Nadiya Makaryuk

My name is Nadezhda, and I draw because it brings joy. I began to draw on wooden slices to distract from my monotonous work with numbers and tables. When my daughter was born, I started creating paintings for sale. The war did not drive us out of our house, but it took away my husband's job and made life difficult for the whole family and the whole country. I do not want to give up my passion, because if I stop creating, then the war has taken away my dream.
