Winter etude Painting

Born in 1995 in Dnipro, Ukraine. 2012-2015 Dnipropetrovsk Theater and Art College (Dnipro, Ukraine) 2015-2021 - The National Academy of Fine Arts and Architecture ( Kiev, Ukraine). Multiple participant of all-Ukrainian exhibitions, member of the Union of Artists of Ukraine. Works are in private collections in USA, Spain, France,Great Britain, Romania, Israel, Ukraine. Surrounding world is the main source of inspiration for me. I have always been impressed by the immediacy of ordinary experience, and throughout my development as a painter, I’ve worked to represent that as accurately as possible. I believe that in some moments life itself reveals to us as a miraculous gift and I paint familiar things, but seen anew, such as in those moments of clarity when the ordinary and familiar seems strange and unfamiliar. So I try to find abstract beauty and emotional significance in light, the way in which it is absorbed and reflected and interactions of colors. I enjoy exploring the multiple possibilities of material, applying the paint with broad brushes in a loose and expressive style or creating a multi-layered relief. Although I work in all major classical painting genres, still life continues to be the most experimental one for me where I can try new techniques and methods. I seek the way to convey complex relationship of the objects between each other with the help of dynamic system of lights, stressing the most important elements, so that areas of darkness are in a permanent dialogue with the lightened parts. But at the same time, it is extremely important for me to perceive the object itself as a part of the living world, not barely a motive for formal searches.
