She would paint flowers but never picked them.
She didn't attend art school or even any school but was self-taught.
She survived Holodomor and refused to paint the portrait of stalin.
🎨All these facts are just a small part of the lifestory of Kateryna Bilokur - personally one of my favorite Ukrainian folk artists. Her passion and talent are undoubtedly impressive.
Her parents though didn't understand her painting hobby. One of her life stories:
"I stole a piece of white canvas from my mother and took charcoal. I would draw something on one side of the canvas and then flip it on the other side, same here. And then I would wash that canvas and draw again. At once, I didn't paint a landscape but the birds and felt so happy that I managed to create something like that! I would look at that painting and laugh as I was mad. And just like that, my father and mother caught me. They torn apart my painting and threw it into the fire, saying, "What are you mad doing? God forbid, what if others saw you doing what you do? Then no one will ask to marry you"
Despite the parents' disapproval, her paintings became so popular that Picasso, after seeing one of her paintings in Paris display, said: "If we had an artist of such level of skill, we would make the whole world talk about her".
🪄I gathered here some of her most significant pictures but highly recommend getting to know more about her works.

Kateryna Vasylivna Bilokur (Ukrainian: Катерина Василівна Білокур; December 7 [O.S. November 24] 1900 – 9 June 1961) was a Ukrainian folk artist born in the Poltava Governorate. Her birth date is unknown but December 7 is used as her official birthday. After an unpromising start, her works became known in the late 1930s and 1940s for their interest in nature. She was named People's Artist of Ukraine. It is said that Pablo Picasso saw her work exhibited in Paris and commented, "If we had an artist of this level, we would make the whole world talk about her."

"This work of Kateryna Bilokur creeps me out because it looks like this child is dead. This light blue color has something from the afterlife, the beyond. The work is called "Dream." She survived Holodomor, war, the authorities' abuse, hate from her family and still became an artist."
