About Maryna Riepnova & Repka Arts ·

Capturing the soul of Andalusia

Fine Art & Ceramics - Málaga Studio

My work is a dialogue between the vibrant energy of the Mediterranean and the quiet magic of the natural world.

Originally from Ukraine, I fell in love with the unique light of the Costa del Sol. Today, I founded Repka Arts to translate that light into something tangible. Through original oil paintings, handmade ceramics, and immersive workshops, my mission is to bring a piece of that beauty and calm into your home.

Art rooted in passion. Crafted in Spain.

The discipline behind the art

I combine the rigor of a Fine Arts Master's degree with the vibrant light of the Mediterranean. My academic background ensures technical excellence while the landscapes of Spain provide the soul. Every piece is a balance of structure and emotion designed to bring calm to your space.
