The story of how a woman found himself in what he loved.

Until the age of 25, Katya worked in an office in advertising. She was a creative person, looking for herself, but very tired of work and adult life. At some point, Katya confidently decided to be an artist. She wanted to leave a “footprint in life” that would live on after her. To live by her nature, without a rationed schedule. To see the world, to experience different cultures.

It was very scary to leave the office, because I was used to working and supporting myself. I perceived that I was going nowhere.

Life changed 180 degrees after she was fired. Katya plunged into her dream, everything began to take shape on its own. Now she is doing what she loves. The whole universe helps her.

Katya explores and learns about herself in different ways. It is important for Katya to help and benefit people.

Each picture is filled with light and deep meaning. There is so much negativity in the world, something bad that brings imbalance to the senses. The main task for Katya is to give joy. To fill a person with positive emotions and to make it easier to live.

All of life is about getting to know yourself. It’s important to truly embrace and know yourself in your craft. Doing it all for positive purposes with a concern for where you live.
