In 1927-1929 Kotiantz engaged in a private Art studio in Pyatigorsk, independently studied paintings of outstanding artists of the past through books and reproductions, and a lot painted from the life. In 1929 he became a member of the Pyatigorsk branch of the AKhR — Association of Artists of the Revolution ({{lang-ru|link=no|Ассоциация художников революции}}, Assotsiatsia Khudozhnikov Revolutsii or AKhR, 1928-1932). In 1930 for the first time Kotiantz participated in Art exhibition in Pyatigorsk, then in the cities of the North Caucasus Essentuki, Kislovodsk, Mineral Waters.[3] In 1931-1932 Kotiantz works as an artist at the Museum of the Revolution in Pyatigorsk, where he trying his hand in the genre of historical and revolutionary paintings. Several of his works were purchased by the museum. In 1933 he was sent to study in Leningrad. In 1934-1935 Kotiantz engaged at the Higher Training Courses of Artists where he studied of known painters and art educators Pavel Naumov, Alexander Karev, and Rudolf Frentz. In this time Kotiantz continues to work on historical and revolutionary genre, his painting "Kirov in Baku" was awarded the second prize of the All-Russian Academy of Arts. In the same years he discovered to himself the art of the French impressionists, which largely changed the direction of his own creative quest. After completing the Higher Training Courses Kotiantz worked in Leningrad City Committee of Artists. In 1936 Kotiantz was called to service in the Red Army, in 1939-1940 he took part as a soldier in the Soviet-Finnish war known as the Winter war of 1939-1940. In 1940 he was demobilized and returned to creative work. In the same year he was admitted to the Leningrad Union of Soviet Artists. From the early days of Great Patriotic war Kotiantz in the Red Army on the Leningrad Front. He fought a signalman in the 23rd Army.

He demobilized in 1945 with the rank of sergeant. In 1945-1946 Kotiantz taught drawing and painting at the Tavricheskaya Art School in Leningrad. Simultaneously he hard restored his creative skills that were lost during the war. It was during this period that he enjoys the expressive possibilities of color.

Since 1948 Kotiantz becomes permanent participant of Art exhibitions, showing his works together with the works of the leading masters of fine arts of Leningrad.[4] He painted still lifes, portraits, genre and historical paintings. In the mid-1950s the leading genre of his art becomes decorative still life, almost unlimited in the author's choice of objects, which allows him infinitely vary in search of harmony of color combinations. A rather conditional forms in his paintings were used to detect color, to forcing him again and again to create coloristic unique picture of the world, though limited of size of a table.

Still Life"[11] (1965), "Pink Still Life"[12] (1967), "Grapes" (1972) and others. In the same manner Kotiantz created not as numerous genre scenes and portraits, models which often served as the wife and daughter of the artist. The best of them are characteristic of monumental compositions and exquisite color relationships, allowing the artist deeply the inner content of the image. Among them paintings "Tanya"[13] (1956), "A Girl at the brook"[14] (1958), "Portrait of E. Kostromeeva, a French teacher (the artist's wife)"[15] (1959), "From the village to the City", "Girl with Peaches"[16] (both 1961), "Shopgirl", "Mariners"[17] (both 1970), "Portrait of Tatiana Kotiantz as student"[18] (1971), "Portrait of a teacher"[19] (1971), "Grapes", "Still life" (both 1972), "Green still Life"[20] (1975), "Poppies", "Still Life with a crimson material"[21] (both 1980), and others.
