Maria Zimina

"I love oil painting, graphics. I am also an Art Teacher. I was born and raised in Moscow, but St-Petersburg became the love of my life. I want to change the common knowledge about St-Pete as dark and gloomy city. In summer it's full of colors - river boats, sun blinking in the river, many nicely dressed and happy people walking outside. In winter it's monumental beauty is even brighter with the snow in the background. I do lots of city painitngs, landscapes and flowers. A modern persona has a very limited time to stop running and enjoy the beauty of the world. As an artists I feel it's my mission to brijng this beauty into people's everyday life. The key aspect of my art is the mood and I am happy to share it with you."
