Spring has been a bit of a disappointment for us this year. But at the end, after weeks of prolonged rain, we’re entering the season of gorgeous blossoms. This is when everything in the city blooms, blossoms, and is awash with brightness and fragrance within a week. Petals from blossoming trees fall onto the road, and we all feel like spring, meaning the sun is present in our region longer and more often. This is a joy.

A little earlier, waiting for this time, I created a collection, which I am putting up for sale today and recommend to you.

Although the entire collection consists of different variations of flower bouquets, I added my love for spring flowers and the light of spring’s radiance to them.

This celebration of blossoming and beauty has been gathered in my imagination and symbolizes a family tree—a flourishing, diverse, deep, and strong family tree of life.
It was this idea that ignited me at the beginning of spring and gave me the realization that we are the continuation of our lineage, rooted deep in the earth and reaching upward, acquiring a branching crown of life through love and faith.
All that holds us together is our faith and our roots.
That’s why this work is especially dear to me. It is made in the Petrykivka style, a traditional Ukrainian folk art style in which I have been creating for over 15 years.
Incredible.

Such a long time, and yet I, like a little person, feel like an apprentice in this art form.Like just started)).


All these works are for sale and you can buy them. I have specially reduced the prices so that you receive them with a certificate of authenticity.

Or do you just collect art work with your eyes?
Have a wonderful spring mood.

Collection of winter paintings by Helen Polishuk

Helen Polishuk

The beginning of the new 2019 year inspired me to write about my paintings about winter.

You will immediately think that I love this topic. I live in Canada, where there is a lot of winter,more than 6 month in year.
And I manage to draw winter. I often received prizes and exhibited my works at exhibitions or published them in publications.
But I will disappoint you, this is one of my directions, but not the most beloved. I am very good drawing the winter.
Now those traditions of drawing, with which I started ,a little outdated.
This is still the traditional East European school, the old Russian traditions

Over the years I began to move away from the primary methods of drawing.
You will be able to see how my equipment has changed on the example of the exposed photos in this post.
I am not an adherent of one theme and one style, one picture.
I always want a new one. It is in my life I am fidget.

I don’t have many of them for a long time. They are in collections all over the world.

Already living in Canada,I created  intresting collection of small paintings devoted to winter.
This is a lively collection filled with originality.
There are many things that show that I live in Canada. These are the buildings of houses and the landscape of nature.
I set up here to draw small pictures.
I will not say that it is special. I liked it.
Many critics say that on the contrary, it is harder to paint small paintings than big ones.
I will argue. It is easy for me to draw small paintings.

That’s just sometimes you have to repeat to remove the layer of paint, shade white.
Therefore, the painting is not created in one month, and sometimes it takes about a year to finish it. This is the process of highlighting more  places in the painting.
Using this painting as an example, I show how applying a bleached layer several times gives a glow to the picture.
It is like nourished with small bright lights.
Very impressive!!!!!

The range of shades is wide, although the winter landscape is monotonous.
This is not true in my collection.

I continue to look to my direction. And the rest of my work only complements what was said
