Female Figure Seated In Sanguine Drawing

I am an artist from Ukraine with a foundation in academic and experimental approaches to figure drawing. I began my studies at the Kyiv Academy of Arts, where I trained in the classical (St. Petersburg) academic style. Later, I moved to Lviv to earn a Bachelor of Arts at the Lviv National Academy of Arts, an institution known for its openness to experimentation and its engagement with modern European art movements. My work is driven by a fascination with the human form — its beauty, complexity, and expressive power through line and shape. The human being, as the most evolved species, with the intricate interplay of body, mind, and emotion, continues to be my greatest source of inspiration and artistic inquiry.
