Evening at the River Painting

Today, I have the privilege of devoting myself entirely to my oil painting. My primary objective in my work is to infuse interior spaces with the positive energy of nature. This is why I have a penchant for depicting landscapes and seascapes. I am Oleg, originally from Ukraine, born in 1962. My journey into the world of painting began from a young age, starting with watercolors. As my passion grew, I found my way into an art studio, where I began to capture the world around me on canvas. During high school, I actively participated in art competitions and exhibitions. In 1977, I ventured into oil painting, starting with plein air landscapes. In 1985, I earned a Master's degree in Architecture from Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture. With a background as an architect during the days of the USSR. Throughout my university years and subsequent professional life, I remained deeply connected to watercolor painting. In my spare time, I explored the realm of oil painting, and from 2004 onward, I dedicated more of my time to this medium. Now based in the picturesque town of New Canaan, Connecticut, immersing myself in my art. Every painting you see on this page is a testament to my dedication and love for my work. In my paintings I want to reflect those impressions and emotions what I feel from the chosen landscape and try to convey them to the viewer. Some of my works are in private collections in Ukraine, Lithuania and USA. For more information visit my website: oleggorovyi.com
