KATERYNA BILOKUR TRAGEDY AND SUCCESS

A century has passed since the birth of a great Ukrainian artist Kateryna Bilokur. Those hundred years comprised flashes of talents, successes and failures, victories and disappointments. Kateryna Bilokur was born in a peasant family in 1900 in the village of Bohdanivka near Yahotyn. She did not have any education and had to study by herself. She mastered literacy, read a lot and her soul craved for something unattainable.

The great word artist seemed to her so magic and beautiful. She said to herself that sooner or later she would become an artist. She kept re­peating that life without art wasn't possible for her. She painted flowers. She also called the flowers “the eyes of the Earth”
