About the Artist

Viktoria Sukhanova was born in 1989 into a family of art lovers who nurtured her creative spirit from an early age. She pursued her passion academically, earning a Master’s degree in Design and Fine Arts in Kyiv, Ukraine.

Victoria’s paintings offer an abstract interpretation of the world around her, capturing the vibrant atmosphere of her surroundings. Her primary subjects include still lifes, cityscapes, and expressive landscapes. Most of her artwork is created en plein air (from life)—traveling extensively with her sketchbook and easel serves as her constant source of inspiration.
