She has always wanted to retell these ancient stories for the modern world and now she does so in her paintings. She teaches traditional illustration techniques for beginners in her online classes and art classes for children. Working with kids and their imagination and creativity helped her to get back to art without fear after few years creative break. She loves to inspire people to create their own art and to show that there is nothing to be afraid of. For her illustrations, she uses mostly traditional media like watercolors or ink.
