"Art is the language of the soul.. speaking to us through strokes, colors, and creativity.

-Bill Garibyan

Bill's story unfolds from his upbringing in the former Soviet Union, where his artistic journey began under the guidance of his father, a member of the Soviet Union Art Society. Spending his formative years in his father's studio, Bill absorbed a wealth of artistic knowledge that spanned drawing, painting, and sculpting. His immersion in the art world continued as he worked for a local art and design association while refining his drafting and architectural skills through evening classes at a nearby university.

With the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, Bill relocated with his family to Twin Falls, Idaho, USA. While his initial days did not allow him to fully embrace his artistic passion, over time, the irresistible pull of art took over. Today, Bill stands as a testament to his unwavering commitment to his craft. Through constant study of renowned impressionists and their techniques, he has developed a distinct style characterized by confident brushwork and harmonious color blends.

Bill's preferred subjects, landscapes and waterscapes, serve as a canvas for his deep connection to nature. His artistic process involves both outdoor work, capturing the essence of the Idaho landscape, and studio sessions. The resulting artworks not only portray the stunning beauty of the world around us but also mirror his profound appreciation for life itself.

As a devoted land and seascape artist, Bill finds his wellspring of inspiration in the natural world's splendor. With every brushstroke, he aims to enrich life's journey with vibrant oil colors that echo his passion for existence. His work is a celebration of the joy he finds in life, skillfully conveyed through the medium of art.

“I realize some have not yet found the key to their own personal expression, but for me art and painting have defined and shaped who I am and how I maintain the integrity of my own life. I believe that the ability of humans to express their creativity helps us live a mentally prosperous life and through art I achieve that euphoria.” -Says Bill 

Influences: Mikhail Garibyan, Monet, Van Gogh, Pissaro, Korovin, Sarian and many other impressionists.
