Hi and Welcome!🤗

My name is Maria! Im a resin artist, student at college and shopaholic, oops! 😏 I was born and raised in a big town in Russia – Volgograd. My dad and mom are artists, so it’s no surprise that I also decided to go to art college. Before moving to the United States, I was full time photographer! By the end of 2017, I moved to the Florida state and started living in Key West. At that point I had 0 English skills!😆👌 There I began to work in an art studio assistant, where I discovered epoxy resin. A year later, I moved to North Carolina. At first, I worked in a starting position in a restaurant chain, a year later I started to work in an elementary school cafeteria as an assistant manager, but my hobby turned into an obsession, my skill grew, so did my self-confidence. So a week before the pandemic started, I quit my job and started doing art full time. Also I like good quality clothes and shoes, and use this page to find them new loving homes! If you are also looking for unique art for yourself, or as a gift for friend, welcome to my Etsy page/Instagram (Maria Risen Art) and feel free to ask questions!
