Description of the Artwork “Friends”
This exquisite piece by Ekaterina Campbell invites viewers into an intimate moment between a young woman and her feline companion. The realism style, executed with exceptional precision, emphasizes the softness of fur, the sparkling eyes full of loyalty and love, and the protective gesture of the woman's hand. The portrait transcends mere representation, delving deep into themes of friendship, care, and the silent conversations shared between a pet and its owner. The tender portrayal of this alliance against the vignette of domestic life celebrates the everyday beauty and emotional depth of animal companionship.

Ekaterina Campbell, United Arab Emirates
I have been drawing and painting for as long as I can remember. Born in the former USSR, in 1974 I painted an image of a dying planet with gouache on paper, long before environmental concerns became widely discussed. In pursuit of artistic growth, I moved to California as a young adult to study art. I dedicated myself to learning from the old masters, particularly delving into Rembrandt's techniques at Lance Richlin Atelier. These years of study and practice laid the groundwork for my artistic style, blending classical mastery with contemporary themes. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to showcase my work in exhibitions and create commissioned portraits. Each piece reflects my dedication to storytelling and my desire to capture the essence of my subjects.
