Underwater Oil Painting Created During Scuba Diving by Olga Nikitina
This captivating original oil painting was created underwater at a depth of 9.6 meters by internationally recognized underwater artist Olga Nikitina. Painted directly while scuba diving, the work embodies the raw, immersive energy of the ocean and offers a rare glimpse into the unique technique of underwater expression.
Rendered in a bold impasto style using a palette knife, the composition bursts with motion and vibrant colors that evoke the rhythms of marine life and the flow of currents. Every brushstroke is a testament to the artist’s deep connection with the sea and her pioneering approach to creating art in its natural, submerged environment.

2006 - Degree of Interior Design from Ulyanovsk State University 1995-2000 - School of Fine Arts, Ulyanovsk, Russia Was published in art magazines and journals, participated in group and solo exhibitions. Artworks are in private collections all over the world: USA, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Netherlands, France, Spain, South Africa, Egypt, Australia, Japan, Singapore. The main focus of my painting is underwater world. I draw my inspiration during scuba diving. Underwater I have learnt not only about the many life-forms, but the shapes and colors of everything in that realm continue to blow my mind. I feel like I am in another dimension. Scuba Divers witness the changes happening in the ocean – and can be among the first to raise the awareness of others to these growing problems. Nowadays most scuba divers have underwater cameras, to record the treasures and tragedies happening underwater – in this case evidence of the destruction of marine life. Art too, is a very effective tool and medium to communicate these messages. My art is my language. I would like to make people more human, more spiritual, to find their soul, love and kindness through the reunion with nature. So I am very happy to have opportunity to attract people by my art to the nature, in diver to find an art person and show a new reality – underwater world to art person. I believe that with my paintings more people will fall in love with the world of the sea, and become involved in the protection of our oceans for future generations to enjoy and wonder at. That is what I wish to come of these works and this experience in my life. That is what I wish to come of these works and this experience in my life.
In my underwater art I use palette knife, it gives an incredible deep texture and makes the artwork alive. Impasto painting is one of the palette knife art style. I work in artstyles such as impressionism, abstract, expressionism, fine art, conceptual and sometimes realism.
I work with acrylic painting, mixedmedia, texture paste however oil painting is my favorite.
