Hello

My name is Katja.
I was born in Russia but currently live in UK.

I love to paint and tend to gravitate towards watercolors, but also trying everything available to me and experiment a lot. I have not had any academic training – so I am still trying to find my way, learn new techniques and which materials I want to stick to.

I try not to take anything for granted,
I like to doubt and question the “obvious”
because when questioned, often it is not “the obvious” anymore

I am a big fan of logic, but sometimes choose to be irrational
When it’s not stupid
I like testing waters on the other side, but always too scared to dive in

I am here to share, discover and be inspired,
I’m glad if I’d make you smile,
But would be ectatic if I’d make you think

I have a tenderness for words. I want to know where they’ve been, where they’ve come from and what they carry under the surface.
My current favourite English word is: Whimsical

There’s nothing that drives me more crazy than someone telling me who I am

I can add personal message on the cards or your choosen phrase – it doesn’t take much time at all, so if you like an image and want to make a personilised card, poster or print – go ahead and ask!

Below is an example of personalised card.
