KHRYSTYNA BODNARUK

       Born in 1994 in Ternopil, Ukraine, I grew up surrounded by art, thanks to my grandfather, a post-impressionist painter. His influence inspired me to shift from music to the visual arts, where I focus on capturing emotion and character in my large-format, realistic portraits. I use dynamic brushstrokes to create a balance between calmness and chaos, revealing the inner world of my subjects.

        Currently, I’m exploring black and gray tattoos, with plans to specialize in color realism, blending my passion for painting with the art of tattooing.
