About me

I am Elizaveta Klimova, a Russian-born artist and future architect, now based in Switzerland.

My journey began early – at just 8 years old, I started formal training at Moscow's Andriyaki School of Watercolor, mastering academic drawing. This foundation led me to the prestigious Moscow Central Art School at the Russian Academy of Arts, where I dove deep into architectural graphics and composition systems for 3 years.

After relocating to Switzerland in 2022, I began studying technical drawing and architecture while continuing to develop my artistic practice. I am currently an apprentice at Zumbühl & Heggli Architekten, where I work on real architectural projects and learn professional standards. This period combines creative growth with practical architectural skills.

What I Offer

Custom Paintings – Creating personalized artwork based on your ideas

Original Collection – Unique pieces from my artistic journey, each with its own story
Hand-Drawn Visualizations – Authentic, handmade visuals that stand out in today's digital world

I work with acrylic, watercolor, oil, and pencil, and I am always open to commission projects that explore new ideas and creative challenges.

My Philosophy

For me, art goes beyond copying what we see. It is about turning emotions into clear visual ideas and finding balance between opposites. My approach combines instinct with careful planning, focusing on the inner structure of the work rather than just copying reality.
