Artist’s Statement

"The task of art is to touch the heart".

I am a painter by profession. I paint with oil, watercolors, gouache, charcoal, pastel and acrylic. I graduated from the Repin Art Academy in St. Petersburg. I am a member of the Finnish and Russian painters' associations. I have lived and worked in Finland since 2012.

I paint a lot in nature, which is my source of inspiration. The interaction between man and nature is a whole that touches me as an artist.
I have done numerous portraits for clients. I like to give drawing and painting courses.
My works can be found on my homepage https://www.taideruoho.fi

"I paint air and liveliness in my paintings, in a way that it breaks the two-dimensional surface into a spacious and deepness."
