Frosty morning in Norway

Svitlana Yanyeva, Ukraine

In my watercolor paintings I aim to capture the beauty and diversity of the world around us. My main source of inspiration is travel, which allows me to immerse myself in different cultures, landscapes and atmospheres. My paintings take the viewer to fascinating corners of the planet, from picturesque seascapes to the cosy streets of urban labyrinths, from the vibrant nature of the tropics to the muted tones of sea pebbles on the northern coasts. Marine landscapes have a special place in my art. They remind us of the boundless vastness and energy of the sea, inviting us to adventure and exploration. Plants and animals encountered on my travels become the subjects of my attention on watercolor paper. I strive to convey their beauty and uniqueness, emphasising the importance of preserving the natural wealth of our planet. Through my watercolor creations, I invite viewers on a captivating journey to different corners of the Earth, inspiring us to care for our world and appreciate its incomparable beauty.
