The Story Behind the Brush
Rooted in childhood, Maria’s artistic journey began in Russia, where she first picked up a brush at the age of four. By six, she earned her first major recognition — winning a national children’s art competition.
After more than a decade of classical training at a Fine Arts School, she graduated with honors in Fashion Design from Vladivostok State University. During her studies, Maria received international acclaim, winning over fifteen art and fashion competitions across the United States, China, Japan, Belgium and Russia.
