I have now completed my series of portraits and feel drawn to further explore my artistic expression through landscape.
Why do we never cease to admire nature — its beauty, its quiet workings — even in something as simple as a blossoming twig? Every spring arrives like a gentle revelation; it is never the same, never grows tiresome, and invites us to contemplate the world’s reawakening anew time and again.
How often have artists drawn inspiration from blossoms? And yet they remain the purest expression of beauty...

I am an aspiring artist from Ukraine and moved to Germany in early 2022 because of the war in Ukraine. Ever since I was a child, I have felt drawn to drawing and the world of art. I learnt to draw in an art studio and took part in exhibitions, but unfortunately, the profession of an artist was not regarded as prestigious in society. That is why I decided to study journalism at university rather than art.
However, after graduating from university and changing jobs several times, I realised that my life was incomplete without art and that I could not devote myself to anything else. So I decided to study fine art. I attended the studio of a Ukrainian artist, but had to interrupt my studies because of the war.
In 2023, I resumed my art studies at an art school here in Cologne, where I studied for a year whilst also taking private lessons. I now work in the studio of an experienced artist, Oleksii, and am constantly improving my skills.
I am only at the beginning of my creative journey, but I feel the strength to carry on. I love trying out new techniques and materials, which is why you’ll find a wide variety of drawings and paintings on my website. Art is a part of me – it defines who I am, and I cannot live without it.
