It was a short trip across the Murmansk region, located beyond the Polar Circle. It was a gorgeous tundra. The rich flora, consisting mainly of mosses, lichens and berries, created an extraordinary palette of ocher, purple, silver and a little green. And in contrast to them was the deep and rich blue of the Barents Sea. This place caused me a storm of emotions because the nature of that region is so different from the landscapes I am used to.

Some of these paintings have already found their new home in various countries, but a lot are still available for purchase througn Etsy and Daily Paintworks.
