Would you mind telling us about your training in Russia? How are classes organized in art school? I love the "painterly realism" that is often associated with Russian artists and I love the Repin/Serov style of brushwork, how is this taught?

I'd be quite interested in the aforementioned as well.
Gorgeous brush work and moods, Victoria. Thank you for sharing with us.

Hi Victoria !
I 'm very impressed by the ability you have when you compose your landscapes and by the pure colors in your painting figure -face.
Initially i thought your sleeping figure was a watercolor. Do you use
a turpentine at first?Do you paint wet into wet?..or you use the glazing and scrubbing after the painting is dry ?
