ARTIST:
Born on February 1, 1974. Since childhood, she drew a lot, so she naturally chose the artistic path: she graduated from art school, and after secondary education she entered the Kharkiv Art School. Later, she returned to Poltava, where she continued her studies at the Technical University at the Faculty of Architecture, at the Department of Fine Arts under the guidance of a creative and inspired personality - Oleksandr Tarasenko.

From the second year of university, she began working at the Poltava State Television "Ltava". Here she created the image of the channel, worked on the scenery, the style of TV presenters, and performed organizational and administrative tasks. For a while, she tried herself as a curtain designer. She worked as a photographer and designer in photo studios and enterprises, actively using the Photoshop program. Despite different creative directions, she always returned to the most important thing - drawing.

Since 2005, I have been collaborating with Poltava art salons. At first, she worked in the batik technique, and later she increasingly turned to oil painting. In addition to selling her works, she painted portraits, wall paintings, and collaborated with interior designers.

In 2014, after the birth of her second child, she spent a lot of time in medical institutions. Despite difficult circumstances, she was later able to return to her professional activities. Since 2022, she has worked at Lyceum No. 33, where she taught fine arts. At the same time, she restored her creative form: she created graphics, very subtly felt children's themes in fantasy plots, because her own child was sick, and I saw a lot of human grief in hospitals, and also worked on portraits.

Since 2023, I have additionally worked at a lyceum where hairdressers and tailors study. Together we master the depiction of faces, the creation of images, and the basics of clothing design projects.

Currently, I work with adults at the DOM-ART art studio in Poltava, participate in exhibitions, and cannot imagine my life without art and drawing.
