About Artist
Artist Minimalist Feel The Line (@feeltheline) aka Tatyana Markovtsev is a co-founder and Chief Creative Officer at Purple Orange NFT Lab (a company of Purple Orange LLC) and runs her Feel The Line art and fashion brand. Born and raised in Moscow, USSR (now Russia), Tatyana immigrated to the U.S. over 25 years ago, becoming an American citizen and settling with her family just northwest of Chicago. An engineer by trade, she has never imagined that one day her works would find universal appeal and touch hearts of millions of people from over 150 countries, who visit her website feeltheline.com and have seen her works at international shows and social media every year (prior to the pandemic). She only discovered strong desire to draw and begun her journey to mastery already in her late 50s, completing over 500 works since 2009. Tatyana debuted with her personal month-long art show @ Edge Gallery in Chicago exactly 10 years ago, in February/March 2012.
For 3 years in the row, in 2016, 2017 and 2018, Tatyana Markovtsev was selected as one of the finalists of one the Asia’s most prestigious and largest International Artist Grand Competitions organized by the Taiwan International Contemporary Artist Association and for past 4 years has been chosen to participate at ART Revolution Taipei, where she won the Gallery Award Prize in 2018.
As a result of the receiving the Gallery Award, she participated and exhibited 13 of her recent artworks on canvas (30” x 40”) at the International Salon, taking place within ART Revolution Taipei mega event in May 2019. She was one of only 3 American artists invited to participate.
Fast-forward to 2022, in the post-covid economy she believes that releasing her upcoming NFT collections drops is the most effective way to reach humanity with the messages of her art.
Feel The Line is masterfully using India ink on cold press paper or canvas, acrylic, mixed media and digital coloring techniques to make her creations. Since 2012, Tatyana has both organized and participated in many successful shows, art fairs and exhibits, illustrated over 30 books including poetry and mystery novels, while continuing to inspire many artists to create in their own style, such as glasswork, mosaic, jewelry, sculpture, body art, and even culinary creations, etc.
Additionally, her artworks have been successfully used by medical professionals from various counties to help in treatment of PTSD and depression (European Union, Turkey and USA).
At 70 years young Mrs. Tatyana aka Feel The Line feels that she just reached the perfect age to release her first Non-fungible Token collection to the world. She is assisted by her family and a dynamic team of crypto professionals, designers, coders and marketing gurus from Purple Orange NFT Lab.
