Notes for Contemplation, 2026

Oleg Sharapanovsky  

Hello!

My name is Oleg Sharapanovsky, and I'm pleased to invite you into the world of my art. I'm an artist from Kryvyi Rih, Ukraine, and each of my works is a window into my soul. My impasto works, executed with a palette knife, immerse the viewer in a space where every brushstroke and every layer of paint create unique texture and depth.

For me, art is a way to freeze a moment, to convey feelings and thoughts that cannot be expressed in words. My palette is a reflection of emotions, where each color comes alive, telling its own story. I believe that through art we can achieve harmony and mutual understanding, and my paintings are an invitation to embark on this journey.

My works are in private collections: Ukraine, Russia, Georgia, Poland, Germany, Great Britain, Israel, Spain, Italy, USA, Canada, France, Czech Republic, Ireland, Sweden.
