About
Tanya Pshenychny
I was born in Kiev, Ukraine and immigrated with family to the Midwest at age 9. After drawing through high school and facing a brick wall upon graduation, I didn’t know what to do with myself but to continue to draw and hope that wall would eventually fall apart. When it finally did, it was too late for college or art school because I had lost interest in that while I developed my work on my own. Life went on and everything happened for a reason.I love using the unpredictability of watercolor and the power of ink to illustrate messages and themes. I compare humans to animals, and vice versa, and explore metaphors. Some of my personal work has a lot of personal meaning, some of which I rather not discuss. I strive for each piece to speak for itself.
Razorberries are the fruits of my labor and sometimes are a little hard to swallow. It’s a word I made up for my creations. They’re like little raspberries wrapped in barb wire. ..Or something like that. With all good, there is bad. Razorberries don’t grow on trees!
