Hi, I’m Kristina.

I’m a watercolour artist based in the UK.

I teach painting through process, attention, and mastering the fundamentals before anything else.

For a long time, I thought I wasn’t good at art.

I was told I didn’t have talent, and it shaped how I approached anything creative, careful, hesitant, angry at times.

But I kept coming back to it.

And over time, I realised it wasn’t about talent at all.

It was about staying.

In the messiness of painting and all the emotions that came with it.

In the uncertainty and constant questioning of my life decisions.

In the boredom of doing the same thing over and over again.

And from that, looseness and freedom, and something that might resemble talent emerged.

Now I run in-person workshops, small studio sessions, and one-to-one painting sessions, all built on the same foundations.

These days my focus has shifted more toward teaching and helping other artists develop their own voice and technique, while continuing to have a devoted personal art practice and creating original collections, prints, stationery and licensed artwork from my studio in Farnham, Surrey.
