What were the things you were passionate about when you were little? Have you ever dreamed about becoming a successful singer, actress, painter, doctor, or maybe a ballerina? Some of us weren’t so blessed because we had to choose a profitable occupation.
The same happened to a 22-years-old Ulyana who was studying to become a diplomat. However, the universe had some other plans for her. Now she is a full-time artist living and working in a small town called Volgograd in Russia.
“After some time, I found myself in international relations and dreamed of becoming a diplomat, but I later realized that art is the only thing that makes me happy and satisfies my soul,” she shared on Bored Panda. “Now I’ve decided that I want to dedicate my whole life to this and become a professional artist.”
Her artistic journey began when she was only a little girl, and she’s been drawing for as long as she can remember. Her favorite things to depict are portraits of both famous and everyday people. To create her artwork, she works with watercolors and colored pencils.
“My paintings are the results of years of working on the skill of drawing. They all show people how I see them in my individual way. With my art, I want to inspire people to love themselves and their surroundings,” she added.
