Katharina Valeeva (born July 31, 1978, in Kislovodsk, Russia, as Nikiforova Ekaterina Vladimirovna) is a Russian painter who has resided in Germany since 2001. She is acclaimed for her mastery of traditional oil painting techniques on canvas. Valeeva's work often features nature-inspired motifs, rendered in a variety of styles ranging from realistic to symbolic and figurative.

Other notable series include "Nature Goddesses," "City Life," and "Seascapes."[2]
