Irina graduated from Azerbaijan State College of Architecture. In 1989 together with her family she immigrated to the United States.

As all newcomers, Irina's family had to fight for survival and make their way up. Now she can dedicate more time to painting and other creative activities. Variations on the ‘City Landscape' theme – is the main idea of her watercolors, silk paints, and graphics. She is not simply trying to copy the landscape, but rather to reflect the feelings and the mood it imposed on her. Sometimes it is an actual architectural object, other times – pure fantasy or the combination of both. She loves painting flowers with watercolor; flowers are so fragile, and their life is as short as watercolor artwork itself. Often, she adds architectural details to still life.

She has recently tried herself as a book illustrator. Irina used the technique of graphics and watercolor to illustrate a science-fiction book called ‘Fate'. It will be published in Moscow in November of this year.

Currently, Irina is sharing her time between being a mother, a commercial real estate agent, and an artist.
