Central to my practice is the exploration of the psychological impact of colour and its deep connection to emotional states. Using mixed media allows for the combination of transparency and dense fills that gives the painting depth and a dynamic effect.
When I immerse myself into the painting it’s like a meditation process.
There is only search for truth, freedom and the colour harmony.
Creative biography LARISA STERKHOVA
I am Larisa Sterkhova, abstract artist, born and raised in Russia, currently living in UK.
I am an emerging abstract artist whose journey into the arts began not long time ago. However it has become a significant part of my life now and fills it with a great pleasure. It was not until I committed to painting a lot of time as a form of art therapy that I fully embraced my identity as an artist. This transformative experience deepened my connection to the creative process and solidified my artistic practice.
Artworks
Series Emotions
These abstract pieces are profoundly influenced by my desire to express emotions through visual art and eventually create balance, harmony and safe space for myself and viewers. Using mixed media allows for the combination of transparency and dense fills that gives the painting depth and a dynamic effect.
