Waiting for the dawn

Alexandra Musienko, Ukraine

Alexandra Musienko is a Ukrainian artist and photographer. Born in Kyiv, November 20, 1983. Belongs to a group of young talented artists of Ukraine who have their own unique original pictorial style. Alexandra works in the technique of monochrome contrast painting, using two local colors - white and black. With the help of smooth lines, highlights and shadows, she creates her mesmerizing, very feminine and sensual paintings. Her works decorate modern interiors and private collections around the world. The artist’s skill has been developed over the years. She took private painting lessons. She visited the world's galleries, museums, and examined classic paintings, on the basis of which she developed her own unique stylistic image. The paintings show the fog of bohemian salons of the early 20th century and the haze of black and white cinema; the light of the human soul and the shadow of relationships. By deliberately removing color from her works, the artist achieved an accurate transmission of visual emotion thanks to special subtle sensations of line and compositional harmony of forms. The first painting painted was a portrait of the world famous actress Audrey Hepburn, who is a symbol of sophisticated elegance. Since then, the desire to paint has been embodied in numerous sensual paintings, most of which display the beauty of the female body and the mystery of human emotions. Her paintings are in demand and recognizable; they join private collections in Germany, Estonia, Italy, Spain, and France. There are no boundaries or prohibitions for art; it works on feelings and intellect.
