Biography
My name is Vladyslav Durniev, and I’m an artist from Ukraine. I work primarily with oil paints and a palette knife — a technique I love for its raw energy and honest expression.
For me, painting is not just about depicting the world, but about feeling it — and sharing that feeling with the viewer.
I’m inspired by color, light, and atmosphere. Sometimes it’s a rainy cityscape, sometimes a moment of stillness among flowers, or the shimmer of sunlight on water. I don’t aim for precision — I aim for life in the brushstrokes, for emotion, for the mood of the moment.
I paint intuitively. Every texture, every color, carries my response to life, to memory, to movement. I’m not trying to impress — I simply speak in the language of paint. And if one of my works makes you pause, smile, or feel something — then we’ve already connected.
Technique: All of my paintings are created by hand with oil paints, mostly using a palette knife on canvas or canvas board. I work in a textured, expressive style — often in one sitting — to preserve the spontaneous energy of the moment.
