Ivan Loginov (b. 1994) in Abakan (Southern Siberia), Russia.

He began his career at the age of 15 in St. Petersburg. From an early age, he developed a passion for classical representational art.

He dedicated most of his time to studying the principles of classical Russian painting at the Imperial Academy of Arts, which has an uninterrupted tradition since 1757. During his studies, he focused not only on the technical aspects of painting but also on philosophy. His goal is to achieve a balance between inner and outer beauty in human portraiture.

His success comes from a deep understanding of the classical school of thought in painting and drawing. He strives to combine and overlay all his skills to achieve an accurate representation of the human soul.

He enjoys playing with and implementing contrasts in color, technique, and ideas. Therefore, even in his large-scale historical paintings, clear messages about current societal issues can be found.

From 2009 to 2013, he studied at the Academic Lyceum of Art named after Johanson in St. Petersburg.

From 2013 to 2019, he studied at the Imperial Academy of Arts (Repin Academy of Fine Arts), Department of Painting, under Professor Pesikov in St. Petersburg.

He studied with P.A. Sadovsky, N.D. Blokhin, D.A. Collegova, I.V. Petrov, N.N. Repin, N.S. Lysak, G.A. Gukasov, A.L. Ivanov, I.V. Ovcharenko and other professors from the Academy of Arts.

From 2019 to 2021, he was an Assistant Master at the Imperial Academy of Arts.

Since 2016, he has been working in his studio in St. Petersburg.
