Sofiia Yefimova

I am a Ukrainian artist specializing in traditional Petrykivka painting — a unique decorative art form known for its expressive floral motifs, rhythmic compositions, and symbolic language.

My work is deeply inspired by Ukrainian cultural heritage, where each element carries meaning and reflects a connection to nature, harmony, and life. Through my paintings, I aim to preserve and reinterpret this tradition in a contemporary context, making it accessible and relevant today.

I work with both classical techniques and modern applications, exploring how Petrykivka painting can exist not only on canvas but also in everyday objects and design. Each piece I create is hand-painted and one of a kind, combining tradition with personal artistic expression.

In addition to creating artworks, I teach Petrykivka painting through private lessons and workshops, sharing knowledge and inspiring others to discover this beautiful art form.
