The first fact about me that I think is interesting is I love to paint and draw. It\u2019s a way for me to express and release my stress or problems!<br \/>\n2. Second fact I\u2019d say is that I\u2019m Samoan! Not many people know what Samoan is, so that\u2019s a rare thing people come across, I guess.<br \/>\n3. Last but not least: I used to represent my cities in Australia and New Zealand for basketball! I love basketball and loved playing\u2026 I still kept some of my skills, so watch out; I might ankle break you. <\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What\u2019s your most prized possession and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nThis is a hard question! I can\u2019t pick, but one of my most prized possessions is my art book!! Not because it has any specific value or because my drawings are amazing, but because it\u2019s my own personal thing, a way for me to close off from the world, get lost in, and step into my mind. Whereas words don\u2019t come easy to me, a pencil and paper say what I can\u2019t say. Then, definitely my rings or necklaces, hahaha! I love my jewelry. If I don\u2019t have any on, I feel naked or weird, plus I think it shows more of who I am!<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 How did you become a model?<\/strong><br \/>\nI got into being a model thanks to the influence of my family! Growing up, my family has always been in the creative scene, from painting to fashion designing and modeling. I first started when my mum had a fashion brand, and she used me to model her designs and used my brother to photograph! From then on, I found my love and passion for modeling!<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">Elza<\/span><br \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-2 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-69602 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/03\/mdcselects_elzastupnikova03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Elza Stupnikova\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/03\/mdcselects_elzastupnikova03-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-69607\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-69607'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Elza Stupnikova\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/03\/mdcselects_elzastupnikova01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Elza Stupnikova\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/03\/mdcselects_elzastupnikova01-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-69609\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-69609'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Elza Stupnikova\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/03\/mdcselects_elzastupnikova02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Elza Stupnikova\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/03\/mdcselects_elzastupnikova02-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-2-69608\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-2-69608'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Elza Stupnikova\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nElza Stupnikova (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/may.elza\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@may.elza<\/a>) \u2014 180 cm \/ 5&#8217;11&#8221; \u2014 Russian from Saratov, Russia \u2014 born March 10th \u2014 she\/her.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\nAquarelle Models (Moscow &#8211; mother agency)<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 An issue or cause you are passionate about:<\/strong><br \/>\nPeace.

Realizing our kindness to others is also, really, kindness to ourselves has been a big and beautiful game changer for me. So I treat myself to it every day.<br \/>\n2. Tiny cafes on rainy days: finding a corner, ordering something hot in a satisfying mug (crucial), and curling up. Pen, paper, maybe a book, depending on the mood, and just staying for a long while. Very passionate about that.<br \/>\n3. Not complaining about the weather.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What are three interesting facts about you?<\/strong><br \/>\n1.
