Getting To Know Dina Shubin

By Jocelyn Davidson


In the world of painting, one has to exhibit creativity and innovation in order to stand out from the rest. Such can be said for a painter who goes by the name of Dina Shubin whose works are very different from that of other painters because of her unique style. So if one would like to know more about this talented painter, here is a short background on her that would give an idea of this very talented woman.

Originally, she was from Moscow, Russia before she moved to Canada sometime in 1999. She graduated from the Moscow Teachers Training Institute under the Faculty of Arts in 1990. She began her work as a painter here and then moved to Canada in order to further elevate her career.

When she started, her work was a part of art expos in Korea, Japan, and eventually in New York City. As she became more and more famous, her work was featured in many different places such as Florida and even Tel Aviv. Her artworks even reached the European continent and went as far as Norway, Germany and even reached far out countries like Israel, Canada, and even in some parts of the United States of America.

Now for those who are not familiar with her artworks, basically most of her paintings are about women. Now what made her work stand out from the rest of the artists is how she actually painted women in her picture. With her creative mind, she decided to depict women as divine beings who have both the attributes of beauty and power.

What she did was that she combined the color of flesh with some abstract backgrounds. This produced a mix of realistic yet surrealistic effect to her paintings. It was this style that attracted a lot of fans of her work because it was actually not something that most conventional artists would do.

The most interesting thing about her women were their poses. Their poses were actually very celestial like and these poses were very similar to the poses that were done by the Muses in Greek mythology. It was actually because of the poses and the faces of these women that they were able to get that Goddess like look.

Now the thing that she wanted to portray in her creations was her interpretation of Goddess like creatures. Although the women in her artworks were just normal women, she depicted them in such a way that they looked like Goddesses. This showcased inner beauty and even power just like the Muses or even the Greek Goddesses in mythology.

So basically, these are some of the things that one would want to take note of if he would do some research on Miss Shubin. Her works are extraordinary and very pleasing to the eyes because of her unique use of colors and her very unique style of painting the human figure. She is definitely an artist that is able to stand out from the rest because her style is very rare these days and one can tell that it is her.
