Olena Kamenetska-Ostapchuk - artist profile
During our last visit to Lviv I came across Olena’s show at the Green Sofa gallery. It was mostly paintings of her cat, prosaic, you’ll say, but the way she does it… Looking back I kind of compare her freshness of subject matter with Sasha Makarska. She is much more mature though, well-respected by the art critics, established in the Lviv art scene and yet to be discovered by the Kyiv buyers. Therefore her monumental pieces go for around $1,000.
Checking with her earlier works I found an amazing series of Lviv backyard landscapes. The light in them grabs your attention the most. I put out here every picture I could get my hands on from those series:

just need to call up the green sofa gallery and they will send you pics of her things, pricelist, even arrange for shipment maybe. The gallerina there is a fantastic lady and I think she speaks English. You can get their site off my blogroll
