Mademoiselle DC	Germanika
Hello Germanika !
What is your Country ?
	Germany (born in Russia) I've been living for, I think, 10 years here in Germany
Since when have you been making dolls ?
	since November 2005
How did you discover the world of the dolls and the pixel art?:
	I have found it by chance on the Internet and then also on a Russian forum from Llama and have been marvelled for the first time, because I have never belonged before it to a pixelart community. I was really fascinated by dolls and Pixelart. Because I, myself paint since my infancy, I also wanted to try in the Photoshop some experiments
What gives you the desire for creating your own dolls ?:
	I have already answered that part of the question. At first, it was a curiosity. I have had an art education in St. Petersburg, and know as difficultl it is to learn to paint correctly. And suddenly I dived in a beautiful world of pixels, I saw so many girls completely mad of what they could paint, therefore I wanted to look if I can keep up
How did your integration in the doll community went? Did you immediately went to the forums ?
	I was very long time only by Llama, but once I wanted to participate in a Contest on the site of Naî. There was a link to PixelCase, I saw there was many contests and registered so I can participate more easily everywhere if I liked. Actually, I always have too little time for forums, because I am a mum of 2 children. And, by the way, I'm a moderator on the Llama forum. I am totally enthusiastic of the world of the pixel artists - they are very dear all, and I had no negative experiences - neither in Russian circles, nor somewhere else.
Which are your idoles (in the real life and on the Web) ?:
	In the real life ... it is difficult. I idolize all famous impressionist artists , but I do not have correct idols. Although ... I believe - my mother, I have learned much from her - in an artistic way and all other aspects. Pixel artists weave in. I admire many of them. Many of them - because they paint very beautifully, but also there are so much young girls who cannot paint perhaps (not yet) so well which I simply admire for the fact that they invest their time in pixel and because they can paint at the teenager's age already better than many adult artists.
Which dollers do you admire ?:
	Now I dare give a pair of names:Russians - Llama, illusion, Riense, Dragonfly (on EE she's Nick - Windwalker); from french and other - Naî, Aster, SoCalled, Nancy, Tinuviel, TinkerBell, Tee, Megan... These are so many, actually, I would have to work a pair of hours on the list. On the whole, the site insidefairytal from Tee impressed me.
The dolls are for you: a simple leisure or a true passion ?:
	Oh they are a passion without doubt and I must say that I prefer Pixel art pictures more than simply dolls. In the meantime I paint now and again on order. I love it.
Finally, could you choose 3 favorites dolls among your work ? Thank you so much Germanika !!  See you soon ;p
