Eugene Gorbachenko

I was born in 1993 in the small mining town of Marganets in the Dnipropetrovsk region, I also live and work in my hometown. My creative journey began with drawing in the margins of school notebooks. At school, I didn't have a single notebook with clean margins and covers, it really annoyed the teachers, the grade for keeping a notebook was appropriate. I think I started drawing because it distracted me from everyday problems, lack of money, my complexes at the time, plus drawing with a pencil is cheap and can be done anywhere. There were no professional artists in our family, but my mother and sister draw well. Earlier, drawing was considered an unpromising niche for development, especially in our city. Therefore, apparently, the relatives chose an easier way. He graduated from school in 2011. Tried to enter the Lviv National Academy of Arts, but did not pass on the budget, studying and living in a dormitory cost too much, had to give up the professional education of an artist. In 2012, he entered the Zaporizhia National University for the specialty "Practical Psychology" at the correspondence department. At the same time, he worked and visited the workshop of the local artist Kozlovsky Pyotr Oleksiyovych. In 2017, he finished his studies as a psychologist, but did not find a job in his specialty. Decided to develop as an artist.
