"My name is Ilya Ibryaev, I am a professional watercolor painter from Moscow, Russia. I'm a member of both the Union of Russian Artists and the International Watercolor Society. My works of art have been shown in multiple exhibitions, biennales, and festivals, both in Russia and worldwide. I have received many awards for my work. The main watercolor technique I'm painting with is alla prima; it is when an artwork is done from the first attempt in full strength, which is an advanced and challenging way of painting both on dry and wet paper surface. My favorite genre is landscape painting, which I most often do en plein air as well as in the studio, when making watercolor paintings from memory and imagination. I also paint portraits in watercolor. My watercolor painting experience spans for many years, starting at the children's art school, then at an art college, department of easel painting, and later I graduated from the art academy. The deep knowledge and extensive experience in watercolor painting allows me to fully express my creativity in this challenging, but very interesting medium. At the Watercolor Academy, I will share with you my knowledge and show you painting techniques that will put your art skills to the next level."
"Hello, my name is Anna Ivanova; I am a watercolor painter from Russia. I paint and draw since childhood and my formal art education started from the age of nine. The subjects I'm most interested in are ballet dancers, portraits and animals. I mostly paint in watercolor, but also in oils from time to time. I participated in numerous international art exhibitions and my watercolors have been awarded with top prices on several occasions. For example, I took the prize in one of the world's biggest art exhibitions in 2012 in Shanghai, China as well as received an award in another international watercolor exhibition in 2016; followed by the award of the watercolor competition in Taiwan. I am a member of the Union of Russian Artists and participated in many joined and solo art exhibitions in Moscow and St. Petersburgh. I am also a member of the International Watercolor Society. At the Watercolor Academy, I will show you my very special painting techniques and explain step-by-step how to achieve good results in watercolor painting."
