About artwork

The concept of the work “Scream”: During the war in Ukraine, many civilians died, including

more than 400 children. In the foreground of the painting, a burnt field of sunflowers

is a symbol of all those families and children who died. Because the sunflower

and each seed is a symbol of the family. Every burnt grain is someone’s lost life. The girl

screams to the sky about the senselessness of war, about the pain of losses. Also her cry

for hope for peace, plea for peace, cry for help and hope for peace! Behind the girl, the

field and the sky as symbols of Peace and Happiness!

Про роботу

Концепція роботи «Крик» : За час воєнний дій на Україні померло багато мирних

людей, серед них більше 400 дітей. На передньому плані картини згоріле поле

соняшників- то символ усіх , тих загиблих родин, дітей. Тому що соняшник і

кожне зернятко, то символ роду. Кожне згоріле зернятко, то чиєсь втрачене життя.

Дівчина кричить до неба о безглуздості війни, про біль втрат. Ще її крик про надію

на мир, благання миру, крик про допомогу та надію на Мир! За дівчиною поле і

небо як символи Миру та Щастя!

I have been drawing all my life. I have a professional art education. The main thing

in my work is the image of a person. I am interested in historical figures and our

ontemporaries, a special place in my work is the reflection of female images. I work in

the genre of realism, favorite techniques: oil and watercolor painting

Малюю все своє життя. Маю професійну художню освіту. Головне в моїй творчості,

це зображення людини. Мене цікавлять історични постаті та наші сучасники,

особливе місце у моєї творчості займає відображення жіночих образів. Працюю у

жанрі реалізму, улюблені техники: олійний та акварельний живопис
