bluecrowcafe:Natalia Smirnova creates dark spirits, angels, renaissance landscapes, and apparitions
bluecrowcafe:Natalia Smirnova creates dark spirits, angels, renaissance landscapes, and apparitions with simple watercolor and tempera on cardboard. The St. Petersburg based artist’s illustrations harken back to earlier times. (the work of Gustave Dore and Italian Baroque painter/print maker Salvator Rosa come to mind). The artist currently works as a Russian icon restorer in addition to her creations as a painter. -- source link
