I am a classical musician.

​

I started to play violin when I was four years old and with six I was accepted at the National Music School "Lubomir Pipkov" in Sofia.

​

Later I chose the viola and that choice became one of my most precious moments.

​

I finished the National Music Academy in Sofia and then did my master's Degree in Graz, Austria.

​

I was a Solo viola player for the National Theater in Maribor, Slovenia and a member of the Orchestra in the Opera in Graz, Austria.

My artwork is intense, diverse and colorful.

​

It has a vivid impression and at the same time a natural balance in it.

​

I decided to advertise my ceramic works and my painting, because I felt the power and the energy which they radiate.

​

I felt the joy and the appreciation from the audience and that gave me "the moment of truth" to start improving those talents.

About Me.

I was born in Sofia.

​

Art is a priority in my family.

My mother, Violeta was the first female professional Trumpet player with a master's Degree of Arts in Bulgaria.

​

My Father was an electrician and a person with a great Sense of Humor.

​

My sister, Militsa, is a well-known actress and jazz singer.

 

I have taken the musical path. I took my first violin lessons at the age of four. Later I studied at the National Academy of Music in Sofia and I finally got my master's degree at the University of Music and Performing Arts in Graz.

 

As a violist, I have won prizes at numerous competitions.

​

My love of painting has not left me since childhood.

I had a wonderful childhood with a lot of creativity around me. 

We had an enormous amount of books and yes, we read them :)

Back in the days it was common in Bulgaria, that the people were standing in line in front of the bookstores for hours, just to buy the edition of some classic book or a new title.

​

The first interest aroused my mother, who studied painting and has collected a large library full of books and reproductions.

 

I discovered painting to express my innermost feelings in color and form. My paintings are powerful, colourful, in motion and somewhat whimsical.

​

life is so diverse and I love it when the cheerful colors tell a menacing or melancholic story.

 

For me, painting is an enchanting mixture of emotions, intuition and improvisation. This is another language that tells stories.

 

One that makes the soul shine.
