I paint wild things — but really, I paint feelings.

My work is rooted in the quiet strength we carry. It’s about the wild parts of us that survive storms — loss, love, motherhood, war, and the everyday changes that shape us. I began painting after we left Ukraine and moved to Poland. In a time when everything felt uncertain, art became a way to process, to breathe, and to stay present.

I'm self-taught, and my inspiration comes from nature, from being a mother of four, and from the stories we all hold but don’t always have words for. My paintings often feature animals — not just for their beauty, but because they mirror us. They are soft and fierce, lost and resilient, wild and deeply tender. Just like we are.

Each brushstroke is a conversation with the quiet parts of life — grief that lingers, love that anchors, hope that flickers but doesn’t go out. I try to paint what it feels like to keep going.

These paintings are for people who’ve been through loss, change, and hard seasons — and still believe in beauty, still choose kindness. If you see yourself in these wild things, then they were always meant for you.
