| Oksana Gruszka- Harmouche was born in Ternopil, Ukraine.
By the age of eight, Oksana’s teachers noted her exceptional talent in art. She challenged and was admitted into the Children’s School of Art in Ternopil, Ukraine. At the age of 17, Oksana graduated with two degrees: her high school diploma and a degree in Art. Oksana continued her studies and received her degree in Art and Architecture in 1990.
Oksana grew up in the Ukraine when it was isolated from the outside world. Fashion in her country was in a vacuum. Everything was dull, gray, and uniform. Since the very first time when she saw an Italian Vogue magazine, she was in love with the beautiful colors and patterns and style. Fashion magazines became a window to a wonderful world in the West.
For fifteen years Oksana worked as an architect, at first in the Ukraine and then the U.S. When the US market slowed down in 2007, Oksana returned to her passion for painting.
Oksana believes that urban architecture has to work in harmony with nature,... |
