Blooming Tree, Mountain wiew (2021) 미술작품 Valentina Pushkareva 로

Valentina Pushkareva, an artist from Russia, was born in a small town 200 km from Moscow. Since childhood, she drew and studied music, but at the age of 14 she clearly made her mind to devote her life to art.This decision came with the influence of wonderful teachers whom she met on her life path.

It was a miracle to get acquainted in her childhood with the technique of batik (painting on silk), while living in a small industrial city, which in principle, is quite far from any art.

Then Valentina graduated from the university in the city of Vladimir (the golden ring of Russia), where Tatyana Grebneva, a world-class artist, and a member of the Union of Artists of Russia, taught decorative arts including very advanced training in batik. Meeting Mrs. Grebneva was also a great luck.

In  2008 she moved to St. Petersburg, where for more than 10 years she worked as a textile designer (and even here the main activity was related to fabrics).

At the age of 24 she was admitted to the famous School of Design “Art Future” and studied the course of costume design. The graduation collection made by Valentina was featured in the exhibitions Pret-a-porte Paris (2010) and London (London Graduated Fashion Week 2011)

With the advent of children (2015), she switched to freelance mode in textile design, and returned to painting. She also had to divert her attention from batik that requires a lot of time, elaboration and concentration and started painting watercolor pieces. In watercolor she mostly practices the plots taken from landscapes, from nature itself. 

Valentina lived in Turkey for more than two years, and it is from there that she draws her bright and rich colors. It was there that she began to work a lot from life with watercolors, and then transfer these compositions to hot batik.

Sinse 2023 Valentina works and lives in Germany.
Currently, Valentina concentrates on the hot batik technique. Since 2023, she has been a member of the International Batik Guild, and in 2024, her works were presented at an exhibition in England.

Color is very important to her because she believes that color tones convey the emotional message of work

She insists that art should not leave the viewer indifferent, and the task of an artist is to please the audience, to show the endless beauty and triumph of life, the harmony of nature, which is given to us to contemplate, draw the viewer’s attention to everyday little things that we tend to overlook.

She comments: “I want my works to reflect the beauty and brightness of this world, bring joy and remind of how beautiful and diverse this planet is: the feast of life, richness, fullness, and variety.”
