Ripple Reef

Ripple reef 🪸

Acrylic, gesso and gloss on stretched canvas, ready to hang, signed at the front, 80x80cm.

I’m continuing with series of paintings of vibrant underwater world, with beautiful corals and swimming tropical fish .
In this painting there’s a sunlight filtering through the surface of water, illuminating the colourful corals and schools of fish that create a sense of movement and energy .

I feel that the underwater coral reef is a truly magical place , filled with vibrant and diverse life. The sun shining through the ripples of the water creates a mesmerizing effect, casting playful shadows and dancing highlights on the coral reef and fish below.
Hope this painting brings a sense of wonder and joy to all who see it.

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.
