My name is Evgeniya Kostikova, I am a watercolor artist and teacher of fine arts. I live and work in Russia, in Tula. Being an architect by education, I've been in love with watercolor since my studies. However, first time I discovered all the diversity of the world of watercolor was only when I got the opportunity to buy professional materials and learn from famous artists! In my works, I experiment with different watercolor techniques, allowing the paint to play freely on the sheet and make adjustments to my idea. Since 2018 I have been actively teaching, painting with children in my studio, conducting a full-time watercolor course for adults, plein-airs and workshops. At the moment I am a member of the International Watercolor Society, a member of the Union of Professional Artists of Russia, as well as a participant and winner of international watercolor exhibitions and festivals. My works are in private collections in Russia and abroad.
