A famous artist Svetlana Juravleva taught at Maia’s school. In the first few weeks of art lessons Juravleva was very impressed with Maia’s talent. Her passion for art and desire to pursue her teacher’s knowledge brought them very close. Vasilieva spent most of her time at teacher’s workshop sketching and painting.

Each time after the unforgettable experience the passion toward art came back.?In 1994 she moved to Miami and began painting once again. Maia knew that ‘one day’ is here. The first step was difficult after all those years. It was hard to know where to begin because there are so many different and valid ways to start.

? “I always want to pass reality to my painting to reflect a certain moment of life and time. I pay extra attention to details,shapes,volume and color to pursue the harmony and connection. To create has never been difficult task for me in fact it is my way to express something natural, free like breath it self and the same time it is something pleasant and full of enjoyment.
