About

My name is Bairtai and I am an artist from Kalmykia, Europe’s only Buddhist republic.

I love illustrating children’s books and magazines, and writing my own fairy tales inspired by my culture’s myths and folklore.

My other passion is teaching children’s art classes at a local studio called “Little Leonardo”.

My work has been featured at illustration festivals in Israel, Indonesia, and Russia.

In my free time, I practice Kendo and Jodo, and run a Dojo together with my husband.
