Artistic Background, Style & Philosophy

* Education: He earned a Master’s degree in Architecture from the Kyiv National University of
Construction and Architecture in 1985 and worked as an architect before dedicating himself fully to
painting.
* Technique: Gorovyi's work is characterized by a blend of Impressionism and Realism. He is a proponent
of plein air painting, often visiting a location multiple times to study how different light and weather
conditions affect the scene before finishing a piece in his studio.

based on linseed oil, avoiding cadmiums and cobalts.

Connecticut scenery and iconic New York locations like Central Park.
