Alina Kaiumova

I was born in Samara, Russia. In 2010 I moved in Saint-Petersburg where I am still living and get inspiration. I had started painting since 2011, I paint mainly oil on canvas, also mastered the technique of working with acrylic, textured paste, gilding. I took a participation in many exhibitions (in Saint-Petersburg, Samara, Moscow, Marl, Dusseldorf), also in virtial ones (my artwork "Space Mystery" was selected as a winner and featured on the cover of March Show "Sky" - Colors of Humanity, USA). I also tried myself as an illustrator for children tales and made 35 pictures for the literary and art edition for preschool and primery scholl age "Odintsovo Tales" by A.Krutikhin, Moscow. I took part in the creation of new collection Autumn 2017 of bags for Moscow brand "Ante Kovac".

The main interest in painting to me is to depict people, their spiritual connection with their inner and outer world; to deduce their peak of emotions through the bends of bodies, in motion and fading. I often accompany my artworks with poetry of own composition. For me, the process of painting is primarily interactive, is the unity of three components: my soul, model or object and canvas. It is their successful interaction that gives birth to the real piece of art.
