Lyudmila Agrich was born in Russia and eventually settled down with her family in Odessa in the Ukraine near the Black Sea. As a child, she was encouraged by her parents to be creative. As a result, she spent several years in musical school and the school of fine arts for children. She was lucky to have had a taste of creativity so early. Lyudmila intuitively knew that moving in an artistic direction was what could bring her happiness and contentment. Before she started her career in art though, Lyudmila received her bachelor degree in Architecture and Fine Art. She worked in the architecture field both in the Ukraine and in the United States for a few years before she felt drawn to start painting.
In 2001, Lyudmila quit architecture and became a professional artist. Painting has become her life, not just her career. She feels fulfilled and happy when she is painting. in the last few years, she has replaced her paint brush with a palette knife. This way she can create bolder, brighter and more powerful images of nature, flowers and people. Her style is considered to be expressionistic impressionism. Over the years, she has been looser with her application of paint, which results in what appears to be movement on the canvas. Her main focus is to capture intimate moments in ordinary life. No matter what she is painting, a landscape, or a little cafe in an old European town, she wants her paintings to speak in the language of human feelings. She tries to avoid creating pictures that are just thought of as merely pretty. Instead, she wants to communicate with people by evoking specific emotions and feelings in them.
SmithKlein Gallery presents new works by Lyudmilla Agrich. Her latest works will be on display until the end of the month.
