Portrait of "Misha"
 In the spring of 2006, as expected, played the wedding, and we have a neighbor in the courtyard of Roma married, a car, which rolled on the young Moscow, decorated with white roses ribbons, roses, after skating with ribbons as useless thrown in the trash. I was at this moment of tenderness and destruction of symbols of chastity was returning from the store laden with bags of food and both hands were occupied, but to pass such a wealth of roses and ribbons, he could not.
. Remembering Nattiny the words "long walk through rubbish gather canvas, stretchers, and have no time to do," she said in an interview with a young reporter, at the opening of an exhibition. I heard these words with his ears, looked like - a channel, culture, and the screen Natta rushing about from picture to paint, to paint a picture and a correspondent for a given issue to talk about creativity. Natta and nailed it. I even broke the cry - "Behold Natta makes the country of coal."
When I have Natta said:
-Nutt, and what are you rubbish run, tell me, I'll run with you, too ...
What Natta, slyly smiling, said:
Well, I had to say something to her. What she does not understand ... And what do you think we have it in the trash, then just do not find ....
 So I got these roses and put it in a package with the idea that prey include natto. For her nativity, and Raikov, which she creates in her studio, proudly showing and telling visitors where and how cheap or expensive got this or that little thing in its exposition.
 After bringing this production Natta told under what circumstances these flowers were to me, it surprised me his news:
-Oh! And I have you here, in a dream saw you as Louis XIV was. Let me draw you so, come, sit down.
Threw me for the color red velvet pants and wrapped my paper garland with ribbons and brought me with roses, commanded
-Take the rose in her mouth
Though I am weak, but countered
-Nutt, who knows where it lay (keeping in mind the urn in the house) ...
-A! Well ... just leaning
And she, placing the canvas on his knees, trying on, as they fit me ...
A look became serious, the back straightened, brush in hand danced across the canvas, it seems that Natta did not even catch her, watched as she frolicked on the canvas, brush Natta helped to "painting works", which Natta did not like, hand, finger . Bending over a pile of black tubes of paint, she feels is the right color paint. And when the brush carefully scraped with a tube of paint by placing in the top right corner of the big "H" with two alphas, and between them the two "t" and inscribed the name of the author's picture and on the reverse.
- "The most important work to sign, not to lose" - uttered Natta, - "Now you have to let it dry" .... - hang on a nail at the free wall hung with embodied ideas, sketches, quotes ....

Of course, Natta worthy of awards and award Popkov seems to have poluchala.Edinstvenno a shame that such an artist as Konysheva fighting for the prize of a weaker, but the murdered artist. When this happens, and with it, you have to organize a prize for its name-
hard work, courage and talent.

You are more bloodthirsty tassazat . Let Natta live longer and nothing will happen to her .
I really like the character Natta Konysheyoy ( the stories and articles , of course. We do not know personally).

Portrait of Victor Krotov Natta made in the 90s, accessories surrounding Natta Dandelion - thin-skinned and prolific, with tassels imp-arrows, and Natta in his baseball cap unchanged modestly occupies the place it has even signed a place HAT-TA,
 in a number of talented artists with their own style of thinking, with his vision and his artist underscores.
 Viktor Krotov Nattin idol in those days could often be heard from her Natta such an introduction, "I have that little talantik, here is Victor - talantische." As neighbors in the workshops Natta often came to the studio to the Krotov. And once when I was in Natta, she offered to go to Victor's visit, saying the refrain of "talantische."
Arriving at the studio for Victor, poor Favorite Nattka a child, "whimpered" with the words
- Vit, a dead end, what to draw I do not know, eh?
At that Viktor her calmly, without irritation. Always, as with the dandelion, it is reasonable notice:
Nutt, everything is already painted, take myself any topic and retell the story in their own words.
Look here ...
Take the canvas, we sit down in front, and Victor gives a master class.
- ... "The abduction of Europe", someone who stole it, he did /she did not know, know, Zeus turned into a white bull on his luck in Europe, the island of Crete ...
And he paints on canvas bull divisive water surface, and it has simply been tacked to the rump Europe bull straps and the lower part of Europe is united with the back of a bull.
- ... But how to show that this is Europe ...
At that time, the spring of 2000, introduced the currency of the united Europe, called the Euro, and Victor draws rain from the euro symbol
Natta gasps with delight, and Victor, wipes his hands, looking at us satisfied with the impression produced, as it is for half an hour, and did, what a headache Natta.
I'd take a picture of this product, not to mention more but stupor from vision artistically executed simply "masterpiece" of execution of the master class, and paralyzed the will of the jaw. "For a long time the wind whistling in my ears."
At its exhibition in March 2007 in the small Arena Viktor Krotov put the work "is a sweet word" Life "was created in 2006, they performed in the new technologies in digital form on paper. On her own bare-chested President and Nattka in exotic costumes. I stood and admired her work, here on my luck runs Natta, I told her almost in the trace:
 Nutt, see you at the Victor in the picture, let us take pictures with you on its background. Natta both looked like the ruble has presented, on the run saying:
 -What do you mean, it's not a painting.
For the portrait, executed by Victor in 90th with a gentle attitude Natta and lean:
 -I signed it, so do not forget that this is Victor.

