Turning Tides Painting

Yuliya Greben is a Ukrainian-born artist based in Southern California, working in the styles of Imaginative Realism and Cosmic Figurative painting. Her work explores the relationship between the human form and the inner world — a space she calls the Innerverse — where memory, spirit, and symbolic imagery converge. Through classical oil painting techniques and a visionary approach to composition, Yuliya creates luminous, emotionally resonant figures that embody transformation, intuition, and the sacred feminine. Her subjects exist in dreamlike, often cosmic environments that blur the line between physical presence and inner experience. Each painting serves as an invitation to reflect — a visual meditation on what lies beneath the surface, and a quiet call to reconnect with the deeper layers of self.
