My full name is Natalja Picugina. I am a native Russian.I was residing in the beautiful mountians of East Tennessee a few years.A lot of my paintings still are in Tennessee.Now I am living in Latvia, A beautiful resort city on the Baltic Sea. It is place where I was born.Art is my passion. I took art lessons from various artists in Latvia, Russia and Eastern Europe. I have University degree in History. I taught basic art classes to children in elementary school.. I also worked with various artists to organize and teach basic to advanced art classes for adults. I believe art needs to show feelings, expression and technique. My paintings come from my soul. I feel my art reflects a mood of the moment captured in time, something that will never be back. All my paintngs are created on canvas panels. I work with mostly oil, and sometimes acrylics. I work every day to improve my skills and create new paintings. I want to share with you the moments and expressions in my world of paintings. I have sold many of my paintings in person and online at various online galleries. I have recieved very good feedback on the paintings I have sold and continually recieve wonerfull comments and feedback on the paintings I have listed. Please feel free to post your comments and suggestions. I am always ready to hear what you like or my not like about my art.
Thank You for your support and understanding. I will waiting for you...

Dear Belka,
I just happened across your work while browsing on the Internet. I love your style and subject matter; your colors are incredible and vibrant, and I love the cross between realism and impressionism. My question is, why don't you paint the same things in big, big, big!!
A fan,
Paula
Fantastic work-almost want to give the big bear a hug-keep it up.

I love your work! I think this is my favorite one(cheriies). The marachino-like stickiness of the cherries gives such a rich appearance....and the glass is exquisite. Thanks for sharing.
