Hi!

My name is Lidia. I am a founder of SimpleArtForms

Even though I haven’t realized myself as an artist until my late thirties, I always loved making art as a child. Exploring my artistic path as an adult, I spent a few years working privately with a young talented teacher Anna Fedorenko in Art Studio Picasso, Moscow. I’ve continued my formal education at the Art Academy of Latvia later on, and I keep improving and expanding my skills by taking private lessons and master classes all over the world.

I’ve been asked why I call my project SimpleArtForms…

I think too often we keep waiting for miracles, or something special while forgetting to look at what is right in front of us. There is a lot of beauty in everyday life! Simple, yet delightful forms can be found everywhere – your surroundings, nature… In order to see this beauty, you just need to pause and look around. And maybe start contemplating the question: what really brings the richness to my life…?

With love, Lidia
