My name is Yana Khachikyan, I create miniature oil paintings on stones. Most of my miniature paintings involve animals and especially I love painting tiny birds which are all cute and colorful. Some of my birds are of the size of a pea, and this makes them even more attractive. Such detailed paintings always attract people and the size of my creatures makes them unique artworks.

I am using brushes of different shapes and sizes, but the main tool is a palette knife - it is helpful not only for mixing paints but also for creating all these details in my miniature worlds.

I love my stone artworks to be beautifully packed, so I am making cute gift boxes for each of my paintings. These boxes fit perfectly by size and color.

I love turning cold stones into works of art - something bright and beautiful!
