Portrait of the Soul

A unique artistic collaboration that takes you on a personal journey, transforming the process into a custom-made oil painting that captures the essence of your soul.


As your artistic guide, I, Anna Ulyashyna, am dedicated to helping you explore and celebrate your essence, to find your unique reflection...and look into it. Through 'Portrait of the Soul', you will engage in a deeply personal process, culminating in a one-of-a-kind oil painting that captures your true self.

The Journey Unfolds in 4 Personal Stages

  • Our first encounter sets the stage for your journey. We connect over a tea ceremony, crafting a personalized plan that lays the foundation for exploring and expressing the profound aspects of your personality.

  • Our one-on-one sessions are the heart of this journey. As we meet, I immerse myself in your world, attentively observing and sketching the landscapes of your inner self, resonating with your deepest thoughts and emotions.

  • As your portrait begins to take shape, we engage in a dialogue of creation. Your ongoing feedback is essential, ensuring the artwork evolves as a true reflection of your innermost self.

  • The final revelation of your portrait is a celebration of your journey. We collaborate to decide on the most fitting way to unveil your artwork, whether it be a private viewing or a public exhibition, making this milestone in your life truly memorable.

For my 50th birthday, my friends gifted me a nude portrait to, as they put it, "highlight my beauty." I immediately knew I wanted Anna Ulyashyna to accompany me through this vulnerable process and capture who I have become. Through dialogue, we clarified what I wanted the painting to show, and together we found the right pose and lighting. I was completely surprised when my friends suddenly appeared to unveil the painting with me and Anna. I was deeply moved by how Anna translated the essence of my life's journey onto the canvas. I've hung the painting proudly above my bed. "This is me."
