I am also inspired by the female figure. My imagination plays a key role in all of the art I create.  Despite my classical and extensive art education, I prefer to stylize images and to create surrealistic renditions instead of realistic artwork.<\/p>\n<p><b>Do you have formal training?<\/b><br \/>\nYes, I have formal art training. I received a B.S. in Studio Art from Brooklyn College. My art education also occurred at New York University; the Art Students\u2019 League and the Brooklyn Museum Art School. I had the good fortune to study for several years with painter, Stefano Cusumano.<\/p>\n<p><b>Kuriloff&#8217;s artwork is available for sale in her Etsy shop <a href=\"http:\/\/kuriloff.etsy.com\">http:\/\/kuriloff.etsy.com<\/a>, and on her web site <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ninakuriloff.com\">http:\/\/www.ninakuriloff.com<\/a>.
