Russian, Natalie Rozenbaum, born in Russia in 1981, grew up in the picturesque and historic Siberian city of Krasnoyarsk. Steeped in history, the city also is a powerful industrial center. Situated along one of the most beautiful rivers of Siberia, the Enisey, Krasnoyarsk is surrounded by mountains, giving an interesting flavor to the city views, and no doubt inspiring Rozenbaum to later specialize as an artist in cityscapes.

For five years, she studied fashion and textile design at the prestigious Omsk State Technological Institute in Russia where she excelled, graduating with honors in Design.

It is clear, too, to see the influence of the French Impressionists in her control of color tones and the joined-up modulation of paint that is a trait of the French tradition. Rozenbaum’s style is truly expressive, characterized by a refined use of color and texture that richly embellish her paintings.
