About Yulia Odukalets
Biography
I'm Yuliia Odukalets, a Ukrainian oil painter inspired by the quiet beauty of everyday life. Through still lifes, flowers, and old-world places, I explore how ordinary moments can reveal something deeply personal.
TechniqueI create layered oil paintings using brushes, palette knives, natural materials, and everyday objects to build rich textures and expressive surfaces.
Artistic VisionMy work combines contemporary impressionistic painting with an old-world atmosphere, where colour, light, and familiar objects become invitations to slow down, reflect, and reconnect with ourselves.
InvitationI hope my paintings encourage viewers to notice the beauty often hidden in everyday life- and, in doing so, discover something within themselves.
Availability
Some paintings are currently part of exhibition projects and will be available for shipping in August.

The exhibition brings together three series - Places of Happy People, Porcelain. Home Stories and Forgotten Recipes. Chocolate - created between 2021 and 2026. The works explore memory, emotional states, inner freedom, family warmth and the search for personal balance.
