Galina Grygoruk

Hi! I am artist from Ukraine. Because of the war in Ukraine I moved and now live in Norway.
And I am inspired by the idea that through my artwork I connect with people from different cities, countries and continents, get closer to them and give them not just a painting, but a part of my soul, my emotions and energy that I invest in each artwork.

I work in the technique of oil and acrylic painting. I love to paint flowers, ballerinas, landscapes, nude, portraits, people and places that inspire me.

I started my career as an artist at 35. In art field I tried everything that was interesting to me. Kaleidoscopically changed techniques, approaches, styles, themes and objects for the creative process. That is why I have such a variety of paintings. My creative search continues...

Creativity for me is an opportunity to know both my inner world and to comprehend the beauty and essence of everything that surrounds us; it is a philosophical rethinking of the mystery of existence and the realization of a deep inner vocation.
