Irina Pushkareva wishes to bring the sense of serenity and harmony of nature through her intricate oil paintings of wildlife. Watching animals in the wild was proven to reduce fatigue and stress, and bring amazement, joy, and peace to one's life. No wonder why people spend so much money and travel long distances for whale watching trips and safaris! Watching animals often helped Irina to find the courage to stay true to herself, and brought her peace and harmony of the natural world, which empowered her to work hard on what she loves to do the most - creating. Irina wishes to bring the same feelings to you through the power of her art.
