I am a self taught artist originally from Ukraine and have lived in Clackmannan in Scotland for last 19 years. I work in a variety of mediums including oils, soft pastel, acrylic and pyrography. Being a lover of animals and nature I would consider this to be my favourite subjects to paint. My choice of painting varies from landscape to wildlife depending on my mood on the day. I exhibit in many venues throughout Central Scotland.
As a member of Central Arts Association I currently have work on display in their two ”Ongoing” exhibitions namely ”The Gallery” at G R MacFarlane, Watchmaker, Jewellers & Art Gallery, 41 Mill Street, Alloa and also their “Ongoing” Charity exhibition in Blossoms Coffee Shop/bistro at Torwood Garden Centre in Larbert in aid of Strathcarron Hospice and Macmillan Cancer Support Scotland.
I enjoy donating my paintings and small artworks to the RSPB and to local events. I am also a member of both Stirling and Falkirk art clubs and exhibit in their annual exhibitions every year and have won many awards at these exhibitions for my paintings.
I obtained a Diploma with distinction pass in Pet portraiture following a course with London Art College.
