about

I was born in Ukraine in 2002 and moved to France at the age of nine. I started my artistic journey at fifteen, also in France. My life changed in a single day, and I became completely obsessed with art. I drew every day without missing a single one for four years straight (honestly, I still think that’s pretty cool). I taught myself how to draw and paint digitally, spending countless hours studying online. I don’t consider myself gifted or naturally talented; I’m simply deeply passionate about art.

Wanting to grow further, I studied Fine Art at a French art school. Strangely enough, I didn’t learn oil painting there, everything I know about it, I taught myself. I spent my time creating alla prima paintings, studying the old masters, and making master copies. Artists like Sargent, Rembrandt, Bouguereau, and many others continue to inspire me.

Nature, light, and the idea of creating something truly unique and timeless guide my work. I always try to keep a sense of play in my process. It’s important for me to find a balance between order and chaos, between carefully rendered details and bold, impasto brushstrokes.

Feel free to explore my shop, gallery, or social media to learn more about my artistic process, and thank you for being here (really).
