Yana Shvets

Hey there!
I am Yana, a full-time traveler, and professional watercolor artist.

The whole world is my home and that's how I get inspiration for my art. I've been living in Thailand, Vietnam, Bali, Peru, Colombia, France, Spain and visited hundreds of cities around the world.

Places I visited, people I met, nature, architecture, colors & smells all influence me and find their way on paper. I paint in a realistic style but here & there I try to play with loose techniques, inks and other media.
That's why you can find such a big variety of topics in my art - from stunning landscapes to cute animals, to food, to the floral world...

Watercolor has been my passion since I was 10 years old.

Now my life is built around art:
- I create watercolor online courses on demand for different platforms.
- I am a co-founder of an online Watercolor Academy "Learn Watercolors".
- I hosted regular watercolor workshops in Chiang Mai, Thailand and in Da Nang, Vietnam. And in other cities I traveled to.
- I had the experience of launching my own business on Amazon and developing the best sketchbooks for artists.
