Eugenea was born in Rostov-on-Don, a heavily industrialised city in Southern Russia. Her introduction to
painting was at an early age through her father, Boris Belmasov, a respected Russian painter. At 17 years
of age she was the youngest student in 30 years to be accepted by the V.I. Surikov State Academy of
Art in Moscow, graduating after six years of intensive study.
The artist has successfully exhibited in Russia, Germany, Switzerland and America. In 1993 Eugenea
moved to the Southern Hemisphere, living first in Brisbane and then Wellington.
The foundation of a formal Russian training combined with the development of her own expressive style,
gifts us with unique works which are often possessed with an unusual and ethereal quality. A polished and
very personal technique sees the artist, who works mainly in oils, creating figurative works with beautifully
detailed hands and faces which contrast with the skillful application of impasto.
