Olena Zhyhaltsova

Hello! My name is Olena Zhyhaltsova.
I am from Ukraine, but I moved to Norway in 2022.
I don't have any art education. I am a self-taught artist, but I have been keen on painting since my childhood. In my youth I often painted mainly portraits of my friends and aquaintances copies of old paintings.
I an a teacher by profession. I have a higher education as a primary school teacher, music and singing. I have 5 children and that's why I haven't drawn for a long period.
Now all the children are already adults. So I decided to pay attention to my drawing abilities.
As before, I love to draw portraits of people and paint copies of old paintings and nature.
I draw in the style of realism and photorealism. I present to your attention several of my works.

Self taught.
