Her works reflect the diverse cultural background and strongly influenced by Communist era, but personally I'd call her canvases the pin-up reflection on a non-existent military post-soviet country. "Women of the Revolution" is her ongoing series of pinup portraits mixed with Russian slang words from "Bitch" to "Pretty". Follow up her latest artworks on kathrinlonghurst.com
