My name is Polina Rubin. I was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia. I studied at an art school connected to the Mukhin Art Academy, and later graduated from Saint Tikhon Orthodox University in Moscow with a Bachelor's degree in Historical Painting and Restoration.
Since 2014, I've been working in restoration and historical painting. For over 10 years, I've worked as a freelance artist, taking on private projects. I also had the chance to work with several well-known icon collectors in Moscow, focusing on restoration.
I truly love this work and believe it's very important. Today, people are often focused on creating something new, but we shouldn't forget to preserve what already exists. Saving the past helps shape our future.
Through my work, I've gained a strong knowledge of art history, composition, and color. I pay close attention to detail and know how to work well with clients, building good, professional relationships.
On this website, you can see a collection of my art and restoration projects from the past 10 years.
