There is a creator’s essence within me, and I am completely captivated by it. Art is my passion and love, and I will remain its student for my entire life. My ideas have no boundaries or limits, just as there are no limits in lines, forms, or colors. I create what I want and explore the freedom of self-expression — this is my rule. It is what truly makes me happy. Love you from my art and heart.
About Artist:
Valerie Bogdanova was born on February 17 in Belarus. She began painting at the age of 19 while living in Ukraine. Despite not having formal academic training in art, Valerie has discovered her own unique voice, which deeply resonates with viewers.
Under the pseudonym “Vesna,” meaning “Spring” in Russian, she reflects a state of life’s blossoming, channeling this energy into her personality and art.
Her early creative years were spent in Minsk, Belarus, but as an avid traveler from a young age, Valerie has created artworks in Ukraine, Russia, Indonesia, and other countries.
Her pieces have been exhibited at the State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, in Seoul, and are part of private collections worldwide.
Currently residing in America, Valerie is exploring personality psychology. By connecting with people on a profound level, she creates artworks that evoke powerful emotions and give viewers goosebumps.
When you have love - you have everything you need.
To strip down and be naked isn’t about just “taking off your clothes.”
In my art, my goal is to create a real connection with the viewer—something that cuts deep and makes you feel.
Nakedness is about vulnerability, honesty, and being real. It’s not just about what’s on the outside—it’s about connecting with your heart, your soul, your body, and your mind.
Every painting I make feels like it’s meant for someone out there. Maybe they’ll look at it and think, “Why’d she even make this?” And that’s fine—because if art speaks to you, it opens you up, it strips away the surface, and it makes you feel something real.
People tell me, “You’re like a doctor. Your art heals. It quiets everything around me, and I just wanna stare at it.”
That’s what my work is about. Whether it’s “Lovers”, “She”, “Heart”, — every piece comes from this infinite space I carry inside. And it’s all about one thing: Love.
Being an artist is a wild ride. There are ups and downs, but I’ve realized this is the path of a real Creator. It’s about staying loyal to what you love, and knowing it’s not just about you—it’s about what you give to others, too.
So, I keep going—whether I’m dressed or not.
SHE / I origins
“Everything starts with you. And that is valid. You are a divine creation of God. Live. Thrive. In your essence. In your rawness. To be naked doesn’t mean to undress. To be naked means to be alive and real. That energy is the most powerful and precious. Love is stronger than fear.”
HEART / It all starts with me
“What will grow if you plant your heart in the Earth?”
