Iryna Tyshchenko is an artist from Kakhovka, Kherson region. She worked in applied arts.
After the invasion of Russia, she and her family moved to Ternopil.
Then she looked for ways to make her ideas happen.
She later applied for a competition from a charity. She won and rented a studio to start her art workshop. She named it Teplo.
It now offers decorative arts workshops for adults and children. The classes include wool felting, clay modeling, painting with texture paste, sewing, and botanical bas-relief.
She plans to expand her art studio and involve more Ternopil residents in her work.
