Everyone dreamed of getting into Mary's lens to get an artwork with them in the lead role. Maria couldn't travel as much as she wanted, so she got into travel through her works. The theme of the works is dreams of travel and endless happiness. The works reflect the main message of everything that Maria does - the main thing in life - to be able to relate easily to everything. In Maria's works, the flowers are brighter, life is easier than it really is. Retro style works create an atmosphere of fairy tale and surrealism.
