Hi there!
Welcome to my creative world! I’m an artist and designer, driven by a love for nature, color, and imagination. I hope my work inspires you.
I'm Lana Devi
I have a deep passion for beauty in all its forms. I create vibrant, uplifting art and design spaces that are both functional and aesthetically pleasing. My creative process is deeply influenced by the splendor of nature, my inner visions, my obsession with color, as well as my experiences with travel and photography. I hope you find joy in what you see.
Connecting with nature is essential for our well-being, which explains why so many artists draw inspiration from its beauty. Decorating your walls with artwork featuring flowers, plants, and wildlife helps bring the natural world indoors, enhancing the ambiance of any space.
I grew up in a family of artists, where I was always encouraged to express my creativity. However, I spent a long time searching for my true calling and higher purpose. My curiosity about different cultures and countries led me to travel extensively, enriching my perspective. So far, I have visited over 55 countries and lived in Europe, the U.S., Bali, and India.
My artistic journey began with watching my older sister paint. Though I felt inspired, I was also quite impatient, so it took time for me to commit to practicing. Along the way, I discovered a passion for interior design and decided to pursue a degree in architecture. I graduated with a BA in Interior and Environmental Design from the Moscow State Academy of Architecture (MARCHI) in 2016. Around the same time, I started working on private projects and felt a strong urge to paint, although I was often too busy to dedicate myself to it fully.
When the Covid-19 pandemic began, I was in India at the OSHO International Meditation Resort. With everything shut down, I finally had the time and space to focus on painting. Years of practicing Osho meditations helped me shift internally, preparing me for the creative process. I started with abstract landscapes and seascapes using a palette knife, and a year later, I began experimenting with brushes, which allowed me to explore finer details. Since then, I primarily paint with brushes, occasionally using a knife for bold strokes.
After spending three years in India, I decided to move to Portugal, where I currently live. Wanting to deepen my knowledge of art and classical techniques, I enrolled at Ar.Co Centro de Arte e Comunicação Visual in Lisbon (2023-2024).
I work exclusively with oil paints, drawn to their rich texture and organic qualities. My technique involves layering vibrant colors and combining detailed brushwork with loose strokes, creating compositions that are rich in texture and depth.
My goal is to infuse celebration of every moment. My mission is to expand the beauty of the natural world, I strive to infuse spaces with the warmth, sunlight, joy, playfulness and beauty of nature, especially since modern man today spends so much time indoors.
Whether in the spaces I design or the art I create, I strive to make environments that are inspiring, uplifting, and recharging.
