Natalia Makhneva, known as doohigor, comes from Kamchatka, and now lives in Barnaul, near the Altai mountains. Thanks to this geography, she has always been surrounded by the beauty of nature and was inspired by the seas and forests. Since childhood, Natalia loves myths, legends and fairy tales, she invented magical creatures and imaginary monsters, and at the age of 15 began to bring them into reality — Natalia met with polymer clay and fell in love with this material forever. Also, the skilled artist likes to work with fur, wool or plush — with something soft :)

Now the most famous work by Natalia is her monsters-spirits. Charming creatures with horns are always made with a special meaning and are dedicated to some phenomena or states, for example, the Spirit of the First Day of Spring, or the Spirit of Learning. Monsters are incredibly expressive, and I think they are real talismans, which will be able to bring their owners and fans back to the right, subtly caught feelings again and again. Let's get acquainted with the little spirits closer!
