Sophie Marts is a contemporary artist from Russia living in Serbia. Her passion for art emerged in childhood, leading to a decisive decision: to attend art school and pursue a degree in design and architecture. This early decision laid the foundation for a multifaceted artistic exploration that later encompassed a variety of painting and drawing techniques.
Sophie studied with leading masters, receiving private lessons, which significantly enriched her artistic skills and knowledge. She specializes in realism, working in a classical style. Her portfolio includes landscapes, floral arrangements, and portraits of people and animals. Sophie uses a variety of techniques, such as pastel, tempera, and pencil drawing, striving to convey light, texture, and the mood of nature and weather.
Moving to Serbia opened up new sources of inspiration for her—beautiful landscapes, cities, and flowers, which are reflected in her work. For Sophie, painting is not just a profession, but a significant part of her life and a profound form of self-expression. Her dedication to art is reflected in every piece, and she takes pride in the creativity and effort invested in each one.
Her works have been exhibited in both Russia and Serbia and are included in various private collections. Sophie invites you to explore her work and hopes that her paintings will resonate with you, bringing you joy and inspiration.
My work focuses on atmospheric pastel paintings, often combining realism with imagination. I explore futuristic cityscapes, moody environments, and dreamlike urban spaces that feel both familiar and distant.
