Yurii Novikov

Hello, my name is Yurii Novikov, I am a professional artist from Ukraine, currently living and working in Kharkiv. Painting has been the defining focus of my life — a continuous exploration of how light, movement, and emotion shape our perception of reality.
Working primarily with oil on canvas, I value the medium for its depth and versatility. It allows me to move freely between clarity and abstraction, capturing moments that feel both immediate and timeless.
Through my work, I aim to portray life as I experience it: dynamic, expressive, and filled with subtle transformations. Each painting becomes a space where observation meets intuition, and where the visible world blends with a more emotional, introspective one.

From 1985 to 1994, I studied the craft of art in Ukraine, beginning in art school and continuing at H.S. Skovoroda Kharkiv National Pedagogical University.
