Biography

Yakupova Irina Yurievna. I was born in 1975 in Tatarstan.

From early childhood, I remember my interest in creativity with my hands: I loved tinkering, carving wooden figures, sewing, knitting, sculpting with clay and plasticine, and, of course, drawing.

And, although my education is not connected with creativity, at different times I was fond of different types of it: painting walls with prints, sewing soft toys, modeling clay sculptures. The period of making dolls in the Waldorf style stood out, I sewed them to order. And all these periods were periodically interspersed with drawing, but I did not pay serious attention to painting.

Now I devote a lot of time to this type of creativity - I paint pictures, mainly with watercolors and oil pastels in the style of realism. The most important thing for me is to convey through the paintings a state, a feeling of special inner comfort, so that the person looking at the painting feels peace, tranquility and warmth.

And a few words about how these paintings are painted. I have devoted many years of my life to spiritual development, energy practices and meditation. For some time I lived in India, studied in Ashrams and spiritual centers of this amazing country.

During painting, the very state that is taught by spiritual teachers and masters comes by itself. This state is always transmitted through creativity, and you can easily feel it if you tune in to the atmosphere of the picture. That is why these paintings bring such a favorable energy into the room in which they are located, have a positive and healing effect.
