ABOUT THE ARTIST
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Hello! I am an artist and illustrator.
I'm endlessly inspired by forests and nature that my home country Latvia is rich with. Also I get my inspiration from human emotions and animals - main themes of my work.
Before I decided to start a path of a full-time artist I graduated from academy in Latvia as a graphic designer. During four years of study I got a lot of useful skills and knowledge that I can use now on my path.
From early childhood I was fascinated by mystical stories and movies and this affected my art in the biggest sense.
Since I'm very sensitive to animals pain, concepts of my works are full of compassion and appreciation of life beings and nature, and objection of cruelty of humanity.
I work from home in my little studio aka living room and this seems the only right way of working to me. Even when I relax, I can behold works that I'm working on and not to lose the connection to my paintings.
I share majority of my works and work processes on social media, so feel free to take a look on my pages:

COMMISSION ME
If you want something created special for you - I’ll gladly help you! You can commission me to paint your own idea, a portrait of your pet, a people portrait, a misty landscape or a watercolor illustration. I will help you to depict your idea, find the best composition, and create the painting that you will love.
The price depends on the complexity and size of the painting, however we always can negotiate the price. Feel free to contact me and ask!

THE PROCESS
Before I begin to work on your painting I will ask for 30-50% of the total price to secure your place and to purchase all necessary art materials. Before starting to work on the painting Itself I create sketches and send them to you for approval. In the process of creating the painting I will send you photos of the most interesting stages to make you sure that the work is in progress. An approximate time of creating a painting started from two weeks to two months, depending on the size and complicity.
I work with oils and watercolor.
