Oksana Ossipov
Photographer, artist, dreamer.

Every person has a passion in his or her life. My passion is art in all of its possible forms. In my world, there is no such thing as talent; there is only practice and hard work. Humans are capable of mastering almost any imaginable skill, and I intend to prove it. I have worked on a multitude of projects, starting with traditional media and diversifying into the digital world. I enjoy applying traditional techniques to digital projects and mix media in unusual combinations.

I believe that art should be complex and highly structured. My process is to think the project through, meditate, and only then execute. This allows me to manage time well and to reduce the trial and error stage to a minimum. A constant drive to create art never lets me procrastinate. Even while walking down the street, I am most likely working on my next art piece.

I am a perfectionist. One of the reasons why I enjoy digital media is the possibility of easy adjustment and evolution of the artwork. It is much more difficult to perfect a traditional painting, because one usually has to start over or re-paint certain parts. With a digital creation, I can always go back and retouch it or start from an earlier version. Most of the artworks that I have created are “incomplete;” there is always something that I want to change and perfect even more.

Currently, I am working on digital illustration, game development, and interactive web and mobile design skills. These are just a few areas that I will continue to pursue in the future.
