When I Became An Artist
How growing up in Russia shaped me. When my husband’s comments prompted me to paint. How the reality of being a painter is different from what you see on Instagram. Why every small step counts. What I love about the tones of color in dark skin. How my international career evolved organically. Why I am so passionate about teaching workshops for other painters.
My Conversation with Tania Rivilis

Tania won the prestigious William Lock Prize from the Royal Portrait Society in London, showed at Christie’s, and had one of her stunning art works shine on a billboard across New York’s Times Square. Recently, she has begun offering art workshops for other emerging painters in Europe.
