ABOUT ME
My name is Maryna (read as Marina, same name).
I am living in the stunning Pacific North-West, near Seattle, surrounded by old trees and flowers.
I was born in the city and lived in the city before I moved to the US.
Here I enjoy visiting cities, but prefer to live in the countryside.
I like to visit Seattle for the art crowd and urban walking.
My beliefs:
- Colors affect people's moods subconsciously.
- Maintaining healthy happiness is very important.
- I believe in people.
My interests in life:
- Gardening: I can see as well as I see my paintings, but with plants it’s more complex.
- Home renovation: I will build, paint and find a way to make my vision become a finished project.
- Hiking: 8 miles with “moderate” elevation, my perfect hike.
- Psychology: one day I will get a second degree in this field. Maybe to prove how important colors are, who knows.
My favorite colors: First of all I like clean colors, more intense or lighter, but clean.
- Orange - all shades - overall happy color.
- Yellow - warm and intense.
- Green - almost all shades - growth color.
- Blue - closer to green shades and light blue.
- Violet - closer to blue light shades.
- Red - closer to orange light shades.
- White - I considered as a companion to colors - color of new or unknown.
- Brown - same as white, companion color for me - I like dark with a hint of violet.
