Ось і прийшов до нас новий 2026 рік. Можна сказати, дожили.
Ми не могли собі уявити те, що затримаємось на такий тривалий час на Кіпрі. Щоразу з'являється надія на повернення додому, вона як маленька іскорка спалахує в серці, але не виживає і на жаль гасне.
На цей раз ми вирішили не святкувати Новий рік із сім'єю Сільвії. Кажуть як зустрінеш Новий рік, так його і проведеш. Новий рік з 2021 на 2022, ми чомусь відзначали не вдома, а у квартирі у Сільвії в Одесі. Вони поїхали до Єгипту, а ялинка у них була більша і красивіша за нашу.
Так що з того самого моменту ми не вдома. І хоч наше справжнє житло не є нашим будинком, але за 4 роки вже прижилися в ньому.
Зустріли Новий рік під промову нашого президента.
А наступного дня вранці пішли на прогулянку і нас мало не забрало вітром. На Лімасол обрушився страшний поривчастий вітер і нас мало не прибило парканом новобудови.
Вчора я завершила роботу над другим портретом, який я маю намір представити на виставці Конкурсі портретів Лондоні, якщо ви пам'ятаєте, то першим портретом стала робота "Наша Леся", яку я вже презентувала.
Попереду ще один портрет, але нехай він буде вам сюрпризом. Коли я зроблю, що обов'язково вам покажу.

So the new year 2026 has come to us. We can say that we have survived.
We could not imagine that we would stay in Cyprus for such a long time. Every time there is hope of returning home, it flashes like a small spark in the heart, but does not survive and, unfortunately, goes out.
This time we decided not to celebrate the New Year with Sylvia's family. They say that how you meet the New Year is how you will spend it. For some reason, from 2021 to 2022, we celebrated the New Year not at home, but in Sylvia's apartment in Odessa. They went to Egypt, and their Christmas tree was bigger and more beautiful than ours.
So from that moment on, we are not at home. And although our real home is not our house, we have already settled in it for 4 years.
We celebrated the New Year with the speech of our president.
And the next morning, we went for a walk and almost got carried away by the wind. A terrible gust of wind hit Limassol, and we were almost hit by the fence of a new building.
Yesterday I finished working on the second portrait, which I intend to present at the London Portrait Competition exhibition. If you remember, the first portrait was the work "Our Lesya", which I have already presented.
There is one more portrait ahead, but let it be a surprise for you. When I do, I will definitely show you.

VERA KHOLODNAYA

VERA KHOLODNAYA I perfectly understand that my short stories are much easier to read, but sometimes it takes me more time to talk about the interesting things that happened in my life and in my gallery. So ask, I will highlight several publications for this material. This is about my author’s project dedicated to the memory of silent film actress Vera Kholodnaya. I called it - "Last Tango" It seems to me that the dignity and greatness of every nation is to preserve cultural values. At all times, rulers, politicians wrote their own history for the people. At one time, in a Soviet school, we studied Marxist-Leninist aesthetics and built communism, and today our children learn the history of Independent Ukraine. Historical facts are distorted. Only the cultural heritage, names and life stories of interesting people, people of art - artists, actors, musicians remain unforgettable. But the interpretation of their names and meanings changes in the same way as history. ...

"The Last Tango"art project by Tatyana Binovska, Maritime Art Gallery, Odessa 2001

"The Last Tango" Art Project, by Tatyana Binovska Vera Kholodnaya was a real star of silent cinema and photographs with her image came out in mass print runs. The exhibition featured more than 200 photographs. Vadim Vadimovich Kostromenko, the permanent director of the Odessa Film Studio Cinema Museum, gave us several boxes with an old film. We pulled a fishing line throughout the gallery, hung files with legends about the life and death of V.Kholodnaya on it. You know, it turned out that it is very important that our viewers are very fond of reading, and later on at the next exhibitions I used this feature. The Cinema Museum provided a camera and a projector for use at the time.  The centre of the hall, so modern and cold, we separated with a thin muslin, which became the border between the past and the present. The interior of the room was recreated, which was collected from objects of that time. Interestingly, museum items were used - a screen, a dressing table, h...
