Abstract art directly from the artist
I am visual artist Svetlana Ruoho, and my academic education from the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts has equipped me to master both precise portraiture and a freer, semi-abstract expression. An abstract artwork is at its best when it fills the mind with positive energy and brings enduring beauty to a space. This is what I have aimed for with my works.
The power of nature and the symbolism of colors
The semi-abstract style present in my works allows for playful interaction between contrasts. For example, the heat of a flame or the graphic forms of trees can serve as the soul of a painting, even when they are blended into layered oil or acrylic paint.
Abstract art is not just color on canvas; it is the result of a meticulous process:
- Deliberate composition: Every abstract painting begins with the planning of composition and proportions.
- Sensory materials: Alongside oil and acrylic paints, I often use natural materials and collage techniques to bring depth and three-dimensionality to my works.
- Continuous inspiration: Forest paths, light filtering through branches, and the cunning gazes of animals often appear in the background of my works.
Frequently asked questions about acquiring art
How do I recognize a semi-abstract work?
In a semi-abstract work, you can see references to reality, such as a horizon, a tree trunk, or the shape of a flame, but they are not photographically precise. This style allows room for your own imagination.
Is an abstract painting suitable for modern interior design?
Absolutely. Abstract and semi-abstract art is an excellent way to bring color and harmony into the home. It creates layers within a space and often serves as a conversation starter.
Can abstract works be commissioned according to personal preferences?
Yes, I am happy to create commissioned works. If, for example, you would like a work of a certain size that features shades of flame or the feel of a forest, please do not hesitate to contact me.Also explore my commissioned art.
