Biography

She studied at school No. 19, and began drawing in childhood. There was no School of Arts in the city, so she studied the basics of academic drawing from books. During her childhood and teenage years she was attracted by astronomy, poetry, and mountain hiking. The basketball trainer, Remzi Yusufovich Ibragimov played a large role in development of Svetlana's personality. Svetlana graduated from secondary school holding Mastery Certificate for Basketball. School records noted that she was "… Capable, talented, active. Uncontrollable by character and willful...". The development of her character was influenced by number of factors including her place of residence. "Stalin’s settlement" was populated by exiled Koreans, Germans, Crimean Tartars and other people. Settlement was near to closed city of Chkalovsk-30, now known as Buston.

In 2001 she graduated from Moscow City Pedagogic University named after M.A. Sholokhov, Arts and Graphics Department.
