Online original paintings gallery by Nelly Baksht

“My works are an effort in expression of modern life through the medium of traditional art. They take technology, weave it with beauty, drape philosophy in romance to present a whole image of something new and incredible.”

Seventeen years. That�s a long time in someone�s life.

For Nelly, she spent that period of her life from painting her first brush strokes in elementary school to becoming a lawyer and then going back to her love of art to founding a successful career as a sought-after painter creating art for private collections around the world.

After graduating from Tomsk University in Russia, Nelly was a successful corporate lawyer for many years � but still recalled her creative aspirations as a kid studying at the Youth Art School in Tomsk, an intensive eight-year program.

So, she left her law practice to follow her dream � and in 2008 she graduated from art college with a degree in Graphic Design.

Nelly currently lives in Toronto. She continues training and self-improvement in her creative vision every day.

Referring to traditional classic art techniques as well as modern trends, Nelly creates bright and positive paintings.

Her works can be found in private collections all around the world: Europe, Middle East, Australia, U.S, and Canada.
