"Secrets of the Petals" (2024) Schilderij door Tatyana Barinova

Barinova Tatyana Igorevna
was born on March 13, 1971 in the city of Kostanay.
In 1994, graduated from the Art and Graphic Faculty of ASU. Abaya (Almaty)
, a teacher of art and drawing. Since 2006, has been a member of the Union of Artists of Kazakhstan.
From 1994 to 1996, she worked as a teacher at the Children's Art School in Kostanay.

Filled with sun and summer shining paints, the chamber pictures of T. Barinova bewitch one with their unusual
transparency and sincere feeling. The leading subject of her creative work are flowers, whose splendour is not dictated by
the magnificence of luxuriant compositions but is intensified by the revealed beauty of even unpretentious field bouquets.
The vessels are always emphatically plain and delicate, almost transparent. The artist accentuates the viewer's look on the
essentials, revealing the charm and harmony of the world of flowers, which rejoice one with their short-lived beauty and
perfection. Changing compositions, the artist amazes one with daintiness of her creative manner and peculiarity of the choice
of objects for canvases. T. Barinova does not paint simply still-lives, they are rather «portraits» of natural form, diverse in
colour and plasticity.
In the choice of colours and their combination, the spectator sees the world of senses and moods of the artist herself.
Bouquets may now be baroquely complicated as if demonstrating their splendour, now chastely airy, whose colour structure
is based on gradation of semitones of one or two approximated colours. Permeated with natural feeling, they entangle the
spectator in the process of guessing and recognition, as the artist is fond of looking for unhackneyed themes. Many
compositions really enchant with melodies of unknown names. Not less interesting are well-known and liked cornflowers,
ox-eye daisies, peonies, forget-me-nots as presented by T. Barinova; they give warmth and charm of the meadow motley
grass, of an overgrown garden. The seemingly small genre, feminine at this, arouses imperishable interest of men in her
flowers as well, they admire the artist's canvases without being perplexed.
