My name is Anja, and I live somewhere in Michigan.

Since childhood, I discovered art in elementary school by drawing for the first time. Therefore, I became interested in art (especially drawing, painting…) by developing my creativity; I was thinking about starting to develop it as an occupation.

But unfortunately, it has never been a career – like a dream that never comes true; it has only been a hobby for school projects (from middle school up to college).

During my school years, at the beginning, it was a challenge. But it has turned into a skill, some knowledge, and my inspiration (that could continue).

In addition to this, it’s like an anti-stress that keeps me busy but helps me relax. And it can also be a therapy…

To me, art is a way of communication (without words): expressing feelings, thoughts, and telling stories while using imagination.

When I feel bored, I enjoy listening to music, especially EDM, the 80s… any kind of music that goes with my mood.
