Lesia is an artist from Odesa, Ukraine. She started drawing 8 years ago after a bad leg injury put her previous career on hold. After leaving Odesa in April 2022, Lesia continues to paint and visualize Ukraine and the invasion. “Drawing for me is a hobby, a job, and a way to reflect. Every time another terrible event happens, I think to myself — again? How can this get any worse? And then I sit down and draw and cry... This is my way of surviving this grief because no one can be aloof. I believe in our Armed Forces, and our victory!”
