Svitlana Makarenko - Ukrainian artist, was born in Kyiv region, Ukraine. In the period from 2003 to 2006, she received her education. I am currently engaged in artistic activity. I work in such styles as realism, impressionism, expressionism. The basis of my painting practice is the principle of "state". A meeting with a potential picturesque image can happen anywhere. Frequent travels, yoga, meditation also influence my art. For me, the environment is a flow of visual material. I am interested in the characters of people, their emotions, inner world and relationships, the rhythm of nature and the rhythm of the city, people, air, birdsong - everything that lives around me has the potential of a source of artistic expression. Active participant of International exhibitions. Works are in private collections: Ukraine, Japan, USA, Italy, Moldova, Turkey.
