IMPORTANT
MESSAGE FOR ALL SUPPORTERS OF UKRAINE:
As the whole World knows there are millions of Ukrainian citizens
suffering the traumatic psychological and economic effects of the
terrible Russian war against Ukraine. For most Ukrainians daily
life has become a real struggle - including for myself whose sole
income for me and my young daughter is now my artworks. The fact
is that with the economy in limbo, the unemployment rate is very
high and it is not likely that new work opportunities will appear
for some time.
I wish to take this moment to thank everyone from the bottom of
my heart to all of the millions of donors that have offered all
kinds of assistance to Ukraine and its citizens from the smallest
gifts of clothing and food to millions of dollars by several Governments,
as well as of course all of the military aid. As a Ukrainian citizen,
I am also very proud of all the brave men and women defending our
sovereign nation. We truly appreciate all of the support that we
have been given and of course I pray that this war ends quickly.

From
the Artist:
Polina
Dudkina was born in Poltava, Ukraine on August 23, 1986. I lived
and grew up in Poltava, went to school like all children and at
the same time studied at the Sunflower Art Studio.
Under the leadership of the excellent leader Natalia, I achieved
success in painting and won prizes in regional competitions. After
the Sunflower Studio, I studied at the Poltava Children's Art
School. Graduated from 4th grade, out of 5 possible. I also took
part in urban competitions and had exhibitions with prizes in
sculpture and painting.
In
2007, thanks to the help of a friend who supports creative people
around the world, David Flather, helped me to graduate to the
use of an airbrush. I then established an airbrush studio in Kharkov,
Ukraine. The airbrush studio was called "SAStudio".
Later
I participated in 10 workshops, and worked on paintings to order
for Ukrainian connoisseurs and the first family from Mexico. Their
collection includes works of different styles. Portraits of animals,
surrealism, everything is written in pastel and colored paper.
Thanks to this Family, I had the opportunity to remain in history
and already exhibited works from their private collection in the
exhibition hall of the “Holy Wolf” gallery in 2013 City of Guadalajara,
Mexico.
I
truly love all materials: watercolors, oil paints, pastels, acrylics,
clay and wood. For me, each material is special and each material
can produce its own unique miracle.
