  Oksana Kovalevskaya (Russian: Оксана Ковалевская) is the lead singer of the Russian band Kraski ("Paints"), where she released five albums, each with a different color theme.
  
  ## Career
  
  In 2001, she released the single "Today I Went Home to Mother" (Russian: Сегодня к маме я пиехала домой), and her first album You're an Adult. As part of their promotions outside of Belarus, she worked with Real Records to release her album in Russia. By then, she started using a color-based theme for her albums, and the name of her touring band was Kraski (Russian: краски). Her debut album was thus released as the Yellow album – Big Brother (Russian: Желтый альбом (Старший брат)). In 2002, she released her second single, "He doesn't know anything" (Russian: Он не знает ничего), which is about a bandit. After the tour concluded, she released her third single "I love you Joe". In January 2003, she released her fourth single, "My Mother" (Russian: Мамочка моя), which is about a grown-up girl who wonder what's next.
  
  Paints returned to the studio to record their second album, which uses the red color theme. Kovalevskaya released her third Kraski album with an orange color theme. In 2004, Kovalevskaya released her fourth Kraski album with a blue color theme.
  
  Her fifth album had a purple color theme. Its title track, "Those who love" (Russian: Те, кто любит), was a duet with Russian pop singer Andrey Gubin. The album continued to show her mature side. Kraski expanded its 2005 tour to cities and countries they have not been to before. In 2005–2006 they traveled to England, Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, Hungary, Ireland and the United States. Kovalevskaya also lived in the United States for about a year, until she was pregnant with her second child.
  
  In 2010, Kraski disbanded.
