Yulia Odukalets

Painting holds deep meaning for me—it’s the air, the freedom, a window into the universe. It brings clarity in times of uncertainty, calm in moments of chaos, and a sense of connection with the world.

Through fine art, I strive to evoke peace, growth, and a sense of calm through my art. I am grateful for the opportunity to create and share my journey, and through my work, I aim to help others find harmony, create balance, and embrace positive change in their lives.

I am a full-time professional artist with a passion for painting.
My work is collected both nationally and internationally, and I continue to evolve and grow through my art.

My mentors are some of the best artists in Ukraine, Volodymyr and Olena Ilyichov.
