Natasha Cross grew up in the UK, and always had wanderlust. At a young age she had boldly followed her dreams, traveling and exploring in Cambodia and in Chile. Determined to do an art journey for a few months in South America, she booked a one-way ticket to Santiago, with little money and no plan she fearlessly launched into her dream. On her way Natasha stopped in Bolivia, falling in love with the natural beauty and local culture. Now, three years later she is still there, painting powerful murals, making incredible art, exhibiting, exploring and sketching. As they say - fortune favors the bold, and clearly Natasha is that.
