Valentina Samoilik-Artuyshchenco confidently creates contrasting colors on the canvas. In a series of his works the author turns to variations from blue, red color. Filling them entire picture space or just adding other characteristic accents, the artist singles out for the viewer’s perception, revealing to him the emotionality of the color.

The story line is not limited to the frames. Expressiveness of female images is amazing, in the landscapes can be traced pensiveness and dreaminess, and still lifes are emphatically decorative and devoid of excessive pomposity.

In each decision on the canvas there is warmth and lyricism. Each work is sentimental or vice versa, with an expressive inner core that allows you to look beyond the imaginary curtain, where the author sheself is.
