Dinara Mirtalipovaさんのインスタグラム写真 - (Dinara MirtalipovaInstagram)「“Field of Dreams”, gouache on paper. In collaboration with @moleskine I was born and raised during the Soviet Era in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. It is located in Central Asia, and culturally it has been influenced by so many surrounding cultures from Imperial Russia and China and the Silk Road to the Ottoman Empire and Persia. All the women in my family were artsy. It wasn’t considered a talent, but rather a norm. Growing up, I never considered myself an artist. I enjoyed drawing and doodling, that was my comfort zone, but I studied computer science and programming languages. As I got older and began experimenting with different techniques and mediums, I realised it was more than a hobby. I have always been an advocate for folk art. Most folk artists are not professional artists; they simply love to paint. I’ve met many people who don’t consider themselves artists simply because they are amateurs and don’t have an art degree. I always encourage people of all ages to try art, and if it brings joy to their heart – they can call themselves true artists.
