This began as a self-portrait. My parents gave me a vyshyvanka — the traditional embroidered shirt that carries so much of what Ukrainian women have always known about beauty and endurance — and I drew myself wearing it.
Power of Light is that image. Black and white, a blue wreath, a circle of yellow light radiating from behind the figure like something that cannot be extinguished. The colours are not decorative. They mean what they mean.
It lives well in any space where you want presence on the wall — something that holds its ground quietly and completely.
Giclée print on premium museum-quality matte paper. Made to order, ships in 2–3 business days.
Available in various sizes — custom sizes on request.
Free US shipping. International shipping calculated at checkout. Delivered in a protective tube.
