Fine Artist | Author | Educator | Founder of Victoria’s Fine Art
Victoria Derin Isikman is a Chicago-area oil painter, author, and creative educator whose work celebrates transformation, emotion, and the beauty of human connection. Known for her expressive oil series such as Sunflowers – Golden Petal, Whisper of the White Lilies, and Blue Waves, her paintings blend color, rhythm, and symbolism to explore inner light and resilience — themes that also echo through her books, Phoenix in Me and Whispers of the Heart.
As the founder of Victoria’s Fine Art and Creative Flow Experience, she leads art-based workshops that help individuals and corporate teams reconnect through creativity, mindfulness, and shared expression. Her approach — a fusion of artistic mastery and emotional healing — transforms the act of painting into a journey of self-discovery.
Her work has been featured in numerous exhibitions and collected both locally and internationally. Beginning January 2026, Victoria will join the Naperville Art League as a teaching artist, offering classes in expressive oil painting and creative flow.
