Svitlana Morhunov

Svitlana Morhunov has spent many years creating unique abstract art built on bright, bold color and expressive texture. Her paintings are meditations on light, faith and home, made to bring warmth and stillness to the rooms they live in.

A life in music and art

Art has always been a central part of Svitlana's life. She holds a bachelor's degree in music, and that training shapes everything she paints: rhythm in the brushstrokes, harmony in the color, and a sense of movement that carries across the canvas the way a melody carries through a room.

Exhibitions

Svitlana's work has been shown in a number of successful gallery exhibitions across Eastern Europe, where collectors were drawn to its warmth, energy and emotional depth. Today she paints and sells her work directly from her studio in Troy, Michigan.

Spirituality

Her work comes from a place of deep spirituality. Each painting holds a quiet meditation on light, faith, home and the connections between people. Read more in spirituality in abstract art.

Materials and process

Svitlana works in acrylic on stretched canvas, using palette knives, combs and broad brushes. She builds each surface layer by layer, from the first underpainting to thick impasto and luminous glazes.

• Sides painted black, so each canvas is ready to hang without a frame
• Signed on the back
• Finished with a protective varnish
