River of Life («Sag mir, wo die Blümen sind») Painting

Only PRINTS are presented here. I am a Kyiv-based multimedia artist, multiple award-winning painter and Soviet non-conformist icon. I am an artist, actress (specializing in aristocratic characters in historical and fantasy films), singer and writer from Kyiv. I have poor health, so I often sit by the window and watch the lives of others. Not surprisingly, I'm also a philosopher :-) I have lived in different countries, but returned to Ukraine before the war. In that country even before the war live was difficult and dangerous, so it is very interesting. In Ukraine, even the very survival depends on the kind of food you buy for dinner. And in wartime, you just have to survive and eat not every day. So here I feel alive - it inspires creativity. My paintings is contain in one museum in Kyiv and many private collections in Europe (including EU). My name is Helgána Shyshkina-Rybalskaya (I am also known as Tiny Lady Helgána). As of 2024, I have already received a special prize from the jury of the prestigious International Luxembourg Art Prize “For High Quality Art” 4 times. By the way, my medium term work on the painting is 9 months. I have the best job in the world: I can recreate the lost beauty of our planet that is destroyed, and can create New Worlds. In the twentieth century, people have seen a lot of grief, we learned a lot of trouble. So in the twenty-first century, I try to give them their creativity only positive emotions. A bit of biography: From the very childhood I wanted to become the artist only. I was draw when it is only possible, I was draw at all, what is only possible, I was draw as often as possible. When I began to painting on furniture, parents tired to fight with this talent and decided to send me to study art. So in the 4 years old I first went to vocational training to painting to the private teacher. Then newspapers started writing about me as about the child prodigy from Kyiv. Over the years, I began to have other hobbies: I was a member of the girl's synchronized swimming team, I graduated from music school, I graduated from acting school, at 15 I organized the rock band "Shadows of Mirkwood", where I was a front girl and the author, and my stage name was Elven Queen Gaenelos... But painting has always been my main love.
