“Like most children, I used to love drawing, painting and modelling and like most children I grew out of the habit. When my son introduced me to Instagram three years ago, I thought it was an editing app, but I posted a few pictures and slowly started to develop my own style. I create water art and use food and everyday objects for fun compositions. Lately, I started painting fun animals and objects on my body. I like to keep the images simple, usually with plain backgrounds and only natural light. I don’t take what I am doing too seriously, to me it’s about having fun and entertaining myself and other people,” Dollmenna wrote on Bored Panda.
