Who is this Russian Painter?
May 27th, 2009 by admin

Several years ago while attending a Sahaja Yoga Birthday Puja seminar in India, I came across a Russian yogini selling her paintings.
What a nice surprise! And she was selling them very cheap. I was that taken that I bought as many of them as i could with the money I had in my kurta pocket.
One of these works now hangs on my bedroom wall – a beautiful painting done in oil paint on cardboard, depicting a snowy winter scene – similar to the one pictured above. Within the cold looking forest – a fire is burning. It’s such a profound and poetic image! The paint work and colours are also great. I get a lot out of it.
Unfortunately I did not get any of the artists contact details. Can anyone out there identify the artist by the signature on the bottom right-hand corner of the painting above? It would be great to have her work on this site. Would any Russian speakers be so kind as to translate this name to English for me? Or if anyone does know her please ask her to contact us through this website’s ‘contact’ page.
Thanks in advance!
