Bring a unique, hands-on art experience to your event! I host engaging art parties and workshops where kids and adults learn real art techniques — no tracing or templates. Participants are guided step-by-step using watercolor, acrylics, and pencil drawing while creating artwork they’re proud of.
In addition to painting, guests can enjoy creative crafts such as polymer clay earrings, dried floral arrangements, denim design, and seasonal DIY projects.
Each event is fun, inspiring, and welcoming to all skill levels. Guests leave with a beautiful handmade piece and new artistic skills. Perfect for birthday parties, private events, and creative gatherings. 🎨

Guests can expect a seamless, elevated creative experience that blends art, relaxation, and meaningful connection. I specialize in guided painting and art events designed to be both approachable and inspiring—perfect for guests of all skill levels.
What sets my classes apart is that I teach real artistic skills—no tracing. Guests learn how to build their artwork from the ground up using simple geometry, understanding light and shadow, creating form, and blending colors with intentional brushwork. This approach builds confidence while still keeping the experience fun and relaxed.
Each event is thoughtfully curated and includes all professional art supplies, step-by-step instruction, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that encourages creativity without pressure. I offer a variety of mediums including watercolor, acrylic, polymer clay, pressed flowers and leaves, fabric art, and decoupage—and can tailor each experience to match your event theme or vision.
Whether it’s a private party, corporate event, or public class, I customize every detail to fit your audience and create a memorable, engaging experience. Guests leave not only with a beautiful finished piece, but with new skills and a true sense of accomplishment.
From setup to cleanup, I handle everything—so you can enjoy a smooth, stress-free event while your guests create something truly special.
Born and raised in an artistically inspired family in Ukraine, creativity has
always been at the heart of my life. Surrounded by the beauty of my
parents’ art, I developed a deep passion for transforming ideas into color,
form, and expression.
Since moving to the USA in 2009, I’ve dedicated myself to nurturing that
creative spark — not only in my own work but in others’. I find immense joy
in guiding students of all ages, from children discovering the basics of art
to adults exploring new techniques and personal expression.
As a teacher, my greatest reward is seeing the spark of inspiration light up
in every student, turning curiosity into confidence and imagination into
creation.
Join me at Art Core Academy and embark on a journey to unlock your
creativity, explore new possibilities, and bring your artistic vision to life.

Here’s a refined and meaningful version that keeps it professional while reflecting your story and values:
---
My greatest influence comes from my parents, who bring over 40 years of experience in both art education and professional artistic practice. Growing up in that environment shaped my foundation—where art was not just a hobby, but a discipline rooted in observation, technique, and creative expression. Their dedication to teaching and creating instilled in me a deep respect for building real artistic skills and sharing that knowledge with others.
I am also deeply inspired by nature and the beauty that surrounds us. The colors, textures, and harmony found in the natural world influence much of my work, especially in watercolor and botanical art. I believe that this beauty is a reflection of God’s creation, and I strive to bring that sense of wonder and appreciation into every class and experience I offer.
These influences—strong artistic tradition, meaningful teaching, and the inspiration of nature—shape both my work and the way I guide others in discovering their own creativity.
