Sweden, Thailand and NYC ✈️ Paintings are traveling far and wide while I stay behind and make more.
Catching Flying Mice
These boys are off to Thailand.
I am so excited that my paintings are going to all these faraway exciting places, even while I am stuck at home and travel seems like a distant memory from someone else's past. 🙃
I love working with casual and somewhat odd snapshots as a starting point for paintings. I got this image from a bat biologist. A part of his job is to be out in the Ukrainian countryside most of the summer camping and setting up bat monitoring systems.
And the word for "bat" in Russian is "flying mouse" 🦇 🐁
Most of my paintings sell in the US, Canada and UK, but lately it seems I am getting a wider global reach. This is the first sell to Thailand. I am stoked!
Table Setting
This is one of my favorite paintings I've made.
I am so happy that it's found a permanent home and will now live in NYC.
It's been in many shows and traveled to Ukraine and back to be exhibited at the 5th Odessa Biennial in 2017.
And now it's going to hang in a charming Brooklyn apartment with beautiful parquet inlay and some sweet midcentury modern furniture. I can't wait to see what it looks like there ❣️
Mischa's Commission
Here's a super fun double portrait commission I finished recently. Painting this was like reliving memories of jumping into heaps of golden maple leaves in the central park in my hometown. ⠀

These kids are on their way to Sweden just in time for the holidays. This is the last holiday shipment to Europe for this year. I am happy to take your orders, but I cannot guarantee on-time arrivals anymore.⠀

Commissions will open again some time in January 2021.
Leave me a comment below and I'll add you to the waitlist. This way you'll be the first to hear when I start taking commission requests again.
