MARIA MICHURINA

“I was born in Moscow, Russia. Being raised in a family of physicists, I chose Mathematics as my career path, and that is still a part of my life. After moving to the Pacific Northwest twelve years ago, I started painting. It truly unified my soul. My works are mostly memories of scenes which have been observed, imagined, or seemed to be seen.”

Maria Michurina is a mixed media artist who currently lives and works in Redmond, WA. She has a degree in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics from Moscow State University.

Her work has been featured in group shows, including Art At Kings Oaks, the International Quilt Festival, Cerulean Arts Gallery, and Blue Mountain Gallery. She will be a Resident at James Castle House starting in early February, and is the recipient of various awards including 1st place at the PNW! Quilt Show and the Seattle Co-Arts Scholarship Award.
