About Olesia Lishaeva
Biography
My name is Olesia I'm a professional artist from the south of Russia. Graduated from an Art College and University in San Petersburg. Member of the Union of Arts of Russia. I have my own studio where I paint every day. All my artworks are made with oil or acrylic paints on canvas or mix media on paper, also I sell prints. I love to use in my art opened colors and to mix materials, meanings, and myths. Traveling influenced my creativity and inspire me in my art. My main inspiration comes from deep inside and through observation of natural scenes. I like to paint etudes transmitting on my canvases the feeling of freedom and reunification with nature. My work most always has a reference to landscape or nature. Mainly, I use palette knife to paint flowers, palm trees, sea and the sunshine which are the main subjects of my artworks. I'm interested in the history and philosophy of myths and ornament. Some of my work is abstracted translations of memories. I've always been genuinely in love with every job I've done. My art is full of colors and emotions and customers said about the good energy of my artworks. I have a lot of sales experience selling my artworks at exhibitions or through social networks.
