Lake Landscape in the Forest by Aligory in Berlin

My name is Alina. I am a mural artist and portrait painter. My artistic path developed gradually: I practiced a lot, copied artworks, and later completed three years of digital art courses that gave me a strong foundation in composition, light, form, and working with scale. This base still helps me today when I create large murals. I painted my first wall at home, and that moment made me realize that I wanted to work not only with a canvas, but with entire spaces. I love how a mural can transform a place, change its atmosphere, and give it a unique character. I mainly work with acrylics and brushes. It’s important to me that this material is safe for interiors, has no strong smell, and provides a warm, painterly result. Acrylics allow me to combine clean lines, semi-realism, and expressive details — the elements that define my style. I enjoy working in different environments: apartments, cafés, studios, and commercial interiors. Each space has its own mood, light, and purpose, and I like adapting an idea to the atmosphere of a specific location. Moving to Germany became a new chapter for me: a new city, new projects, and the opportunity to build my path again. In my work, I value precision, respect for the space, and the feeling that I am creating something that will live alongside people and influence their everyday mood.
