Kristina is a fine artist, illustrator, and nature enthusiast from Estonia, currently based in Italy. Her drawings explore natural landscapes and the creatures that inhabit them, from large animals like moose to smaller ones such as bog plants. Kristina's love for birds and bogs has led her to volunteer at nature reserves across Europe, participate in bird banding, and engage in nature conservation. These experiences, combined with her background in graphic design, have had a significant influence on her work.
Kristina brings the fine details of botanical illustrations to life, capturing the mystery of foggy Estonian bog landscapes. Her drawings are informed by her own research, learning, and ongoing experiences with nature. The drawing process involves a thorough study of her subjects. Having been disconnected from nature during her childhood, she now approaches it with a childlike excitement, yet with the refined technique of an experienced artist.
