She studied under renowned masters Hanna Holombyevska, Mykola Zabashta, and Viktor Basanets, and completed her education in the studio of Professor Volodymyr Shatalin.

Artistic Vision
In a contemporary art world often driven by fleeting trends and provocation, Nataliia Teteruk remains devoted to what is timeless. She believes that true art is built on craft, mastery, and experience, rather than on artistic fashion.
Educated within the traditions of classical painting and influenced by the great masters of Impressionism, she focuses on light, atmosphere, and emotional subtlety. Her paintings are created to invite contemplation—offering harmony, quiet beauty, and a sense of continuity.
