I was born in the Republic of Tyva. I started painting my first paintings back in 1998. I chose the technique of oil painting for myself. Working with oil is fascinating, the plastic material allows you to create both a thin layer and a volumetric texture. The brightness of colors and subtle transitions allow you to create unique and inimitable paintings. Then I started trying other techniques - pastels, watercolors, acrylics. They are all very interesting and beautiful in their own way.
I live in amazingly beautiful places and they undoubtedly give me inspiration and strength to live and create. I go out to the open air a lot and write sketches from nature. They vividly convey the whole fragrance. Our planet is beautiful, and I want to share my vision of this beauty through my work and other people. I am a very positive and cheerful person, I love life and I want my works to inspire hope to love, dream and believe in the best in this life.
I currently live in the Republic of Khakassia and paint my paintings there.
to be updatedI studied drawing at the Art Institute of Khakass State University and graduated with honors in 2012.

Since 2000 I have participated in many cities, regional and republican exhibitions.
