- Hope, tell us about his upbringing as a designer.

I began painting in childhood, but drew mostly horses. So, in that they tried to put me, my parents never inspired me much enthusiasm. So I started sketching clothes, trying unsuccessfully to combine them with the female figure. Seeing the fruits of my labors parents decided to go under tutors and prepare me for exams in Textile Academy.

- Taking care of parents to succeed?

Unfortunately, the entrance exams, I successfully failed, not because of special arrangement (I passed her on the "excellent"), but because of his dislike for the drawing. In the same eventful summer I got married and soon had her first child. Naturally, in the year I have not been received. Hard to combine study with diapers.

- This failure does not affect your willingness to engage in design?

No, I continued to work with teachers ornament, modeling and batik. Then she went to the institute, which until now and am in the intervals between the birth of children, work and family woes in the hope of when - some success in this field. Despite the fact that life, in principle, has developed (and perhaps because of this) now have a desire and the time came to realize their abilities.
