Still life with Rat :) (2012) Painting by Iryna Tatur

My name is Iryna Tatur. I am from Belarus. When I was a little girl, I painted endlessly and was happy with it :) I painted not only on paper, but also painted walls, furniture and pillows :) I was a brave and confident Little Artist!

Then I graduated with honors from an art college and university. But I lost interest in art suddenly. I betrayed My Dream to be an Artist for many years. I worked as an art teacher for over twenty years and did not paint at all.

I returned to painting already in adulthood. I was afraid that I would live my whole life and would not fulfill My Dream of Childhood  to become a Great Artist. I burst into tears ..

And I remembered when I was little girl, I loved to pick up the feather of a bird and dunk it in ink and draw on paper. It was Real Magic for me :)

So I started paint again!

My Fantastic Artist was reborn! My Way of the Artist was a long, difficult and exciting adventure! My Main Teacher is Nature. Every day I observed the Sky, the Sun and the Moon, smiles of Flowers and bends of Trees, flights of Birds and the charm of Animals :) I admired Women's faces and made thousands of sketches. I painted and searched for Myself, my own Unique Style, my own Unique Soul.

Each of my paintings is an Inspiration, Passion and flight of my Soul :)  I see Beauty and Love in the simplest things. Goddesses, Sorceresses, Funny Cats, Magic Birds, Fairies live in my paintings. And I want to share this Magic, Beauty and Love with you from all my Heart! I want my paintings to decorate houses and galleries:)  I want my paintings to give Smiles, Joy and Belief in the Best when someone is sad :)

I thank every Fan of my art, and every Buyer. My Paintings are in private collections in Belarus, Russia, Germany, Israel, Argentina, USA.

I took part in the exhibitions "Love Line: Picasso, Matisse, Schiele " (2020), "Shunga. Japanese erotic engravings" (Belarus. 2021). "Toulouse Lautrec. Passions at the Moulin Rouge" (2021). "Tattoo in art. Art in tattoo" (Belarus, 2021).

Love lives in my paintings :)

 Thank you :)
