She often participates in Russian and international exhibitions. -“ I found my key to happiness, i.e. harmony, piece, and love. I believe that my experience can help other people feel happy. It's all about my love and passion, sunshine on my canvases, soft pastel in my hands and making other people a bit happier. That’s the message hidden in my paintings. And that’s really important for me. I explored different types of drawing and painting materials, before I realized that soft pastel is my best medium. It helps me to create the tiniest lights and shadows, and makes paintings airy and light. Besides, I am a very tactile person, and I create all my art works with my fingers, putting light strokes with chalk pastels.” She used to hear from the audience, that her art works are true, warm and sincere. It means that her key task is solved. Her mission is to bring love and harmony through her paintings whenever their new home is at one’s private place or a hotel, in a restaurant, or an exhibition hall.
