I born in 1977 in Bila Gora near Lviv. I`m a Ukrainian painter and master of folk art. I graduated from the Ternopil Higher Vocational School of Technology and Design with a specialization in “wood carving”. I`m a successful athlete and a bodybuilder.
In 2014 I won the XVIII International Autumn Salon “High Castle” at the Palace of Arts in Lviv.
I`m a member of the Association of Artists “Przystanek Sztuka” in Straszyn and a winner of the plebiscite of Dziennik Bałtycki “Personality of the Year 2019” in the Gdansk district in the category “culture”.I have many awards from the Gallery in London, Budapest, Paris, New York, etc.
My paintings are in private collections in London, Spain, Italy, Poland, and Germany. I`m the author of several murals in Gdańsk and Kashubia.
Since 2015, I have lived, worked, and created in Poland. I work on easel painting, wall painting, and sculpture.
In 2022 I was accepted by the Commission based on artistic achievements in Poland to ZPAP (Union of Polish Artists).
ARTIST’S STATEMENT
Where art meets nature and nature meets people, and their emotions this is where I appear. I draw everything that I see when I walk down the street: the beauty of nature, the expressions of human faces, and the accompanying emotions, moments that make me breathtaking, all this later finds itself in my paintings.
The most impressive thing is that it combines the beauty of the spirit (art, painting) and the body (bodybuilding, fitness). I always repeat that these two types of art have a common goal – achieving the ideal. I believe that through artistic means I have a real influence on what surrounds me
