yanacolors

If you do not receive a swap from me, please let me know before rating!! I will always send out a swap I've signed up for. My name is Yana! I'm a 23-year-old printmaker who just applied to Osteopathic Medical School (wish me luck!) I lived in Russia for a little and then moved to Utah, US where I reside now. I live with my wonderful boyfriend and our two cats. I enjoy warmth, but adore rainy weather. Currently I spend all of my time inside, studying for the MCAT. I love to cook and like to be creative with dishes and plating. I obsess over stationery of all kinds/themes. I love to doodle and screen print, also love watercolors and mono-screen printing (which is pretty much screenprinting with watercolors!). Currently I just use a Winsor & Newton Cotman Sketchers Pocket Box Set. I would love to get my hands on something like White night water colors or Aquarelle, but they are a bit pricey.

I don't collect postcards, the only ones I'd like are for my brother: My little brother is 12-years-old, we have a bit of a gap and it's just us. Now that I don't live with my parents I don't get to have as much influence in his life. Not so much because I don't live there, but because I'm so caught up in my own world. So I'd like to start a type of "Post Card Project" for him. Send us a post card from your state/country with a little saying, quote or anything that's been valuable in your life. I'm young myself and am sure I could learn from it :). I want to make him a little post card booklet. Just a photo album with post cards and sayings that he can have to look at when he needs a little pick me up. To show him all the places that the world has to offer so that he never feels like he's stuck or unable to move on. The PO Box is in my name, but if you were to put "Yana and Andrew" on there, it would mean a lot :D. For my PO Box, please visit my LETTER BLOG (link up top)
