"The Genius is one percent of inspiration and ninety nine percents of sweat " Tomas Edison. We do not know where our creativity comes from , but I believe mine comes from Universal Spirit. As an artist I feel my creations expends and enlightens my consciousness. I began my career as an artist waving tapestries of my own original design. They later became a part of interior in many homes and one is in a museum. With the berth of a computer I shifted my deep fantasy nature to digital artworks and started creating designs for various industries. My artworks becomes a beginning process for interior designers, decorators and designers of textiles.I use different styles and media in my art and see further use for it. I am very happy to be able to create and to expose my art trought todays internet technology. I hope many can find my art useful and inspire your own creativeness. Peace and Love to all.

I was born into a family of scientists in Moscow. I began to weave tapestries in 1978-79 and developed a collection of tapestries which I displayed at four exhibitions in Moscow; including the Central Exhibition of Decorative and Applied arts. My collection attracted a great deal of attention at those exhibitions and I became known for the beauty and mystery of my images. A documentary, " As Children, We Liked to Draw", was made about me and my art. My interests in art are varied. In 1980th I created a collection of ceramic sculptures and jewelry which was exhibited at Jacqueline’s Gallery at 132 East 61st in New York City. I also designed a fashion collection of hand woven coats, skirts and and original shawls. I sent one of my skirts and shawl to Nancy Reagan as a gift. In a last 10 years I created a number of exotic collages made from combination of colored paper, p fabrics , batik, hand drawings, guash and water colors layered, shaped and outlined in my own evolved technique. The original peace is scanned and digitized, so it could be printed in variety of sizes on paper or canvas.
