Here’s a first fruity still life in the series! It’s a painting of three persimmons. These persimmons came from my mom’s garden and were very tasty! ^.^

I haven’t used watercolors in years, but now it felt like I want to experiment with them. I also always feel upset for eating all of the beautiful fruits and veggies without painting them first! While oils and acrylics are quite a hassle to set up, both have limitations, watercolors are pretty easy to work with. The paint can be reactivated on the palette, there’s minimal cleanup, and it can be used pretty much anywhere.

Available for sale!

Hi! My name is Oksana Ossipov, and I’m a visual artist and photographer. I was born in Ukraine and currently reside in the area of Dallas, Texas. My formal education includes a BFA in Digital Media Art from San Jose State University. After moving to Texas, I started to focus on my fine art skills and figurative art in particular. I studied for 5 years under Michael Mentler at the Society of Figurative Arts. Through my life, I’ve also acquired a multitude of skills that include web development, sculpting, photography, art studio and business management, and baking awesome blueberry scones! I’ve been trying to fully devote myself to the art over the past few years. I’m trying to learn and practice as much as I can. However, the workshop, class, and art supply costs present a certain financial challenge. If you like my work and want to support me, I would truly appreciate it! I have a shop full of artworks and creations, but even just sharing my art or social media pages would help a lot. Thank you so much!
