Hi, I am Alina.
And I love being creative. Here you can find out more about my past and future passion projects. I paint what I love – mostly with oils. Some of my works are still available, so take a look in my shop.
If you’re interested in my music I have good news – I have some stuff planned. More information below.
Feel free to sign up for my newsletter and make sure you won’t miss out.
Have fun!
Shop
Thank you so much for your incredible support during my recent shop drop! Although the print-shop is currently closed, I am excited about the future and all the amazing things I can now offer (which wouldn’t have been possible without you!) 💫
With your help, I can invest in a fine art print printer, allowing me to provide even higher quality products moving forward. I can’t wait to share what’s next with you! But you’ll have to be patient for a while yet 😉
new prints will be available in the future ♡
what i paint
I have always loved nerd-stuff. Growing up immersed in the worlds of Star Trek, the Ghibli movies and Doctor Who, listening to “Die 3 ???” on repeat, and playing Mario on my Nintendo DS, I discovered a love for exploring new fantasy realms- and wow, that’s a feeling I never wanna miss again.
Equally important to me is art; I’ve been painting since childhood, captivated by the creativity of various artists.
So, what’s the most natural way to blend these two passions?
I combine them!
In my painting series, “Nerd Makes Art,” I reimagine iconic artworks by infusing them with elements of pop culture. For instance, Van Gogh’s cypress transforms into Howl’s Moving Castle, and Dali’s elephant becomes an AT-AT. But I want to take it even further.
Instead of randomly mixing different pieces, I plan to merge the works of a single artist with a specific genre. Exciting, right? My first series will be a fusion of Van Gogh and Ghibli, and that’s something you don’t wanna miss.
Van Gogh X Ghibli
My first crossover series blends the artistry of Van Gogh with elements inspired by Ghibli. I plan to create 5 to 7 paintings, all in their original sizes! You can follow my progress on YouTube and Instagram—feel free to check it out! I’m aiming to complete this series by September, and I would love to showcase all the pieces together in an exhibition, but that’s a goal for the future.
Did you know...
… that I also make music? I’ve been playing the piano for more than 15 years. I had several performances at my university where I showed my own compositions and mash-ups. When I learn a song I don’t just play it how it was composed. I love improvising and adding some spice to it.
A few years ago I started composing. My next EP with 3 tracks will be released soon.
For some of my pieces sheet music is available. You can download it for free here:
