About artist

I'M MARY PAVLOVA

I’m a calligraphy and lettering artist, a bit obsessed with hidden meanings, and totally in love with visual storytelling. I turn words into art, letters into emotion, and spaces into stories—blending bold strokes with delicate details.

I believe art should make you feel—and sometimes, that means simply reminding you to stop, breathe, and notice.

My passion? Helping people surround themselves with art that feels personal, meaningful, and beautifully imperfect.
