My mission is to bring beauty into the world through art.

For eight years, I expressed my creativity in the world of pastry, crafting exquisite desserts to order. However, deep inside, I always knew I was an artist at heart. I longed for something more—a way to channel my soul’s vision onto canvas.

The turning point came in 2022, amidst the turmoil of war. I found myself in a new city, alone with my two children. In the midst of uncertainty, I discovered salvation in painting. Working on a piece for eight hours straight felt effortless, bringing me an undeniable sense of fulfillment. That was the moment I realized—art is my true calling.

I took private lessons from a painting teacher, and through relentless dedication, I achieved a significant milestone—my first solo exhibition in 2023 at the Regional Museum of Art in Kropyvnytskyi. The exhibition featured over 70 of my works and gained extraordinary media attention, with TV channels broadcasting it long after its debut.
