A course by Violetta Kurilenko
Violetta Kurilenko was born in Ufa, Russia, but has lived in Spain since the age of 16. As a child, she took a keen interest whenever her mother painted her nails, and always loved illustration as well as other art forms. Shortly after starting university, she realized that her real passion lay in nail art, so she left her course and began to advertise her work as a nail artist. Eventually, she was offered a study spot at a salon when she learned the techniques necessary to really bring her artistic vision to life.
Her style is both expressive and experimental, and is a reflection of her inner world and what she loves most in its purest form. Through her brand Yeswhat Nails, she has had the opportunity to work with big names such as Pull&Bear, Mavala, and CND.
