Reflection of beauty.
Toronto, Canada. May 2017

AUTHOR
I was born in Kharkov, Ukraine in 1984. Now I live and work in Toronto, Ontario.
In 2005, I graduated from Kharkov State Academy of Design and Arts and in the same year, I moved to Canada.
While I studying I was worked as a retoucher/image corrector and a graphic designer in an advertisement agency.
I try myself in different creative directions: mosaics, jewelry design,
model business, photography.

One of my greatest passions has always been creating art projects. Not even the busy life of an immigrant and mother of three - all girls - could make me set it aside. It seemed everything would change when I, without a steady job or other sources of income, had to go through a divorce. I got a loan to pay my ex for the house so that my little girls could stay in their home. This loan was not easy to pay back. It was hard going. I took odd jobs, cleaning houses, selling flowers, serving in restaurants. And still, with the hectic work schedule and the time I had to devote to my children, art was still there. I always found some time for it. An hour, two, anything, at least something. Finally, I found a loving, caring man and my family became whole again.
Now I have an Etsy shop (jewellery) and working as a photographer.
I believe my works is a reminder that a woman can be beautiful, loving and successful if she never gives up on her dreams.
Art is a major part of my life. I cannot live without thinking about art, creating art projects or looking at the masterpieces.
