"Women's nature - is thrust into action,

 development of harmony with the environment,

the ability to live by soul in love, giving love "

 "Live picture that fills the beautiful colors of everyday life" - so you can describe in words one of the oldest on earth handcraft and modern hobby for Ukrainian women– embroidery with ribbons.

For more than six months successfully mastering this type of needlework art Victoria V. Molyarenko – mother of the patient of regional center for social rehabilitation of disabled children "Revival". Recently opened the first exhibition of her works. Eleven pictures were presented in the exhibition hall of the library in the Chernihiv City School of Arts and were highly appreciated by the visitors.

Victoria was born and raised in Chernihiv. She graduated from school №5, and gradusted from Chernihiv branch of Kherson Technological University. Then worked in the prison system. Currently, she is unable to work because all her time giving to her son Bohdan, who is suffering from cerebral palsy. For over 4 years, Victoria and her son actively undergoing rehabilitation at the regional center.

Psychologists say that creativity is an integral part of the harmonious development of personality. Sooner or later everyone finds themselves in some talent. Develop them or not - individual desire. A mother of a sick child is not fixating on the problems and very well finds something to do that is fun and provides an opportunity to realize their potential.

The history of the creative way of Victoria started unexpectedly. Future masters’ attention drew a bag, embroidered with ribbons, which demonstrated to her the neurologist of the Center during the inspection of Bogdan. Beauty, elegance, which was provided the accessory with floral ribbons, struck Victoria, who since childhood showed a creative person – being always engaged in drawing, knitting, embroidery and sewing. Immediately came back the old enthusiasm, and she decided to create something similar for herself. And women's nature suggested her direction for the development of energy and harmony. Could not resist and told the teacher about her thoughts on clay - therapy Sergiyko Lyudmila Ivanivna, who already had inspired several mothers at the Center. Ludmila at her studies actively encourages mothers of special children not to limit their lives only by parental cares and actively look for themselves, do not be afraid to exercise and demonstrate their talents and skills.

Full of vitality and the creative impulse Victoria independently mastered the technique of embroidery by ribbons - reviewed the workshops online. Initially tested different types of stitches, studied to perform some floral elements. Liked to embroider daisies - these delicate flowers, filled with summer heat. They best match, mental and emotional mood masters the initial creative development. Shyness and no confidence in her talent prevented Victoria from widely presentation of her first works. During classes of clay therapy she timidly showed the photos to Ludmila on the phone and got the first approval. Gently and neatly woven tapes, wonderful selection of colors, personal style - all typical of Victoria.

Gradually I realized that people like my works, they attract attention with their elegance and beauty. Then there was a desire to create flower arrangements and place them in the picture. This is very troublesome and lengthy process: first, the picture emerging on paper, then ready-designed work transferred to the fabric. Captures a good combination of different colors and shades - band for each work carefully matches colors in the picture to look most natural. Besides, manual work takes time and perseverance. In fact - a creative meditation when dissolved completely during needlework, again we become ourselves, we return to national roots, showing individuality and talents bestowed upon us by God.

Pictures of Victoria - a kind of floral history, in which there is the beauty of the soul, kindness, gentle feeling. Looking through them, involuntarily transported blooming of the summer season and it seems that even minute, and feel their gentle heady aroma. Flowers - the finest of all, that God created for others to enjoy. They bloom wildly in the paintings of the young master.

Now Victoria confidently and actively working on new works, attending workshops and master new techniques create three-dimensional pictures of the tapes. She found a new source of energy, joy and beauty through creating and realizing the talent.
