Toronto
based piano and singing teacher Dr. Nina Soyfer has just published a
book entitled 'The
Art From My Heart'.
The book itself is a collection of eighty six original artwork
reproductions. This catalogue of art works features contrasting
pieces that follow a similar style. Dr. Nina Soyfer has completed
over four hundred works of art to date. Her collections have been
exhibited in the Ukraine, Israel, and Canada. In 2003 Nina's painting
entitled 'Cocktail of Dance' won third prize at the Ukrainian
Creative Arts Competition. In that very same year Nina was selected
as one of three visual artists from the Ukraine to study with artists
in Israel where she had the opportunity to exhibit her paintings,
sculptures, and photographs at the international competition entitled
Israel in Dance and Colour. When Nina returned from Israel she was
invited to exhibit her entire collection of artwork including
paintings, sculptures, and photographs at the M. D. Leontovytch
College of Culture and Arts where she later gave lectures on her art
to faculty and students alike.
Here is a quote from Nina: “I first began painting when I was 12-14 years old. My professional paintings I mean, not just children’s classes. My style was fantasy-based and soul-driven. I was addicted and couldn’t stop for days. My parents had to ask administration of the university I attended to give me a leave of absence while I painted. And so, just like that, began my visual artist’s carrier. I was not very aware of my surroundings while I painted, and so my friends visited and talked while I painted; or grabbed a brush and helped. I have now completed more than 500 art-works, and most of the ones professionally photographed are in this book. My hat goes off to my designer, who was able to fit it in just a 100 pages or so. And so, I hope you get a copy and receive the energies of healing; and activate your mind with extremely detailed ones.” (Nina Soyfer)
