"My friend is a real painter, who is very famous in Kyiv."

Translation: Мій друг - справжній художник, який дуже відомий у Києві.

Shouldn't the female variant be моя подруга?

"Художник" (male noun) is a profession, so it can be used for both man and women. There is also a female variant: "художниця," which can be used only for women. It has been common to differentiate them recently.

[Timothy558007]

As I remember, the problem here was with Мій друг rather than with художник, but i can't find the question again.

[shkrjab]

Мо(ій)я по(друг)а справжн(ій)я художни(к)ця, котр(ий)а дуже відом(ий)а у Києві

[Mr.Xee]

Мій друг - справжній художник, що дуже відомий у Києві

[kozaksv]

Прийміть це!

[Chalseadagger]

It says мій друг and then художниця referring to it, that feels like mixing the genders. Is this a mistake?

[ZaZooBred]

I have a feeling that there should be something between який and дуже

[Mr.Xee]

No, it shouldn't. It would be uncommon.

[NickWysocz]

The gender mixing is still an issue with this question.

[SergiyKha]

мій друг є справжнім художником, який дуже відомий у Києві - should be accepted as a correct answer
