Nastiya G's paintings have been exhibited in galleries and art shows nationally and internationally and has brought both a wonderfully fun parody along with serious perspective of Anime, Harry Potter, villains and much more to the art community. She has also worked on a number of public art installations in various locations throughout the United States.

However, due to encounters of theft, attempts in converting the art via A.I. and/or unauthorized reproduction (bootlegging) of the artwork, our artists request no closeup photography of the art itself please. Out of respect for the artists, this rule is strictly enforced.
