I have studied Classical violin since I was 6 years old, I hold degrees in Philosophy as well as music and currently make my living as a writer. I love French literature and have spent the last 4 years reading Proust with a group of close friends. My parents were both fine artists, trained as painters. I grew up in their studio surrounded by illustrators, writers, sculptors and designers. It is one of the greatest joys in life to be surrounded by thinkers, visionaries and imaginative people. I love that Novica brings together this type of community on a global, interactive scale. I enjoy sharing the beauty others artists create in countries and cultures different from my own.
