NeoPopRealism reflects new millenium and interested in a whimsical contemporary world, with its fabulous technological & cultural achievements.
Lets look in past. At the beginning of 20 Century Plank formulated his quantum theory. After came Picasso with cubism, next was futurism, interested in landscape as cubism is interested in still life. Then came surrealism with Dali, abstract, modern art with his best representative Jackson Pollock... To name a few.
In every brushstroke there is a hand directed by a one whose brain is permited by the ideas of the times in which artist lives. Today's artist study their themes and put their techniques to the servise of ideas. World did not collapse in year 2000 and we looked in the future with optimism.
New millennium brought new style NeoPopRealism, which reflects new century and combines brightness and simplisity of pop art with deep philosophical realism. NeoPopRealism is whimsical, carries hi color energy and has graphic nature. Style influences fancy contemporary world with deep social & psychological diversity. Subject - mostly faces.

Someone said that Nadia Russ' paintings impossible to copy. There's a short description on how to paint in the NeoPopRealist manner.

Get the canvas & brush. Close your eyes for a moment. Get an idea. Let's make faces. Line turns to a beautiful eye on the right side of the canvas. Nose. Lips. Draw left eye that belong to another person & look different than right one. Paint profile that picture right face. Add symbolic objects as a backdrop.
Now color. Feel free, get bold one. Another one. Third one... Do you like what you see? Turn on all your senses. Feeling of harmony is important condition. Enjoy process. It's fun, it's game, it's enjoyment & total satisfaction at the end.
What you see look too simple to you? make it more complicated: double line, tripple line. Connect eyes, nose, lips, & figures at the background. Play 'til drop dead, following your feeling of harmony. Sorry if you do not have it. Then you are in a trouble. Important condition is a talent, professional skills, imagination, & sharp sense of the contemporary world...
