ai–painting and story by Natalia Kornienko -
aiI am the wife of Serhiy Kornienko, a junior sergeant of the 10th OGSHB Edelweiss.
aiMy beloved volunteered to defend Ukraine in 2015. Died on June 10, 2022.

We used to dream how our whole family would gather in our house on the bank of a river or a lake. But this will remain just a dream, forever.

aiHe was 47 years old.
aiWe lived together for 27 years.
aiWe have two sons, of whom he was very proud, a granddaughter whom he loved very much and called nothing but my Princess... We had many plans for life, and dreams that were not allowed to come true. My painting is about one. 
aiWe talked about how we would love a house on the bank of a river or a lake near the forest — away from the city, where there is silence and peace. We imagined how the whole family would gather there. We dreamed of babysitting our grandchildren... Dreamed of planting a garden... Now everything remains only in dreams...
