ART STUDIO STILIYANA DIMITROVA

Exactly What You Need

Home: Welcome

ABOUT

Hello,

 My name is Stiliyana Dimitrova. I am a Bristol based artist. Born in Varna,  Bulgaria spent half my life by the sea. I am getting inspiration from it. 

  Drawing has always accompanied my life. I got that talent from my dad and aunt. We draw for pleasure. My dad mostly cartoons. My aunt realistic profiles. I love to draw abstract, profiles, subjects and e.t. 

  I graduated from Varna University of Economics, which has nothing to do with the arts , except the building it self. 

 At that time I and my husband decided to move to England. And preferred Bristol to live.

 One day I just wanted to do something that comes from my soul. The year was 2013 and I drew one of my first drawings. Them some pictures followed as gifts for my friends and some sales.  

  At that time our family grew by two people, our daughter and our son. Both love to draw. 

   Now I can inspire my self by implementing new projects and coming up with new ideas.

SMILE AT LIFE. - INTERVIEW


  • Smile at life.

  • 04.12.2021, 13:44 |

  • Smile at life. She does it all the time because she has a beautiful smile and there is understanding and love at home. Because she's a good woman. Because she's noble. Stiliyana Dimitrova painted and gave a portrait of Ivan Vazov, patron of the Bulgarian School in Bristol. Since then, everyone's called her the artist. The painting she does in the few hours available during the day, wants to become a profession. Although she is a graduate financier and has completed a course as a real estate agent and also a hairdresser. She's been painting since she was a kid. Her father and aunt have such inclinations.

  • One day, thinking about life, she decides she has to leave something behind. She pulls out sheets and pencils and starts. Do you remember what you drew?

  • Yes, I remember very well. It was one of the old Volkswagens. I did it with regular colored pencils. And I've been protecting it for a long time. I will show you my second drawing, which I did at the same time. This is Nytiri from Avatar. 


  • How are the ideas for your paintings born?

  • My ideas for paintings are born on the go. Sometime I can start by what canvas size I have or want to use. Other times I prefer to choose the tone and individual shades. Of course, there is also a moment when it is the customer who determines the end result. Most cases are related to moments in life, and more recently to a challenge. I like to challenge myself and be challenged. And this interview.

  • Ballerinas, faces, birds, a tree of well-being, geisha, Argentine tango, what are you trying to do right now?


  • I started with the ballerinas because I was afraid to draw a human body. I wonder if it's going to work, if not! I just had to try and find out if I could. I tried my best, it took a while, but now I know I can and my ballerinas appealed to people and they're already sold out.

  • The parrot was so colorful, I couldn't resist. I  painted it from the box where my drawing tools were. The tree of well-being is a very component picture, in which there is hot glue, real coins, gold leaf, acrylic paint and a little paint for shoes, for splendor.

  • The Japanese geisha...! I really like the look on their faces. Even though they have difficult fates. They're exquisite with the kimonos, the ornaments.

  • Argentine Tango - and it's special! Designed for a former musician who was 100 years old. Very emotional!

  • At the moment, I am perfecting the use of a white pencil on a black sheet. Mixing it with crayons and gel pen. I hope I will be happy with the end result.


  • Your pattern is ethereal and gentle. Despite the modern bright colors you use sometimes, your paintings are delicate and understandable. Do you like abstract painting?


  • Yes. I like  the process of making and applying the details.  Love abstract  sometime is challenge to me , and i need to challenge myself.


  • Competitions are places where we set our clock and learn at what level we are at right now. You participate in golden time talent - an international competition for art. Do you have expectations from this contest?

Yes, I do. I recently found out about this international competition and decided to participate. I chose to present myself with the painting "Tree of Well-Being". The winners will receive an exhibition of paintings in Kiev or Moscow and proposals for cooperation from the organizers of the competition. Each participant will receive a diploma for a British award with unique design, publication in the TOP 100 world talents and an invitation to the annual prize in London in 2022! I'm excited, and i'm very excited!
