SVETLANA VALUEVA — Some are born knowing who they are and where they are going. Others spend their entire lives trying to find out. Some never do. Svetlana Valueva has always known.
Born in Moscow on the 24th of October, 1966, Ms. Valueva remembers drawing and painting as a toddler. While many of us look back fondly on the loftier days of crayons and finger painting, Ms. Valueva had been painting seriously at 18 months of age. Her mother recently found a painting of a bird, a dog-like animal, and a queen confirming her age as 18 months.
Ms. Valueva’s father, an artist, recognized her talent and became her first and most important teacher, encouraging her to paint alongside him in his studio. At five, Ms. Valueva began writing poems and stories expressing the feelings of the characters she drew. This treasured childhood art is part of her parents' "private collection".
Thirteen years of state structured curriculum taught by both the academic school and institute established Ms. Valueva's art and drawing skills in "social realism". Like many children of the arts, Ms. Valueva was accepted at art school at age six. She began her formal training and two years later took part in local, countrywide and international juried exhibitions. At the age of eight she entered a Cuban International exhibition, receiving a gold medal and 10 lbs. of Cuban sugar as her prize.
