Sofia started painting in childhood. She loved to paint her friends, and movie stars. Sometimes she painted something completely unusual, for example, a series of windows of strange shapes, sizes and colors. As a teenager, painting remained a hobby, and Sofia also took up dancing and piano. But after she failed the entrance exams for a dance academy, Sofia decided to radically refocus, and was inspired to return to painting, especially given the lure of travel and meeting new people through art. Sofia is currently a portrait painter and continues to explore her other artistic interests. She loves to create collages, postcards, write songs, and dreams of running her own art academy, where everyone will be free to learn what they want.
