Ukrainian artist Yevgenia Gapchinskaya is called the “supplier of happiness” for her surprisingly bright and kind paintings that return back to childhood. How does Eugene manage to create such simple and, at the same time, magical drawings, to which she gives charming names, and what paintings can be found in her gallery?
Happiness seller story
Evgenia Gapchinskaya received her academic education at the Kharkov Art and Industry Institute (faculty of painting), which she later “polished” by the Nuremberg Academy of Arts. The artist became famous thanks to the director of a Vienna museum, who ordered fifteen paintings from Eugenia about a little red-haired girl traveling through workshops in which great artists of past eras worked.
Evgenia Gapchinskaya received her nickname "provider of happiness No. 1" from gallery owners and critics, making happiness her personal brand.
Today, the Gapchinskaya galleries are open in Kiev, Odessa, Dnepropetrovsk and Moscow. Her paintings, filled with bright and cheerful stories that bring to life little charming little men, are in the collections of many famous people. So, Evgenia’s magical drawings hang in the houses of Luciano Pavarotti, Vladimir Spivakov, Nikita Mikhalkov, Oleg Yankovsky, Andrey Shevchenko, Andrey Malakhov, Tina Kandelaki and many other stars. It is believed that the paintings of the Ukrainian artist bring peace and happiness to the house - after all, just look at the painted sweet tooth, a boy in a leaky sock, a little man with a beetle in a box or a tiny ballerina, as all the negativity instantly disappears.
