My name is Marina Strijakova and I am a full time artist specializing in original floral and nature paintings and feature products.
Fascinated by the beauty of our planet from an early age, I express myself through my art in oil paintings, pastel artworks and my unique controlled acrylic color flow style, focusing on nature and abstracts.
In my art endeavors, I found that my purpose in life is to take the basic ingredients of canvas, medium and paint, add a recipe of my own imagination and turn the original material things into a piece of art with emotional and aesthetic value.
I love experimenting with paints, mediums, brushes. I love to mix the unmixable. I love to use watercolor techniques in both oil and acrylics. I love featuring my art in everyday use items, clothing, home decor, giftware.
My artworks are digitized into extremely high resolution images and is perfect for manufacturers to license and use on their products. Licensing images of my artwork gives my original floral and nature paintings a second life
