Sometimes the best gift is attention to yourself and to those who are close.
Anastasia History & Studio
Ten Years in "Invisible" Places
For more than a decade, she worked in places people rarely notice: in children's books, on the screens of favorite apps, in advertising campaigns, across the pages of fashion magazines. Her line remained recognizable regardless of context - the same pen, the same language. This diversity was intentional.
"I'm With You" and Barcelona
She created a long-lived personal project — a metaphorical deck of cards called "I'm With You" - a tool for emotional awareness and support, a way to have those warm conversations that bring people closer. She moved to Barcelona and began illustrating for THE BARCELONIAN — a literary journal that pairs short stories in Catalan and Spanish with a single illustrated cover.
Expanding the Voice
She creates mandalas, planners (a small line for Amazon), pop-art posters. Her range includes free downloadable coloring pages, custom portraits ("Portrait of You in Your Favorite City"), authored books, stock illustrations (Shutterstock). She works with children's publishers, fashion magazines, advertising agencies — while keeping her own voice intact.
Handmade
Every illustration, card deck, and poster is created by hand by Anastasia using digital and print tools
Small Batch
She manages her own shop (druzha.myshopify.com) and distributes work through her personal website (nastia.cat).
Artist-Owned
Card decks, planners, and prints are made in limited runs, preserving exclusivity.
