Garden of tranquility Print

As far back as I can remember, I have been drawing. An artist, a painting teacher, a participant in international exhibitions, master classes, and festivals - all this is about me. I work with different techniques - graphics, watercolors, landscapes, mosaics, but color linocut became my special passion. Fortunately, my greatest admirer and ideological inspirer is my husband, Pavlo Nikolaychuk. Thanks to him, many absolutely magical paintings were born in my workshop. One of the great authors said: "Art is completely useless, but without this uselessness, it is absolutely impossible to live!" I think people are born with creativity, and if you have it, it is impossible not to create. Because this is the same process as breathing. Correctly say you can not do - do not. But if, on the contrary, it is creativity. Here is a short video of creative process https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtTNQZQ6CQo. I was the curator of the international project "1st International mini-print in Kiev" in 2010, Central House of Artists, Kyiv, Ukraine, Tarnobrzeski and "Na Pietrze" Galleries, Keltsi, Poland.
