Hello everyone. This is my art site. I will post my art collection when I can, although it is a large collection and it will take some time. In the meantime please enjoy what I have on this site. Also, I will work on producing such things as reproductions, cards, etc. in case you like the painting, but can't afford the original.
If you want to contact me about things such as buying, more information, etc. you can email me at

About me
Biography: I was born in Poltava, Ukraine. I have been doing art since
I was four. I graduated the the Kyiv School of Art (Ukraine) in 1986, and
the Kyiv State University in 1993, with an MS in optical engineering and
education. When my family got the opportunity to immigrate to the US in
1994, we took advantage of it as it gave us a chance to cure a very sick
child. I have been to various art shows and sold art there. I also taught my own art lessons. I have worked with all types of paintings, and I have also worked on crafts made of wood. Unfortunately, I had to stop doing art around 2006 because of the rising gas prices, and all the troubles america was facing. When this happened, it became too costly for me to go on art shows, and the demand for art dropped during those times. In 2006, I took the job of a school teacher. In 2008, my husband got a job with ORNL, and we moved to Oakridge Tennessee. I am the mother of 7 children. My oldest is currently in medical school. My three eldest sons are studying in community college..
These are my most significant art shows:
* City Hall of Gainesville
February 11 - April 21, 2002
* Published in the book "Portraits of Modern Women," by a Ukrainian publisher, where 100 Ukrainian women are distinguished for their outstanding work.
* Governor's Gallery of Tallahassee
May 23 - August 18, 2003
Currently, I am working on helping a church illustrate a bible. I may post some examples of my illustrations in the near future.
