Get to Know the Austin Artist:
Nina Kirpichnikov is a contemporary artist with a background in architecture, but painting has been a lifelong passion.

While trained as an architect, she has always been drawn to the freedom and emotional depth of visual art. Her work reflects a love of experimentation — both in style and in technique — as she explores how color, texture, and gesture can evoke feeling and movement.

She is especially inspired by bold colors and expressive brushstrokes that carry emotion and energy. Whether working in abstraction or more figurative scenes, her paintings often seek to balance spontaneity with structure, intuition with form.
