The Parma Public Library is proud to present the paintings of Tatyana Bletsko for its sixty-sixth exhibit featuring the work of area artists.
Born in the Ukraine, Tatyana has now spent fourteen years in the United States and calls the Town of Greece her home. When she came, she brought with her six years of art training at the Moscow Art University. By her seventh year, she would have achieved her teacher certification, but the year was 1991, the year that the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics dissolved. Relations between her homeland and Russia were not such that she could continue her studies.
Tatyana mainly works in oils. Her landscapes offer viewers a sense of peace with a touch of majesty where she makes the sun touch the earth or sea.
Her florals are rendered meticulously in rich, vibrant colors. They offer a tireless look, for there are areas in her paintings where one could visit for a week and leave looking forward to the next visit.
When asked what she wished visitors to take away from her show, she replied, “We have been given great beauty in the world and witnessing it, I want to give beauty back in return.”
