Los Abrigos,Tenerife

Hello and welcome! I'm Raissa, a passionate artist who finds joy in turning emotions, stories, and nature’s beauty into one-of-a-kind paintings. My creative journey began in childhood — with pencils, paints, and endless curiosity. But it wasn’t until 2019 that I made the bold decision to pursue art full-time, and I haven’t looked back since.

I work with a variety of mediums, including oil, watercolours, acrylics, pastels, and mixed media. I love combining textures, materials, and natural elements to create pieces that are not only visually striking but also emotionally meaningful. Many of my works are enhanced with natural stones, gold leaf, pressed flowers, or other unique details that make each piece truly one of a kind.

Every painting is handmade in my home studio — a cozy creative space where I paint daily. I’m always exploring new ideas, inspired by nature, culture, everyday moments, and dreams. My art is a reflection of constant experimentation and a deep love for beauty in all forms.

Over the years, my artwork has traveled far and wide, becoming part of private collections across the globe. Whether it's a bold impasto floral, a soft pastel portrait, or a vibrant abstract on canvas or glass — each creation is made with heart.

Thank you for supporting independent artists and handmade art. I’m always happy to answer your questions or create something special just for you.

Warm wishes,
Raissa

Artistic background

I was born in Moscow, Russia, but I’ve been living in the beautiful Canary Islands, Spain, for over 25 years. Surrounded by light, ocean, and vibrant natural colors, this place continues to inspire much of my artistic work.

Although I hold a university degree as a teacher of foreign languages, art has always been my true passion. I’ve been painting since childhood, constantly drawn to color, emotion, and the expressive freedom of creating something by hand. In 2019, I made the decision to fully dedicate myself to art — and I haven’t looked back since.

Today, I work as a full-time artist in my home studio, creating both original paintings and handmade jewelry. I use a variety of materials, including oils, watercolors, pastels, alcohol inks, and glass paints. I love experimenting with textures and techniques, often combining traditional methods with a modern, expressive style. Each painting I create is a personal story told through color and brushstrokes — a blend of emotion, memory, and imagination.

Alongside painting, I also design one-of-a-kind resin jewelry using natural elements, pigments, glitter, and other materials. For me, jewelry is like wearable art — small pieces that bring joy, color, and personality into everyday life.

My artworks are part of private collections worldwide. Every item I offer is made with care, love, and attention to detail — and I’m always happy to create something special or answer any questions you may have.

Thank you for supporting original handmade art. It’s an honor to share my creative journey with you.

Warm wishes,
Raissa
