Later, her drawing time was then replaced by dancing classes. Fortunately, for the past few years she is living her dream doing what she loves the most - full time painting in Greece, a country of incredible history and the birthplace of art. Ausra's life lately is purely surrounded by nature, which is where she chose to live, which allows her endless thoughts to create the most unique and original paintings.

Each one of her paintings are created with passion and thoughtful harmony to make the exquisite scenic painting.
