Tutankhamun (1341 — 1324 BC) was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ruled 1332–1324 BC). He married Ankhesenamun, third daughter of Akhenaten (formerly Amenhotep IV), a famous radical religious innovatior, who put the worship of the god Aten in Egypt. Tutankhamun was nine years old when he became king, but the real rulers of the country were two regents - Ay and Horemheb. Pharaoh ended the worship of the god Aten and restored the traditions of Egyptian culture and religion. His reign was close to the apogee of Egypt as a world power. Tutankhamun died when he was 18 (or 19) years old. Such an early death can be believed to think it was unnatural. Tutankhamun could be killed by an order of his own regent Ay, who became a pharaoh after his death.

About working process:

I was touched deeply by the young Tutankhamun's story of life and sad facial expression of his portrait golden mask. It was obvious for me to choose a material for the creation. What else would portray a gold in a best way, then a dry straw stalks, shining in the sun? As the width of it's stalks is not wide and very long, I cut them to pieces, that would depict some ton - light or dark. Then pasted them, one by one, on a wooden board. That's why you have an impression of some "straw mosaic", when you look at the finished artwork. It took me 1.5 month.

This is a unique, one of a kind artwork, because I had never used this technique before, and I am not going to return to it in future.

No previous owner, new. It is in my studio now.

Hello, everyone!

My name is Irina, I am a painter from Kyiv, capital of Ukraine.

Art is what I do, and what I love. I believe we all start out as artists, and at some point, each of us has picked up a pencil or marker to connect with our creative side. I just decided to stick with it and have stayed committed to developing my style, which consists of a wide range of realism, symbolism, neo-impressionism and a little bit of both. My subject matter is also wide ranging, consisting of concept, wildlife and fantasy. My favorite genres are: portrait, landscape (especially mountains), animalistics, floristics, illustration. 

I am a M. F. A. While studying painting in Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture, I understood soon that it become a part of my life and world vision. It was amazing change for me, because I always thought about myself as a graphic artist (pen and ink on paper). After the graduating I have illustrated a few books and keep painting until now.

Member of the International Academy of Contemporary Art - Artlookone.

I keep painting to this day. Collectors in France and Ukraine have over 20 of my works. 

Look forward to hear from you soon!

Irina.
