In Oksana's own words:
"There are wars, famines, droughts, injustice everywhere....I paint not to ignore the world, but when I return to my safe and beautiful house, I want to paint and be surrounded by simple enjoyment, positivity, and brightness and feel secure and content.
With my art, I try to make our world a little bit more beautiful, kinder, and brighter and to bring more joy and elegance to our lives.
I create my paintings with positive energy and try to transfer it to the canvas, trying to make my paintings full of life, light, and inspiring energy."
