Nataliya Soboleva is exhibiting her paintings at the San Ramon City Hall Gallery from May 1-29.

My works are a celebration of the subtle beauty that permeates our daily lives. I find inspiration everywhere, from the intricate patterns of a dried plant to the fleeting colors of a storm-filled sky and the fluid dance of light on water. This exhibition is a culmination of that ongoing observation, a collection of works that celebrate the overlooked details of our world. Through a diverse range of physical media from simple charcoal to the soft colors of pastels to the rich texture of oil paint, I strive to capture the inner beauty of my subjects. My works are rooted in foundational skills and techniques I've honed through years of practice and inspired by the timeless precision of the Old Masters. This body of work is an invitation to pause, look closer, and find the extraordinary within the ordinary.
