Hello everyone, could you check my artist statement for my upcoming exhibit. Thanks in advance. ARTIST STATEMENT Being an artist is being on a constant search for discovery and knowledge and clarity and insight into perception, thought, dreams, emotion, habits and brightness. I transfer my ideas through art and it is the way of my communication. After my immigration to the US, I have been diving in an absolutely new environment with its own culture and language. So, for the first year I had a lot of frustrations and a fear that I would lose myself in this big city. However, one day I was walking around Manhattan and I looked up, and I saw how stunning New York City is. The contrast of sunny light and shadows interact with each other and highlight the structure of the city. NYC is a very unique place with a perfect balance of chaos and the contrast movement of urban life. I brought my sketchbook, my pencil and I just started painting. At that moment I have been starting my new journey as an artist, in this city that gives me the opportunity to create every day.

Hi! I am currently prepare to my exhibit and need a little help. Could you check the text about my creativity process? Thanks in advance. Idea. Everything starts from a little thing. The main idea of my creativity is exploring the world around me to discover something new every time. For me, my perception of the world is a diamond that has a million facets that I can rotate at different angles in search of a new fresh moment, forms, lines, colors and the light breaks down. Preparation. The idea can stem from when I walk around the city or something I've seen online. I document these ideas as soon as possible. Sketching them down as quickly as possible, taking a photograph, writing a note on my phone. Search. This is where fragments of ideas turn into a solid direction. I might have 3-5 snapshots of references. My new artwork can be a one hour experiment or a mindful series of works. Usually I work on a 9”x12” drawing paper. Currently I’m working on large formats of paper. Now I have some inspiration. Sketching with a pencil some small images of the further artwork to look for nice composition, rhythm and mood that I want to express in this work. After that, I move to my favorite part of work, it’s an experiment with form, line and color. I create a final simple sketch to set a composition and color palette of the piece. Release. Once I have my direction, my creative energy spills out. I bring my best watercolor paper, pencil, ink and watercolor paint and express all my emotions and impressions from this landscape. I draw all outlines with black ink, it’s the main framework of my piece. Then, with watercolor and my own visual language I create the moment of the life city. The watercolor paint is pretty flexible to control my creative process during work. The last step is clarification and adding the main emphasis with watercolor pencils or markers.

Could you check my description to the artwork? My creativity is a daily challenge to myself. As an artist, I love to explore nature and the urban world in order to open up to new things and accept myself as an artist.

Could you check my story, please? And thanks in advance. My Story. I am an artist with a background in cgi industry, person who loves to create and build up new things and make the world better. I have always been passionate about design and after moving to NY, I decided to kick off my new career in the design field, so I discovered for myself UX/UI Design. I was drawn to UX/UI because it’s perfect outlet where I can express my approach to solving-problem to create a unique product which meets the requirements of people. I live to learn and I do this through books, movies, listening to other people’s stories and reflecting on my own experiences.

Please, check my short story) My Favorite Place. I like to spend my time outdoors, when I have free time. And my favorite place is a wild forest. The place where you seldom meet people and where you can be in harmony with nature and yourself. I feel myself freely and calmly in the forest. There is always a peaceful atmosphere which makes me think about natural and simple things. I like how the wind rustles through trees to whispers to you something. I like its fresh smell of pine trees and the smell of a wet ground underfoot. Why do I like it? Because I spent all my childhood in the countryside and my family and I often went to our nearest forest. There was a large forest in which were wolves and elks. We usually went far into the big forest and it took one hours to get to the spot with mushrooms and blueberries. In such forest we picked up full baskets mushrooms and after that we were tired and happy went back home. I liked walking through the woods and collect unusual leaves, sticks and wood mushrooms. I had a really big collection of wood mushrooms with different colors and shapes. Sometimes I miss about that time because I used to live in the comfort city and rarely being outdoors. But if I have an opportunity then we try to leave the city to spend our weekend outdoors. After that you feel yourself really good and rested, full strength and so inspired.
