Paintings By Artist Dina Shubin

By Rhea Frazier


There are few female painters who present the female form in an attractive and intriguing manner. Dina Shubin is one of the most exceptional artists of her time with her extremely visual paintings of women engaged in dance or playing some type of musical instrument. Her figures are well known for their elongated bodies and the calm and dreamy expressions they wear on their delicate faces.

She is a 1990 graduate of a Moscow teacher's school. Nine years after that she relocated to Canada and since then has displayed her work in galleries and art shows all over the world. Her distinctive and feminine style is very easily recognizable once individuals begin to follow and appreciate her work.

If you are an art collector or would just like to own paintings that depict strong but feminine women, then one or more of her works is a great choice. The soothing style she has creates these paintings of women at their very best and most relaxed. One of her works, "Dreamy Day, " is a painting of a beautiful young woman sitting on a window seat with a pensive and faraway look in her eyes. She looks comfortable in her surroundings and seems to be daydreaming or thinking a pleasant thought. Another painting depicts the closeness of friends. "Sharing a Secret" is a picture of two friends who are exchanging a confidence between them. The women appear very close and very fond of each other. It is a friendship we would all like to have.

She has many works that feature women and music and some with just music. "Flute Queen" features a beautiful, dark-haired young woman intently playing the flute. "Girl in Blue" is similar but we cannot see the young woman's face. "Violin" is an abstract work with a violin as the main focus in the painting. Other instruments painted with women include the guitar, harp and cello.

This talented artist has other types of work for sale including abstracts. They are wonderful bursts of vibrant colors and sharp edges, infused with light and energy. Some of the paintings available include "Abstract Composition, " "Play of Light, " Composition N1, " and "Composition N2.

The artist apparently also loves blooming flowers. She has many paintings that depict this type of foliage at their very best. Some examples include "Tall Vase, " "Sunny Day, " "Red Bouquet, " and "White Bouquet." The varied vases and delicate flowers are all very different but the final result is realistic and subtly vibrant. These works would make wonderful pieces for a sunny kitchen or light-filled sun room.

She is a woman of many talents as she also works with still life paintings. She seems drawn to the smooth and flat curves of bottles as many of her works depict just that. Some of these include "Bottles on the Table, " "Fancy Bottles, " and "Fancy Bottles in the Light."

Add quality works of art to your own personal collection with some of these paintings. They will fill up empty walls and provide instant conversation starters at parties or gatherings. Some of her newer works will intrigue and delight your art enthusiast friends. She continues her theme of calm and tranquility with her painting "In Reflection" where a girl leans on the edge of a rowboat and stares at her reflection in the waters around her. "In Blue Light" and "Cello" are works that continue to feature young women with their favorite musical instruments.
