About the Item

Artist: Nika Armine Work: Original oil painting, handmade artwork, one of a kind Medium: Oil on Canvas Year: 2019 Style: Surrealism, Figurative Art Title: Hopeful Size: 40" x 40" x 1'' inch, (101 x101 x3 cm) Unframed, Stretched on Wooden Bar, Gallery Wrapped, Ready to Hang Bio: An Armenian-born artist currently working out of Los Angeles, Nika Arminé is one of those rare and enviable souls who heard her life’s calling at a very early age. At just four years old, she sketched an impromptu portrait of her father while her parents were busy entertaining friends. An unassuming child, Arminé thought little of her drawing and soon went about her play. The party came to a halt however, when the adult guests in the room - several of whom were artists themselves - saw and were captivated by the portrait. The young girl was a naturally-gifted artist. Arminé remembers this day well, as it marked the beginning of her lifelong artistic journey. Following several years and shows as a young creative, Arminé’s formal art education began at age fourteen at the Terlemezian College of Fine Arts in Yerevan, Armenia. Arminé put on her first solo exhibition when she was fifteen years old, and many more soon followed, including throughout Armenia, in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Paris, Berlin and London, just to name a few. In 1997, she was invited to Edgar Chahine’s museum in Orne, France for a summer residency. There, Arminé studied the master’s etching techniques while also working on two forthcoming solo exhibitions of her own. She then moved to a Parisian studio where she continued working on her exhibitions. Her series of oil paintings titled “The Fifth Element” were created during that time and shown in May of 1998 in Paris. A second exhibition in Honfleur soon followed, in August of the same year. The strength and recognition of these showings marked the beginning of her career as a professional artist. From the beginning of her career, Arminé displayed an interest in subject matter of every kind, and demonstrated a great stylistic versatility that enabled her to work in several styles at once. In 2000, soon after receiving her Masters of Fine Arts degree at the Academy of Fine Arts in Yerevan, Arminé moved to Los Angeles where she continues her creative work. This has included numerous paintings and series, including “What it Takes”, “Caliber” and “Colors and Nature of Artsakh”. Arminé uses of a broad range of painting and drawing techniques, a variety of styles in her work - all combined to harmonious effect. Her versatility and openness to experimentation are part of what makes her creative output so appealing and compelling. Arminé’s work has received numerous awards and certificates of recognition, and her art can be found in both public and private collections around the world. Her artistic expression, growth and training continues, and Arminé plans on maintaining that momentum for many years to come, grateful for the opportunity to share her creativity with the world.
