CURRENT MISSION to learn the world and its inhabitants ABOUT ME I am an optimistic artist-illustrator living and working in Groningen, the Netherlands. I moved to Groningen from Ukraine in 2006 and finished Master program of Dutch Culture at the university of Groningen in 2007. Same year I got my Master diploma of English and Dutch languages and literature from Kiev university. It was a crazy year! :) Since graduating I've changed my path to a more creative one and became a freelance illustrator specializing on illustrations for children. I have a wonderful husband Alex who is doing his PhD in physics at the university of Gronigen. Together we love traveling, photography and meeting great people! To find out more about me and see my artwork please visit my website : www.oksancia.com My illustration gallery at IStockphoto: http://www.istockphoto.com/user_view.php?id=2605600&?refnum=Oksancia PHILOSOPHY I'm a fatalist to some extend and I believe that everything I do gives me something positive...So I hope that this project will bring something fresh and good in my life.
