Mykola Koidan

Moved to Lisbon!

Following Russia's war in Ukraine, I had to leave Ukraine together with my family. Now, my wife, I, and our three boys aged 2, 5, and 6 live in Lisbon. 

Obviously, this was unplanned immigration with just a few bags, but Portugal welcomed us very well, and we are happy to stay here before we feel it's safe to get back. We are adapting to a new place, learning Portuguese, researching the taxation system, choosing schools and daycare, and so on, and so on.

My paintings were left in Kyiv, and I have friends who will help me to ship them all over the world, in case you want to buy any of them.

All my new paintings will be shipped from Lisbon, Portugal. I am also open to commissions.
