Confrontation of strength and spirit. Dedicated to brave Ukraine.

A few months ago, I painted, or created from a night photograph, a glowing window, a picture in which I depicted a little girl who resists the attack of a disgusting monster that stretches its slippery and greedy tentacles towards her.

Then, I did not know that this picture would be prophetic, that, very soon, the Ukrainian people would face aggression from the neighboring state, which called itself Russia and the brotherly people.

In this battle, the strength of the enemy's army and the strength of the spirit of the Ukrainian people collided.

Then, when I did the first strokes of the picture, I did not know that I would wake up to the sound of an air raid siren, I did not know that I would have to hide my children and seek shelter from a missile and bomb strike.

I could not imagine this is possible, I could not imagine that ardent hatred for the Russians would be born in my heart but it happened.

Someone will say that Western partners are helping Ukraine in this battle but I think that their cowardice has become very clear to the whole world.

I wouldn't like that an artist in Berlin in London in New York, suddenly, I would paint such a picture due to the fact that Russia attacked them too, but I don’t exclude this option and I won’t even show copyright, because, at that moment, they will get what they were looking for.

Their courage can save Ukraine and the world as a whole, but it is difficult to prove it to cowards.
