Rina is a self-taught artist exploring the space between simple forms, abstraction, and emotion. Rina is her artistic pseudonym; her real name is Katya Nikolaeva. Without formal academic training in art, she approaches painting intuitively, experimenting with different styles while gradually developing her own visual language. Her work is inspired by rain, music playing through headphones, fleeting moods, and quiet moments of introspection. Influenced by artists such as Picasso, Dalí, and Bosch, Rina is less interested in depicting a specific story than in capturing a feeling — something that exists between form, color, and emotion.
