"From dancing, vibrating light-filled
passages to richly coloured transparent
darks, from cascading wet
washes to staccato dry brush
effects, watercolours can produce
painting effects which no other
medium can match." ~Anonymous
Watercolours vibe different from
the set, because of the unique
serenity of choice it posses, the
artist holding the brush decides the
severity of the paint and art,
and this brings a personalized
swing of emotions to the
final product.
Ms.Maria Mishkareva (
@maria.mishkareva )
is a watercolour artist
based out in Russia.
Watercolours captured
her interest
and it became
the best and the
most fascinating
material for her
to work with, it
inspired her and
taught her many
life lessons. She
connects memories
of childhood
with all the wondrous
works she
created with watercolours, it is a
material that can be easy and hard
to play along at the same time. The
skill of controlling the amount of
water in the paint is an art in itself.
She says, "The magical world of
water, paints & brushes gives you
that absolute freedom of imagination,
unlimited artistic possibilities,
but at the same time you can’t fail
it, you have to give it justice and do
your best". Maria believes in trying
until what you do is the best output
from your side, exploring your creativity.
Rightly as she says, we have
no control over the flow of life, and
even the paints resemble the characteristics
as the flow colour from
the brush is regulated but cannot be
controlled and sometimes the best
choice is to give up and watch the
path of paint create its magical aura.
Maria shares some important life
lessons she has learned from the
art of working with watercolours,
she delineates about how it teaches
you to deal with loss, accept mistakes
and appreciate subtle beauty.
"The things which inspire me can be
very ordinary – it can be anything
from the pack of carrots from the
supermarket to the light, playing in
my wine glass when I am lost in conversation…
I love to notice and picture
those shades, shadows, lights
we don’t seem to notice in our busy
lives – and I am so grateful that so
many people do appreciate my
work and I hope everyone can see
different beauty for themselves
