Before I started to make photos myself I had a lot to do. First I had to learn to draw, then I needed to master body painting, participate in championships, and work with  professional photographers in studio. Only then did I understand that interesting and high-quality work needs to be photographed properly, and who can do that better than the artist himself? The other thing is, if you’re not able to keep your makeup work, then what is the sense of creating it?

I have been doing my own photography for about a year. I’ve never studied it or read any special literature, everything that I've done is a result of constant practice. I've been body painting for almost three years and drawing for four. I didn’t make attempts to draw at all before, and tried to photograph only in my early childhood.
