ARTIST PROFILE

Picture
 
Welcome to my website
​
​I am Natalia Vidyakina, an artist and author, creating a variety of artworks.

There are paintings & drawings in various media, 
also a creation of children's picture books.


I am a Russian-born New Zealander. My partner and I live in the Wairarapa,
Wellington region, on a lifestyle block (a small farm).

 Surrounding us the beautiful nature, the wildlife and the farm pets are so inspiring!
I like travelling, always holding a notebook and camera, recording and sketching, impressions.

"Your work is always such a joy’, telling people about my artworks.
 I paint what I see around, New Zealand is truly beautiful country.
To be a self-taught artist, I can say that nature is my only art teacher, where I am learning and getting inspired. 
People said I have created my own style, that is good to know.
I really enjoy canvas painting and creating of children's picture books.

For these years of art journey, I have held five Solo Exhibitions in 2016, 2017,  2018, 2018, 2020
and also being in several group exhibitions in the great Wellington city and now in the beautiful Wairarapa region.
​Some of my artworks have been sold to the people from New Zealand, Russia, Australia, the United States of America, the United Kingdom.

 Locally in Masterton, I self-published four children's picture book, really happy to see and hold them as finished products. They are so cute and colorful!
