Blog 15 - August 2022

Countdown begins…

In less than a week school starts. I know exactly what it means to you, parents, and to you, students.

I am both: a parent and a student. I had an active summer with my 4 year old boy, who starts school next week and I have more than one reason to look forward to September, not just because of Leon starting school, but my university days are closer too!

University of Suffolk team have been in touch throughout the summer with gifts, tips and guidance so I feel more ready to start as a mature student. 

I also got help from a personal trainer Michael Owen Fitness, Suffolk, who in 30 days helped me to get my body strength back, Annette the hairstylist from Ipswich gave me a new exciting hairstyle (she is also a talented singer and performing artist) and my brother Vladimir gave me some time while babysitting so I kept my sanity.

I am ready, physically and mentally, to start a new venture! 

This blog post is a gratitude for all of you around me, my husband Nik, family and friends, new and old ones, face to face and online, for continued support.

Because of you it is easier for me to thrive as an artist! I have just received a photo of one of my paintings being loved next to Paul Evans art in a beautiful barn in Suffolk, thanks to Sherie for these shots. I also just got another commission for sculpture allowing me to create something meaningful and spiritual.

Onwards and upwards!
