Tetiana is amazed and inspired by the spectacular Pacific Northwest whenever she hikes through the rain forest, watches each unique sunset over the ocean or travels through the B.C. Interior. Nature is plentiful in its gifts of beauty and Tetiana yearns to capture that perfect and blissful scene and transpose it onto canvas.

She observes the world around her in search for unique angles and unreal color combinations to create a disposition of nature in her paintings; as in, a sort of mood that the paintings should bring to the audience.

As she starts each new painting, her heart leaps with joy as she fathoms the beauty that is yet to emerge from her imagination. But beauty is subjective; therefore, Tetiana tries to leave a segment of her art open to interpretation. Part of this can be seen in the near absence of clearly separating lines and boarders in her works. This lets the audience create these lines and is a vital part of her "disposition of nature” as it lets each individual’s unique mind create such lines and boarders and differently interpret the painting’s mood.

Tetiana tries to instill both drama and tranquility of natural landscapes by injecting fluidity, depth and emotion into each image. Her goal is to touch others emotionally and positively through her art; as well, to delve all the different ideas and sceneries in her own mind, for her own enjoyment.
