Tetyana Yablonska (Ukrainian: Яблонська Тетяна Нилівна,Russian:Яблонская Татьяна) (February 11, 1917 -- June 17, 2005) was a Ukrainian painter. Her early vital pictures are devoted to work and a life of Ukrainian people ("Bread", 1949). She has passed to generalizing images of the nature, differing a subtlety of plastic and color rhythms ("Anonymous heights", 1969; "Flax", 1977).
T.Yablonska was born in Smolensk, Russia(her younger sister Olena Yablonska and her  younger brother Dmytro Yablonsky are also famous painters). Grandfather Tatiana Nilivni on line materiniy George Vargas worked as inspector of national schools of Smolensk and Tver provinces. And his grandfather on his father's line came from Grand Duchy of Lithuania. So the Yablonskys   had to run from the native Smolensk where none of them knew because Smolensk  was in a terror country of "bolshevics". Fathers carried children  to Ukraine.She studied at the Kiev State Institute of Art (1941), the studio of Fedir Krychevsky. She worked very productively until the very end of her life, reportedly painting her last pastel etude on the very day of her death.

In 1970 the publisher "Art" prepared to press their album of reproductions of works by Tatiana Yablonska. The works of Tetiana Yablonska were somewhere between naive paintings and photographs  hanging in every old peasant most honored place next to the icons but in USSR the religious theme was a forbidden act. Pictures she wrote in Zvenigorodskyi district Cherkasy region in the years 1965-1966, when  she returned, "another man" from a long trip in Transcarpathia. But entire edition was destroyed Miraculously could pull out four copies.

Галина Мирослава "Але нас нема"

Але нас нема

Птахи птахами, 
Але нас нема. 
І світ мертвіє. 
І хоронить тиша. 
І ніч полущена 
Видовжується так, 
Що порохнявіє безглузда форма. 
Диха 
Лише крізь душу 
Світ 
Розприсканих вогнів, 
Лише крізь душу пукне 
Перша гілка. 
Очима розпашілими світил 
Крізь душу гра 
На видиху 
Сопілка.
