Held by the horizon

This painting is inspired by the gentle reassurance of space , where land, sky, and time meet in quiet balance.
A lone house rests within sweeping colour and wind, symbolising refuge, memory, and the strength found in stillness.
The flowing strokes bring movement and passing seasons, while the horizon holds everything together, steady and patient.
It reflects moments of pause in an ever-shifting world, when simplicity feels profound and solitude feels safe. Held by the Horizon speaks of belonging without boundaries, of being cradled by nature’s vastness, and of finding peace not in escape, but in presence.

From an early age, I was drawn to creative expression, discovering my passion for art as soon as I could hold a crayon.
I pursued this passion academically, earning a degree in Art Education in Ukraine, which laid the foundation for my artistic and teaching career.
After relocating to Australia in 2002, I continued to develop my practice and actively sought opportunities to exhibit my work.
I have since participated in various art prizes and exhibited in local galleries, while also sharing my knowledge through teaching, both in my home studio and within the school community attended by my children.
For me, art is more than a passion; it is a lifelong journey of exploration, growth, and connection. Through both my creative practice and teaching, I aim to inspire others to experience the joy and transformative power of art. My work has allowed me to engage with audiences locally on the Gold Coast and internationally, reinforcing my belief in creativity as a universal language that enriches lives.
