Zhanna Biletska, an exceptional oil painter based in Chicago, has dedicated her life to translating the vibrancy and allure of the world around her onto canvas. Born and raised in Ukraine, Zhanna's artistic journey commenced early, with rigorous formal training at a local Art school. This initial exposure to the arts culminated in a Bachelor's degree in Architecture from a reputed Ukrainian university, a period of her life that solidified her commitment to creativity and design.

Zhanna's artistic prowess is a testament to not just her academic training, but also her relentless pursuit of mastering her craft. She sought out the tutelage of master painters, assimilating their techniques, and constantly improving her own. Her efforts bore fruit, with her artwork featuring in multiple exhibitions throughout Ukraine, thus cementing her place as a rising star in the art world.

A move to the United States offered Zhanna a fresh canvas. She embraced this change, exploring the diverse landscapes and bustling cityscapes of her new home. This exploration wasn't merely a physical journey, but also an artistic one. Zhanna began painting and sketching outdoors, discovering her profound love for plein air painting. The immersive experience of painting in the open air, amidst the elements, became a wellspring of inspiration for her.

Today, Zhanna is renowned for her stunning plein air compositions and bespoke custom house portraits. She brings homes to life on canvas, capturing their unique character with a masterful blend of realism, impressionism and artistic interpretation. Her work is a testament to her ability to capture both the physical structure and the spirit of a location.

Zhanna continues to be an active participant in various exhibitions and plein air competitions, her art a testament to a lifelong journey of exploration and expression. Her dedication to her craft and her love for plein air painting continues to inspire, reminding us all of the beauty that surrounds us, waiting to be captured and appreciated.

Today, Zhanna has carved out a niche for herself in the vibrant Chicago art scene, recognized for her custom plein air paintings of houses. She encapsulates the spirit of the city by transforming the architectural beauty of local residences into stunning oil on canvas. Each piece is a testament to her ability to capture not only the aesthetic charm of the homes but also the essence of their surroundings. She continues to refine her craft, participating in exhibitions and plein air competitions, her works resonating with both art enthusiasts and homeowners alike.
