In 2024 Maryna currently has her painting ‘First Snow’ included in an all-Ukrainian exhibition at Central House of Artists of the National Union of Artists of Ukraine in Kyiv.

Maryna Shkoliar’s work effortlessly balances classical elegance with a contemporary edge, much like Fornasetti’s Tema e Variazioni series, where subtle details are elevated into something captivating. Her paintings carry a quiet energy that brings a space to life, inviting viewers to pause and appreciate their depth.

Drawing from realism and impressionism, Shkoliar’s art captures fleeting moments with a light, deft touch. Through her use of oil and acrylic, she skillfully combines fluid brushstrokes and textured impasto to create work that feels timeless yet modern. There’s a soft sense of nostalgia woven into her pieces, as they evoke both the tangible world and an underlying emotional resonance. Her art engages the viewer on a reflective journey, offering not only a visual experience but also a moment to contemplate and connect.

Priced at £300 each, her paintings are an accessible entry into exceptional fine art that quietly enhances any space, adding a touch of sophistication and a sense of calm. Shkoliar’s work feels like a subtle invitation to slow down and appreciate the simple beauty in the details.
