UK-based. Born in Odesa, Ukraine in 1986. I've graduated from K. Kostandi School of Fine Arts and later from the Odesa M.B. Grekov School of Fine Arts, and now live in UK. Three months into the war I suddenly started to paint, having not touched the brush and paint for over a decade. It has become the only activity that would help me not to constantly think about the war. My three biggest interests in life are colour, light and people. And so I try to synthesise this relationship of three into my art.
