Mariya is largely influenced by high fashion illustration, photography, expressionist art. When she paints in details her work usually consists of tall slender girls with crazy long hair - they are mystical and disproportional, with twisted bodies. But daily she is also inspired by the nature and the seasons' colors, books and characters, music.

Take a look at some of Mariya's illustrations.
