About


Born in 1978 in USSR - and spend my happy childhood in Soviet Union nonexistent country now.
When I was little girl I got incredibly inspired by TV movies about Gypsies – drew women in picturesque dresses, dancers, horses & dreamed of such merry life as they had…

I'm Ukrainian by nation, but I was born in Riga and received my Fine Arts Master's degree in painting in the Art Academy in Latvia. Now working with my artworks I got incredibly inspired by irrational and uncontrollable expression of surrealism and old baroque paintings of Spanish school.
My first group exhibition where I take part was in 1997 in Australia. This International Latvian Youth Art Exhibition has bought together works by young Latvian artists from Latvia, Australia, America, Canada and Germany.
My works appear in various private collections in Latvia, Lithuania, Russia, England, Italy, Germany and Australia.
