About me
In my childhood and youth, I attended an art school but later pursued a completely different field of study. My two degrees from university are in psychology and ecology. But I’ve always been drawn to drawing, and I took up pencils quite a bit.
When a person is in harmony with themselves, they begin to hear the voice of their soul. Realizing this, I have undergone a powerful transformation in recent years, making a breakthrough in my spiritual development and unlocking my inner creative potential. As a result, I was able to find my purpose in this world!
At the beginning of 2024, something incredible happened to me — I immersed myself in painting with great passion. I enthusiastically created numerous oil paintings, and in a truly amazing turn of fate, I met my teacher — Michael Fuchs, a renowned Austrian artist from a distinguished artistic lineage.
Michael and I organized a joint vernissage, "Kunst Salon Wien mit Michael Fuchs & Gala Mischenko", at the Vienna Art Salon in the city center in 2024, which received extensive coverage on Austrian television and in the press.
That same year, I was fortunate enough to meet my teacher, Michael Fuchs, a renowned Austrian artist from a family of artists, which was another significant occasion.
I also participate in charitable initiatives with great joy. As a result, I was invited to join one of Austria's largest charity projects, Licht ins Dunkel. At this event, among artworks by well-known Austrian artists, my painting In the Mountains was sold at auction, with all proceeds donated to the Licht ins Dunkel charity fund.
Michael’s mother, a graphic artist, served as his first instructor, helping him to produce his first paintings in 1964. He also had instruction from his well-known father, Ernst Fuchs, the creator of the School of Fantastic Realism, who knew Salvador Dalí directly. Afterwards, he received his academic artist degree from Vienna’s Academy of Applied Arts and Academy of Fine Arts. He earned a master’s degree in architecture from the Academy of Fine Arts, where he also studied architecture. The course of his education continued for almost 20 years.
This significant and fateful event completely changed my life. I am proud to have the opportunity to learn from such an incredible person and great artist. Michael taught me the oil painting techniques of the Old Masters from the Renaissance era and inspired me to fully dedicate my life to art.
Despite his busy schedule, Professor Fuchs finds time for charitable and educational work. He has personally gifted his paintings to Pope John Paul II, Pope Benedict XVI, and the State Pushkin Museum in Moscow.
In 2024 and 2025, our joint exhibitions with Michael took place at the Vienna Art Salon in the heart of Vienna. These exhibitions received wide coverage on Austrian television and in the press.
I'm thrilled to have met such wonderful people on my life path who have helped me fully unlock my creative potential. I believe we have many more intriguing international projects ahead of us. And I’m very grateful to my family for their understanding, love, and powerful support!
