I am a visual artist born and raised in Kyiv,Ukraine. I have been living in Spain since 2020, from the moment I ended up there during quarantine due to the covid 19.

In Ukraine, I`ve got a professional education in Kyiv State Academy of Decorative Art And Design Named after M. Boychuk and had the experience to work in the main Christian church of Ukraine as a master of icon painting, that allowed me to get acquainted with all the subtleties of Byzantine art.
