Ekaterina Smirnova

Atmosphere – masses of evaporating water in the air – describes Ekaterina Smirnova’s paintings best. Working in watercolour, Mrs Smirnova has a unique approach to this traditional medium. Multi-glazing and repeatedly splashing the painting, Ekaterina’s singular technique best represents the depth of the air, fading the further objects and sharpening the edge of the closer ones.
