“Natalia Grigorieva is a Muscovite and her art is undoubtedly rooted in Moscow poetics and cultural traditions … Her style is distinguished by a bright, perfectly measurable space, the feeling of a beautiful world generously blooming in a transparent and pure free-air environment, clear-cut shapes, plasticity of every motif…” – Anatoly Kantor, art historian, Honored Art Worker of the Russian Federation, President of the Russian Academy of Art Critics.
“I have an impression that Grigorieva is learning to experience life "in terms of painting". To experience her visual as well as historical and cultural impressions without simply illustrating the latter, naturally, but concealing them in her perception of nature ("as the morning mist conceals the fields…" to quote a poet.) It seems that the painting “dough” her works are made out of, preserves a physical stamp of her emotions, her breathlessness, changed moods, heartbeat, her raptures, subconscious anxieties and their overcoming…” – Alexander Borovsky, MA art history, Head of Modern Trends Dept., The State Russian Museum, St. Petersburg, Russia.
