Katerina Chornukhina

I am a Ukrainian contemporary artist currently based in Lithuania. My artistic practice is rooted in figurative painting, with a particular focus on the human figure, portraiture, emotion, and the complexity of human experience.

I work primarily in oil painting, using expressive color, light, texture, and gesture to create intimate and emotionally charged works. I am interested in capturing not only the physical appearance of a person, but also their inner state — emotions, vulnerability, strength, memory, and moments of silence.

My artistic approach combines academic foundations with a personal and intuitive way of painting. Each work is an exploration of atmosphere and emotion, where color and composition become a language through which I communicate with the viewer.

Originally from Ukraine, I am now continuing my artistic journey in Spain, where my surroundings and new cultural experience influence my visual language and creative development.
