Holidays by the sea

Natali Shevale, Ukraine

I was born and live in Ukraine. Since childhood, my favorite pastime has been drawing. My first book about painting was the book "The Life of Leonardo". Then I watched a film about the great Leonardo da Vinci. I remember what a huge impression both the book and the film made on me. I felt the world the same way he did, I wanted to study every blade of grass, every flower, everything created by the Creator. And I drew everything I saw. My father was a military man and we were constantly moving from place to place, so there was no opportunity to get a special art education and I studied on my own. The dream of becoming an artist never left me for a moment. I applied my talent everywhere. At the moment, I am taking painting courses and continue to study further. As for my style, I like to try different things, I do not like monotony. My teachers are the Almighty and the Universe! My inspiration is nature and beauty! I constantly visit exhibitions of other artists and everything related to art. I really want my paintings to bring joy, peace, love, happiness and light to the house where they end up! I will be pleased if my paintings evoke emotions, since I put a piece of my soul into each of my works. With gratitude, Natalie.
