She usually works in series, either in regards to the materials used, or in the exploration of a particular idea. Color plays a significant role in Yulia's paintings. Her harmonious and alluring color combinations express emotions and create a special atmosphere, one wants to keep experiencing. "My paintings start with a feeling - an impression of the society and culture I live in. There is always a reflection which unfolds through the act of painting. Over the years I came to cherish the intuitive aspects of painting. Being in a creative flow is what I love most about being an artist. On the one hand, I let the painting reveal itself and guide me. On the other hand, I love to solve the puzzles that arise in the process of finding balance in painting." Yulia's paintings are made with professional acrylic paints as well as other mediums like oils and inks. Her works are found in private collections around the world.
