Stolen Youth Print

Oksana Masiutkina is a Ukrainian artist who arrived in the UK in July 2022 because Russians had occupied her home city Nova Kakhovka on the 24 of February 2022. She was happy to leave the occupation at the beginning of April with a hand suitcase and documents, leaving everything she had. She was admired by the arts all her life. She drew and painted from childhood. She started studying at an Art school when she was 7 years old and has an honours diploma degree. Her paintings and engravings were presented at that time at local exhibitions in the Soviet Union, the Czechoslovak Republic, etc. In 1988 she was working as a volunteer teaching Art to students. After graduating from school in 1991, she began her new life during the collapse of the Soviet Union. In these hard times of devastation, it was very complicated to navigate a life because everything that she learned no longer worked. The world had been created anew. Through very difficult trials. Nobody mentioned drawing. Everyone survived as best they could. Oksana built a very successful career as an engineer at the enterprises, then created a successful business in a cosmetic company, and worked as a life coach. In February 2020, she began her practice as an energy therapist (ThetaHealling and Access Consciousness). Painting has been playing as an Art therapy in her life. Before the war, her favourite technique was watercolour. The last painting in Ukraine was ‘Woman Harmony’. She made it with big inspiration and used some ThetaHealing tools. It helped women to balance their hormones. She left this painting at her aunt's house in Nova Kakhovka because it was impossible to take it. She hopes to see her aunt and painting when the city will be liberated from Russians. She started to paint again in May 2022 when she was passing through Germany. Oksana spent here 4 days and was invited to her friend`s Art class. She tried Acrylic and oil for the first time. All paintings, sketches and pics on Saatchi Art have been created since May 2022. Each of them is full of very special emotions, feelings and states. Each item was created with great inspiration and unconditional love. Each painting radiates special knowledge and sensations loaded with the Theta healing method. It is possible to create a painting to order and download the desired sensations and knowledge. For example, you can order a picture of the logo, emblem or symbol of your company. Additionally, order downloads Scaling or Flourishing.
