Dans un Vase Japonais (2023) Painting by Albina Urbanek

I am French of Tatar origin. My artistic work draws its sources from my native country.

My initial profession has nothing to do with painting but I have always been attracted to art.

When I arrived in I decided to make my childhood dream come true.

Autodidact, over the years, I studied and improved several techniques such as oil or acrylic painting, drawing, watercolor and pastel. At the beginning I worked more in the figurative style, creating landscapes, still lifes, portraits and other compositions.

Not liking being locked into the same type of work, I experimenting with other styles.

Lately I've been working more and more in rather naive and fantastical styles.

And, depending on my mood, I come back from time to time to figurative.

More recently I complete my artistic expression with pottery, ceramics and stained glass. Particularly attracted by the work of glass which allows to combine colors and light which I transpose both in the classic method (lead) and in the Tiffany method (copper).

I hope that my work will help the public to create their own mental world or to feel their dreams and, perhaps, realize them.
