MY STORY

I got a passion for art from the moment I was born. Playing in my mum’s studio with fresh wet clay, watching father working at his monumental granite sculptures admiring the size of the stones, sneaking into the studio and listening to discussions about art my parents were having with fellow artists. I had a strong and confident beginning in art. But back then my parents were struggling to make ends meet. I did not feel that as a child. I felt happy. My art was my world.

But those struggles mixed with times of a better life many years later as an adult gradually made me think that art career is impossible. For more than 20 years I worked as a curator and manager of culture events and national and international art projects. I established and lead Art and Music Centre of the National Library of Latvia.

I came back in visual arts as a full-time artist in 2016. I mastered my skills in art, worked hard to expand my creativity and developed my unique style in drawing and painting. Since 1990 I regularly participate in group and solo exhibitions nationally and internationally with drawings, prints, paintings and photographs. I develop my artistic style by taking part in international and local art residencies and group exhibitions. Had several significant solo exhibitions. 

In 1991 graduated College of Fine Arts. In 2002 graduated Latvian Academy of Culture, MA of Culture Management received also European Diploma in Cultural Projects Management. In 2013 graduated Art Academy of Latvia, MA of Fine Arts. 

Working for more than 20 years as a curator and art manager and lately as an artist has given me unique expertise and knowledge and in my masterclasses I transfer this knowledge and experience to my students. Through the online program LOVETOART I want you to have a strong beginning in art if you are a beginner and to have bold next level in your art if you are intermediate. In my masterclasses I will guide you regardless of medium you work in to create from within.

As art mentor and teacher my mission is to help you to gain confidence and become proficient in art. By participating in this program you will build strong understanding of art and your niche. You will be able to make right decisions to realize your creative ideas. You will be more confident as you will grow as an artist with your unique expression and voice in art.
