Hope Beyond Loss

This painting was a consolation gift to a sister in our Stake whose husband died. Sooner or later each of us will experience death of loved ones and will ask oneself the question "Will I still see you again?" The image of the resurrected Christ appearing to Mary is an attempt to give hope and comfort in the midst of grief and loss. This painting depicts the touching moment between grief and hopelessness and everlasting joy. It serves as a reminder that even in the darkest moments of life, there is hope and light, and that our loved ones who have passed away are not truly gone, but live on in the heavenly spheres.

I am a self-taught artist, born and raised in Ukraine. I was converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in 1993 when it first started in my country. My journey as an artist began during my teenage years, but I put it aside to focus on my academic pursuits. In 2020, I reignited my passion for creating, returning to the affection I had once set aside. 

In my art, I strive to find greatness in the simple things and highlight the often-overlooked beauty in the world around us. I aim to explore meaningful moments, often incorporating hidden details that reflect truth and invite deeper reflection. I firmly believe in the transformative power of art—not just as a visual medium, but as a way to reach into our homes and connect profoundly with our spirits.
