Presenter Information:  Alina Kriven is an accomplished Ukrainian artist, sculptor, and art teacher with a lifelong passion for creativity. Her artistic journey began in childhood when she enjoyed making crafts at home, which led to her enrollment in an art school for children where she honed her skills for six years. She went on to attend the Kyiv State Academy of Decorative Arts and Design, specializing in artist-sculptor but remained equally fascinated with painting. While studying, Alina worked as an art teacher at Mars Art Studio, where she shared her expertise in painting, drawing, and sculpture with both children and adults. Alina found great satisfaction in introducing people to the beauty of art and was thrilled to witness her students' progress over the years. Notably, Alina's art can be found in the beautiful and modern Gorky Park in the city of Kharkiv, Ukraine, where her works continue to adorn the park to this day.
