My name is Marina. I am a contemporary artist working with oil painting. I am a Russian-born, Netherlands-based artist.

My work invites the viewer to look beyond the facade of everyday life and discover the beauty of the surrounding world.

I work with oil painting on canvas. For me, oil painting is not just a technique, but a means of achieving high ideals, moral purity, and inner harmony. I believe that human life should be beautified. Everything that pleases the eye and warms the soul makes us more human, kinder, and brighter. My paintings reflect the soul’s yearning for light, life, and beauty. I believe that art should awaken a sense of harmony in a person and inspire inner growth.
