About Natasha

Hello! My name is Natasha Bakovic, an academic painter and the founder of Bakart Studio. I graduated from the I. Repin Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, where I specialized in classical techniques of painting, drawing, and composition. Since 2012, I have been working as an independent artist, creating original paintings and leading art courses in Poland, France, and now Croatia.

I have a particular passion for oil painting—for me, it is a dialogue with time and color. This technique allows for layering, refining details, and creating rich, deep colors with smooth transitions and vibrant light. I bring this passion to my classes, whether we are working on portraits, landscapes, or still lifes.

I find great joy in working with students—watching your progress, nurturing your creativity, and fostering positive emotions through art. My goal is to provide a warm, supportive space where everyone can enjoy every moment of the creative process.
