Description
This is a digital reproduction of a real painting: 2023, Summer.
Handmade canvas and stretcher, 93x75 cm, acrylic, stencil.
"The painting was created by me in the spring of 2023. During this time, it was represented at 10 exhibitions and charity events (Lviv-Kyiv). I admired the character of the majestic Cossack, which was fashionable and modern for its time (if you study the real history of the Cossacks), and shed rivers of blood for Ukraine. And now
monuments devoted to Cossacks rise almost
in every city of Ukraine as an image of the Motherland's Invincibility. The canvas is made of home-spun linen fabric which my great-grandmother wove, her name was Oleksandra (grandmother survived the famine, the war, and gave this world 9 children, which created a large family tree). And great-grandson Andriy became an artist and now creates paintings
from the fabric she wove in the 50s. It is so soul-warming!"
