Lena Noble

Biography

Lena Noble is a self-taught artist who was born in Crimea and moved to USA in 1998. She has MA from Moscow State University of Culture and Arts in classical piano. She studied music, but painting and drawing was always a big part of her universe and her real passion. A few years ago, this passion took a center stage in her life.

Her favorite subject is animals, especially livestock. She works in oils, and she is inspired by representational artists-old masters and contemporary ones.

She paints in realistic style, trying to capture not only the likeness but the very soul of an animal.

Studying music professionally helped her develop appreciation of beauty and art in general and gave an understanding of the importance of discipline and everyday practice in creating art.

Lena currently lives and works in Oregon.