Every time a visitor comes to Natta, it may ask
Well, the gallery will be watching?
Must-Nutt ...
Natta with understanding, placing the visitor in the case of PLUS unconditional consent, but if a visitor hesitated a little, may be followed by severe and unpleasant words
-You who gave me a ...
So it was in 2008 with my friend the Armenian artist Ovnanom Sarkisian, he asked me to reduce to Nutt, see her gallery. Man calm, respectful, and Natta on it his cantankerous nature, like a hot iron, but has shown his work, said that the interested visitor. At the end of a good-bye when he saw that the man with all due respect to her work, standing on the porch shivering from the chill of the spring, said quietly:
- "You better not be angry I'm old - a quarrelsome" (and their immediate children giggled a giggle).
To Natta to visitors on the gallery it's a ritual, which adheres to the hostess. Will tell you that are interested in or new products. On the floor on which the picture is clear as far as completed by the Artist in the present work, although this does not mean that it (the picture) will not be improved with new ideas to arise, the circumstances and moves Natta. But all one completed Nattkoy demolished to the ground floor and there is space.
Nattiny creatures living in her gallery with their lives, they are constantly in motion, leaving it to the exhibition, with the buyer, and returning after some time, to join in the galleries created by Natta exposures.
 In her gallery no matter how many times you have walked on it, or watched, every time there are new pictures, written yesterday or in the nineties, eighties, seventies and there are even earlier.
So it was with the picture of "Lena", 1976. Natta showed once again his gallery, I saw this picture, he turned to Natta to the issues
Natta, where such a joy?
Yes, there came one and brought it with the words "Take my picture, I do not want to remind me something about you," and returned it to me.
Nutt, I take it.
Natta aloud, as if to himself,
It should also double-sold the same picture as in the case ...
And then he told me the other case:
And it was in the distant nineties, going, such as in the center of an antique shop, she saw standing in the corner of his picture without a frame, a saleswoman, and it asks Natta all know ...
-Your picture?
Natta me, as it were apologetically: "I had thought she had me as an artist asked, I said - my"
Saleswoman: - Take, as it is we have 10 years worth, no one wants
Natta - "I took, it was awkward to explain that my /not mine, and
she is there for some funny money was "

An interesting episode in the exhibition gallery "Stork" in the CHA: the day after the discovery occurred, for if the picture is not Natta in the frame, you should at least be in the wooden plates. The next day she brought a 2-meter plate, and Koi paintings appeared at that time without frames by these facings have been ennobled, with the hope of the buyer that he, too, appreciate them in makeshift frames. And then one of the visitors, referring to Nutt, asked permission to photograph the paintings Natta with her usual vivacity immediately agreed -
 such as "what to ask, like, TAKE PHOTOS"
 woman complained that not all are allowed, what Natta with her characteristic directness:
Of - wonderful, but it is superfluous - Advertising ...
To Natta was June this year at the harvest month of the exhibition and the opportunity to exhibit their works Natta did not miss, especially since its June monthly birthday on June 9. And this year the Ministry of Agriculture for 80 years. Natta is almost as old as the Ministry of Agriculture, he was her senior by three years. It was nice to see a lot Nattino work under the name "Circus" in the exposition of the Jubilee Exhibition of Agriculture, which runs until June 29.
 Circus, who became a hero on the colored Nattinoy pictures with your holiday and the holiday mystery, as the focus of a magician, if you do not know that the queen of spades in the hole, it's Magic Queen of Spades. Horses running in a circle arena fascinating, with their bodies and the magic circle of the arena, as a planet involved in a circle and Nikulin in the car, standing in front of the circus, and circus animals, clowns and its artists of all genres, all in a kaleidoscope of circus with the balls of columns.
At the exhibition we met and she Natta I. in his baseball cap and the same shoes in the work of sculptor D.Tugarinova, instantly recognizable with his hands, and beaten arthritis "... breast, which wore. "

The State Museum-Reserve Tsaritsyno in "Bread House" on September 2, completed its exhibition "Traditions of folklore and naive in today's culture." At the exhibition was attended by four paintings Natta Konysheva submitted gallery Gary Tatintsian. Impressive size of these paintings created in 2007 by four feet and "higher and wider." It is a pity that the painting "Untitled".
 Although the topic Nattinyh paintings are easy to read and difficult to link them to the site of action.
The two paintings - "Christmas Izmailovo": With Bears "from Savitsky" to trained from Izmailovo, crocodiles, guards, friends, heater supplies piping hot pies issues and then it (the oven) - ice slide, which slips into a bear, and the movement continues bunch of dogs playing - not to reconsider, and the figure carrying female mannequin takes us from one picture into another picture.
"Antique Salon."
"Carnival at the skating rink on Red Square."
Natta says I. - "... of course the growth is easier to paint ...", but moves that Natta finds are subject only to her, her sharp eyes, paintings Natta must be seen to follow her moves, moves and characters strung on thread Nattinogo narrative. For all that Natta portrays on canvas, it was all in my life with her or with her, she saw it or was a member. Natta is Natta Konysheva and of the works did not back away from you, has created masterpiece paintings.

After Tsarina had a few questions to Nutt Ivanovna, telephoned all week and only here on September 10 vyzvonil ... and pulled up in the morning the next day.
