Hope Art

is a social enterprise that aims to support young people by developing their skills and self-confidence through art and creative projects.

In collaboration with the House of Hope organization, which has been actively working with youth in Liepāja for several years, we are developing support programs for those who need it most. We offer young people the opportunity to acquire practical and life-useful skills by participating in various workshops and creative activities. We not only help them develop their abilities but also provide the necessary tools – we give them a fishing rod, not a fish – equipping them with knowledge, resources, and inspiration to shape and create their own future.

We invite you to take part in this socially impactful initiative – support it through donations or by purchasing Hope Art interior paintings. Our signature style – oil paintings with sea motifs – is more than just aesthetically pleasing artwork. It is a choice with added value: each painting tells a story of hope, growth, and your contribution to the future of young people. The paintings are created at the Hope Art studio, where the core value is Art & Kindness – art and compassion. It’s a place where art is born from a kind heart, to bring light, inspire hope, and respond to people’s needs.

This project was initiated and is led by artist Tatjana Makovija, who, together with young people from House of Hope, co-creates each painting. Every artwork that finds its place in your space is a visible symbol of social responsibility – a testament to compassion, collaboration, and the will to do good through art.

We offer interior oil paintings for purchase (size 30×40 cm) featuring sea motifs, perfect for offices, living rooms, hotels, cafés, and other spaces – while also demonstrating your support for youth development. All proceeds from the sale of these artworks will be directed toward the growth of the Hope Art initiative and the support of young people. 

Your support will be directed toward the following goals:

About me

My name is Tatjana, and I am the head of the organization House of Hope. I invite you to join me on this creative journey where we create kindness, inspiration, and hope together.

The journey from Ukraine to Latvia

I was born in Ukraine, but at the age of nine, I moved to Latvia with my mother.

A dream to paint with heart

Since childhood, I dreamed of painting artworks that bring joy to people and warmth to their hearts.

Art with a mission

Today, I am fulfilling that dream by combining art with a social mission – to help, inspire, and create positive change in society.

Meet the people creating change!

We believe in small acts with great power, building an environment of hope, peace, and growth together.
