-- Artist LARISSA MORAIS was born and raised in Moscow is a graduate of the Moscow Theatrical Arts Institute and attended the Graduate School of Restoration and Conservation. Her brush creates a realistic impression as if it could not possibly be anything but a photograph. Her favorite subject is the human figure, from which she brings a reality to the paintings where attention to detail is as strong as attention to the character of the model. All her artwork begins with a sketch that she later paints onto a large black canvas. Her delicate technique is with very thin layers of oil paint, while using the black background for shadowing. She says the most difficult thing is to part with her art. "It is always bittersweet when parting with a painting, however it's always validating". Larissa's paintings are moving and intoxicating, filled with such lush imagery and sensuality. Larissa's gift of bringing reality to a bare canvas is a true testament of what a great artist she truly is. (Lauren Leigh Jolliffe - Littoral).
