“Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.”
- Thomas Merton

My art communicates passion, soul, and longing for a deeper understanding of life, places yet to be explored, and a fuller expression of emotions often found in art.
Throughout my career as an artist, I've had amazing opportunities to live and exhibit in Europe, America, and Australia. Having grown and developed as an artist for more than 15 years, I've always been passionate about it. I realize how good artistic self-expression is for my soul and touching other people's hearts. I create a storyline that blends vivid imagination, good times, and meaningful reminders of all the wonderful things around me.
It has been my pleasure and honour to teach a diverse group of students from different educational backgrounds and adults privately in my studio.
This studio also serves as an art gallery, since 2002.


Teaching has been a very rewarding and enjoyable experience for me throughout my career.
As a result of these teaching techniques, I have been able to effectively teach all styles of learners in a fun and engaging learning environment.

Art has an undeniable positive impact on people's mental and physical health. There is no doubt that it is capable of bringing strength, joy, and healing to people.

Exploration of different themes and characters.

Creating art for me is a powerful way to immerse into a world of fantasy and imagination. I paint vibrant and detailed art pieces and usually have a vision of what I’l like to achieve with brainstorming ideas. By investing time and effort into small details, I hope to have more immersive and engaging experience for my viewers.

My growth as an artist 

Since early childhood, I have had a passion for art that has only grown stronger with time. I have had the privilege of receiving both formal and informal education in the field, which has helped me to refine my skills and develop my unique style. After completing my degree in Ukraine with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and Primary School Teaching, I moved to Australia in 2002. Since then, I have continued to explore different mediums, including porcelain art, spray painting, oils, watercolour, and acrylics.

One of the most significant factors that have contributed to my growth as an artist is the amount of time I have spent practicing in my home studio. Through countless hours of experimentation and exploration, I have been able to refine my technique and develop my own artistic voice. Additionally, I have been working with children for many years, both in the classroom and as a parent. This experience has allowed me to share my love of art with others and to encourage them to explore their own creativity.

Overall, my journey as an artist has been filled with challenges, but it has also been incredibly rewarding. I am grateful for the opportunities I have had to learn and grow, and I look forward to continuing to explore new mediums and techniques in the years to come.
