I Am An Artist From Ukraine And I Created These Drawings Illustrating Horrors Of The War (23 Pics)
I would like to share my "war notes" made through drawings. We have only one home – it’s our planet. We should keep it safe.
In the 21st century we, all people and countries, should evolve and never act from a position of force, but from a position of negotiations, diplomacy, rationalism and consensus. It’s the main goal of humanity.
War is the worst mistake.
The best solution for war is never to start it.
We all are connected. Our energies and souls are connected.
Use your energy to create good, not evil.

Every living being is a sufferer of war. Animals in shelters and farms in occupied territories are massively dying from lack of food and water or after shelling. I watched a terrible video recorded in Borodyanka. Volunteers found only around 150 animals who survived out of 485.
My friends and lots of people often mention the phrase “My life is divided into before and after”. I think it says all about the overall feeling caused by the horrible war in Ukraine. These drawings are a tribute to the victims of the war. I want to save the memory of them and the horrors Ukrainian people have to endure.
Anastasia Yalanskaya's life ended on the 10th day of the war - March 4 in Bucha. Nastya and her two friends were shot by occupiers right in a car while returning from the dog shelter, where food for dogs was brought.
Bucha... Our hearts are shattered into thousands of pieces. The beautiful hand belongs to Iryna Folkina. We won't forget.
Through my drawings, I want to spread the message to all generations that war is the biggest mistake of humanity. We all have unique souls and stories to tell. We are not just numbers and statistics. We need to stop spreading hate and start spreading kindness instead while it’s not too late. We need to save our planet - our only home.
14.03.22 there was information about the death of a pregnant woman in Mariupol after the missile hit the maternity hospital.
She had a separation of the right thigh, caesarean section doesn’t save her child... I would like to dedicate this small art to this mother and other women, who were forced to suffer from war.
In Mariupol, a Russian occupant shot in the face of an 11-year-old girl. The bullet passed through the jaw and injured the root of the tongue. Currently, Milena Uralova is in the hospital with her mother. She is recovering but is still very nervous and afraid of every sound. Milena dreamed of becoming a professional gymnast.
I am grateful to our defenders: soldiers and territorial defense, those brave people, firefighters, evacuators, emergency service, transport workers, volunteers, chefs, and bakers. Everyone who cares and helps in this incredibly hard, dangerous and stressful time.
Historian, Jens-Kristian Wagner, published on his page on Twitter a note about the death of 96 y.o. Boris Romanchenko.
Boris Romanchenko was a prisoner in fascist concentration camps and survived Buchenwald, Peenemünde, Mittelbau-Dora and Bergen-Belsen. But he didn't survive after a bomb shelling by the Russian army.
After the bombing of his apartment in Kharkiv, only his bones and ashes were found. In 2012, Boris Romanchenko read Buchenwald's oath "to create a new world where peace and freedom reign" during the celebration of the anniversary of the liberation of the Buchenwald concentration camp.
Train conductor Natalia Babicheva.
For two weeks, her evacuation train rescued people from all over Ukraine. It came under fire when it was going to Lyman to pick up a group of children. Natalia died of shrapnel. She was 48 years old. Her daughter says she wants to be as brave as her mother.
This is the only way I want to see our Ukraine: prosperous, happy, proud, beloved, native, strong, united, modern, charming, independent, protected!
Thank you all, who continue to carry light, kindness and humanity in their hearts.

I want to dedicate this small drawing to all of those, who start every morning by checking if their relatives and friends are still alive and safe and if their houses are still standing.
