Profession: an artist who specializes in oil paintings and video worksWith her paintings Maka tells colorful short stories from

Georgia and its people and from her experiences around the world .

Maka is a genuine example of Art as a living , breathing form .....

Her paintings are figurative , gentle and soothing and within

everyone's reach..........when an artist can reach the public in

general then art itself becomes reality ..... Art only for a few

intellectuals is not so .... Big words can be used to describe her Art

........ One must see it and then an indelible image will be in the

memory forever ...... Maka's videos tells stories of Georgia and

Georgians ...... Maka has the talent to let the image flow and

therefore be truthful to the issues at hand ...... Visions of the

world from a different perspective ..... Kaheti with its people , life

as it is and its problems ...... all seen through the eyes of someone

who cares deeply about the people and transforms that experience into

an Art form . Maka is true to her Art ...... She lives it !!!

There'is nothing not to love about Maka !
