About Me

The Artist behind the “Shade of Artist”

I am Lana Vujicic, born in 1982, hailing from Zrenjanin, Serbia. Professionally, I am an IT developer with a degree in computer science from the Technical Faculty. I also completed music school in the piano class. To say that art has been a part of me my entire life would be an understatement.

When it comes to drawing and painting, I am entirely self-taught. Everything I know I have learned through countless hours of discovery, self-improvement, and practice. Drawing and painting have become my great passion.

My greatest love lies in drawing with graphite, charcoal, soft pastels, and watercolors, though I occasionally enjoy exploring other techniques such as acrylic and oil on canvas.

While I deeply love my job as a web developer, I dream of one day making drawing and painting my primary occupation. I believe the happiest person is one who loves their job as if it were a hobby. When a hobby becomes one’s livelihood, it is one of the greatest blessings a person can receive in life.

I have chosen the pseudonym “Shade of Artist” for my works because I consider my creations to be just another artistic shade contributing to the vast world of art.

I hope that my works inspire and bring joy to people around the world. This is one of my primary desires and goals. Nonetheless, every minute I spend with a pencil or brush in hand brings me indescribable happiness. I hope others will enjoy my works as well.
