Often, children of star families continue the work of their parents. Others choose their own path and achieve success on their own. Alexandra Leonidovna Yarmolnik is one of them.
How does the daughter of the famous actor Leonid Yarmolnik live?
The only daughter of Leonid and Oksana Yarmolnik was born on December 2, 1983. Her dad is so famous that nothing new can be said about him, her mother is also a creative person, designer, actress, theater costume designer. Oksana Pavlovna also makes collectible toys and dolls in her workshop, donated by her husband.
In the family, there was no question of raising the future actress, the girl was given the full right of her own choice. Although during her school years she studied well and even took part in amateur performances, her interests were different. Sasha got interested in drawing early.
They always listened to the daughter's opinion, did not take much care, and trusted. She spent her childhood and adolescence, basically, in a dacha village, the circle of contacts was appropriate. She never tried to stand out, to refer to the famous father. Everything happened the other way around: if someone looked at the girl from this side, she tried to dot her “I”. This is probably why Alexandra grew up independent and serious.
After school, Sasha received further education in the famous Stroganovka. Her diploma contains a specialty - an artist of decorative and applied arts, but she chose a rather exclusive specialization - a glass artist.
A young master, she created her own studio, where she is not only the leader, but also the main artist. The studio is engaged in the manufacture of unique works in a variety of techniques, the main of which is stained glass in different types of execution, maintains contacts with the masters of Venetian glass, which are located on the island of Murano. Alexandra takes an active part in Russian and international exhibitions and symposia on art glass. The studio works mainly to order.
The young artist has another passion that takes up all her free and non-free time. She took over the care of abandoned and stray animals. And this important aspect of her biography was also instilled by her family. There was no case when parents, seeing a hit dog on the road, left the dog to die. The rule was - pick up, cure and put in good hands. The “Giving Hope” fund, created together with her friends, numbers about a thousand tailed residents, sometimes, there is not enough space in the sponsored municipal shelter, you have to use private services, which costs a lot of money. Her constant duty was to find money for the maintenance and treatment of her wards.
