Main exhibit: how a Russian woman transferred Van Gogh to the porches and clothes
A resident of Murmansk, Maria Vazhinskaya, decided to take something on maternity leave and remembered a childhood hobby - drawing. Now Mary has become famous throughout the world as a man who with incredible accuracy reproduces the paintings of Van Gogh on clothes.
And even the woman turned the walls of her native Murmansk entrance into an art gallery, which the neighbors are incredibly happy about.
In childhood, the girl dreamed of becoming a designer, drew a lot, dreamed of how she would create clothes for high-fashion catwalks, but her dreams remained unfulfilled. Parents insisted that the girl went to study at an economist.
Maria went to work as hard labor - she did not like being an accountant at allbut you have to live somehow. And only with the departure on maternity leave she got the opportunity to change everything in her life.
First, there was an irresistible desire to paint a unique T-shirt for a little son to have some kind of abstraction on it. Chose Van Gogh and start. Then she painted shoes and clothes for herself and her friends, gradually orders literally fell on Maria - many wanted the exact same things.
When maternity leave came to an end, it became clear that you need to make a choice, and Maria decided to leave the boring office and devote herself to her beloved business. The education of an economist came in handy - Maria founded her own creative studio. A friend helps her.
Among all orders, orders for painting clothes are leading. Everyone wants more bright colors, especially in the summer. And so the northerners carry their shorts, sundresses, blouses and T-shirts. Each drawing is done strictly by hand. After the work is ready, you can erase it, but carefully.
Acrylics, if you take things carefully, hold for a long time and do not fade over time.
Maria notes that recently men have also become interested in painting clothes. True, Van Gogh is of little interest to them.More are asked to draw a tiger on a jacket, a husky or a rich catch, in extreme cases - a Chinese dragon.
Shoe painting solves two problems - a person receives a beautiful exclusive pair, and also gives a second life to an old pair of light-colored fabric shoes or even leather shoes.
Today, Maria’s son is already five years old, and the boy began to be interested in the work of his mother, trying to help her.
Maria believes that the time of consumer goods has passed, and now wardrobe items should not only be comfortable, but also open the inner world of the one who wears them. She plans to register own brand.
