Hello! My name is Maria Aurora, and I have a deep love for all things creative that bring positive emotions to people. Sometimes, I find solace in immersing myself in painting, graphic arts, and stained glass work. This unique form of work allows me to delve deeply into my inner world.

I have a great passion for working with people. In these interactions, the camera becomes a tool for visualization, imagination, and connection, capturing emotions that culminate in wonderful and often touching stories from the lives of my subjects.

I enjoy crafting images for specific purposes or simply to express and reflect the spark that resides within each of us. Over the past few years, while on maternity leave, I found great joy in self-portraiture; it’s truly fascinating.

Throughout the last year, I’ve continually honed my skills. I am immensely grateful for the opportunity to refine my abilities and expand my knowledge at the Saint Petersburg Academy of Arts. I owe a great deal of gratitude to my teacher and mentor in stained glass in Tallin, and each great photographer who made me masterclass, it all like a bricks in my castle. 

As I reflect on my journey through life, I’ve encountered numerous challenges and setbacks. Yet, like a diamond, I have discovered the strength to rise each time, finding resilience in adversity. Through these experiences, I’ve honed my ability to bring forth creativity and love, even during moments of self-doubt. Much like a diamond becomes more brilliant with each polish, I too have refined myself over time. Now, I find myself in a place where I can offer the pure essence of light and creativity, borne from a heart that has found joy and inspiration. Each endeavor I undertake adds a unique brilliance to my life’s tapestry.When selecting artwork, one often finds that many pieces are born from either moments of joy or times of emotional turmoil. This distinction is crucial, for the art you bring into your home safeguards the emotions that were poured into its creation. A painting or sculpture is never a lifeless object; it embodies the hands, thoughts, and emotions of its creator.

Years ago, I poured my heart and soul into my artwork, channeling the pain and sadness I felt within. Yet today, I find my perspective has shifted, and I embrace a new outlook for the greater good of us all.In the midst of shadows, there is always a pure light that shines through. Whatever I do, I strive to infuse it with a constructive and radiant energy, focusing on the beauty and timelessness of life.From the tender age of 10, I have been captivated by the world of fine art. At the age of 22, I had the honor of winning my first competition, a moment that truly affirmed my passion. My journey with photography began at 16, though it wasn’t until I was 21 that I pursued it with earnest dedication. Now, as a woman in her forties and a mother of three wonderful children, I speak with the wisdom and experience that only time can bestow.

Thank you All

As an artist, my heart is not swayed by the allure of marketing strategies or the temptation to become someone I’m not. I am blessed with a multitude of creative talents at my fingertips, and it brings me great joy to use them for the delight and happiness of others.
