Olga Kharyakova

“The meaning of life is to find your gift, the purpose of life is to give it away.”― Pablo Picasso
▰ I am Full-time modern artist over 12 years.
▰ The paintings are in the collection of the Zaporozhye Regional Art Museum, in private collections: Ukraine, Germany, Israel, Czech Republic, Italy, Russia, China.
▰ With an impressionistic touch, I create oil paintings with a unique character. The viewer's attention attract large emotional strokes, correctly taken tonal relationships.
▰ Nature is my greatest source of inspiration. I always capture the moment, my impression of the state in nature. I paint only from nature and in the plain air. This is a constant hunt and a daily quest to capture light, air and space.
▰ I enjoy unlimited creative power and I also write emotional abstractions. We create our own life, we ourselves make it colorful and amazing.
▰ I completely changed the direction of my life in adulthood. I studied with passionate teachers and received an advanced training at the School of Contemporary Art Kiev. Since 2012 I have been a member of the public organization of artists Kolorit in Zaporizhzhia.
