About me

I have been painting traditional Ukrainian wood art also known as "Petrikovka" for over 12 years now. The Petrikovka style of painting originated in the in Ukraine in the early 1700's . It is recognized by it's beautiful floral patterns , which I reproduce on variety of mediums, each piece is one of a kind , with no two being identical.
My work has been featured in craft shows throughout the Ukraine , and has also been sold in Germany , Russia and many other Eastern European countries.

I moved to Reno , NV . and married my husband in Dec. 2004 , and my work is now readily available to all who appreciate fine Ukrainian painting. Shortly after my arrival I was commissioned by Nevada Museum of Art to paint a wall mural of Russian church in conjunction with an exhibit of Russian icons that they were displaying. I have expanded my work to include hand painted Christmas ornaments , I produce a variety of different scenes on my ornaments from rustic cabins in a forest to beautiful renditions of Lake Tahoe.
I have also sold drawings of native North American wildlife that I did in fine pencil and have done portraits of people's personal pets in acrylic paint on beautiful wood boxes . I have also painted seascapes and marine animals on natural oyster shells that make you feel like you are at the ocean when you look upon them.

I hope that you enjoy my work as much as many other citizens around the world have. Please feel free to contact me at arttatyana@sbcglobal.net or at arttatyana1@narod.ru .You may also reach me at [775] 527-1927, my mailing address is 6125 Dutch Flat Rd., Sun Valley , NV, 89433

Ornaments with pets painted on them popular; Reno gallery taking orders for next season

The offer of hand-painted ornaments personalized with the likeness of people's pets proved to be a big draw at Art Source gallery prior to Christmas, so gallery owner Christel Citko said they're taking orders for next season.

The ornaments are the work of Tetyana Gusyeva Anderson, a Reno artist originally from Ukraine. Citko hosted Anderson in December at the south Reno gallery where people brought in photos of their pets for Anderson to recreate. The ornament sale also was part of a charitable effort to benefit local animal shelters. Citko said the ornament sale raised nearly $700, which was divided into $350 for the Nevada Humane Society and $350 for the SPCA. Because they were inundated with requests for the hand-painted ornaments in December, Citko said she wanted to extend the offer to people who'd like to order an ornament now for next Christmas. Ornament prices start at $35, and increase when more than one animal is to be painted. "Many of the ornaments are taking 3 to 4 hours each to do," Citko said. "Tetyana is giving each pet her undivided attention and detail so real you think you can reach out and touch them." Anderson also specializes in pet portraits on canvas, which are available starting at $295, or portraits of people with their pets on ornaments or canvas; prices for those are quoted per request.
