Hello everyone,
Welcome to my website! My name is Dovile Vilunaite, but everyone calling me Dove :) I am an artist from Lithuania and I am living in United Kingdom for 11 years now. I was dreaming to be an artist since I was a child, always used to draw. Now the boring part, here it comes :D When I was a teenager I was going to the Art school in Lithuania . You know when someone ask you : who you want to be when you will grow up ? I always knew that I want to be an artist, just was trying to find myself. I moved to United Kingdom when I was 21 years old. And I have stayed since :) So 2016 I have joined Wolverhampton University to study BA(hons) Fashion and textiles, sadly that year happened Brexit and government didn’t gave me the student loan because they have changed the circumstances. So I had to drop-off and left with a debt. Now ask me one question ? What I have done after ? I didn’t gave up, I was working hard in different jobs but it always have been a job which just pays my bills. So I was thinking …Well there is so many people which do something what they love, I want it too! Do something what I love and what brings me so much joy! So third time is a charm, it is what people say ;) So 2023 in December 1st I have joined Mastery program in Milan Art Institute, studying online, founder is Ellie Milan and it is based in California USA. I am still working full-time , to pay my bills and for my studies. So I don’t have so much time to do all the work , I wish I could do the painting 40 hours a week and quit my job. My dream is to become full-time professional artist and I really hope to fulfil this dream. Maybe some people thinks art is boring or how you can make a living from it , but it is my dream and it really means me a lot. I guess if you reading this , you have some hobby or passion for something, so I feel the same about painting :) I know this journey will be challenging ,I will be making mistakes, I will have ups and downs but I want to see where it will take me :) And I really hope there will be other artists, friends and family to go in this journey with me! To share opinions , experience and thoughts with me! Let’s see what is coming! From the bottom of my heart I wish you all to make your dreams come through, to stay happy , we are living only once so we need to make the most out of it. When you will get old that you won’t regret NOT doing something. All you can do is TRY !I am really new on creating website but I hope I will make a nice place to all of us to enjoy art. I am planning to build online shop and maybe some clothing or something to purchase. I will figure it out on the way . Maybe I will get more courage and I will upload some videos for you to watch :)
Sending hugs xoxo
