Nesheva's transition from being an unknown painter to becoming a prosperous artist took place in a short space of time.
In 2008, she moved to Kiev and started working on her first big art piece.
In June 2010, Nesheva participated in Kyiv Art Week, an international art week of contemporary art fair, where she was noticed by various critics and curators.

Her breakthrough as an artist, Nesheva made in 2010, when her painting "Blue Blood" took the first place and traveled to Berlin Art Week.
In particular Leonora Yanko, a Ukrainian gallerist, was impressed by her work and invited Nesheva to have her first solo exhibition, that opened on May 2011 at Hudgraf Art Gallery, Kiev.

In 2011, Nesheva presented her work in Petersburg Art Week, Russia.
In June 2011, she made a Studio space in her Kiev apartment, where she commenced a series of paintings for her upcoming personal exhibition.
The first retrospective to be held of her work was the "NoConcept" exhibition at Mystetskyi Prostir 365 Gallery, Kiev, in 2011.
On 7 December 11, two paintings "Chichkan's Skull" and "Eyes" from "NoConcept" collection were sold on the auction for the private collections of Vasily Bondarchuk and Alena Vinnitskaya where Vladimir Dantes was the auctionist.
Traditionally, the interpretation of Nesheva's works at the visual level comes from the subdued emotional tone of what they represent compared to what is actually depicted.
For example, as stated by Art Ukraine, "In Contemporary art, which is so closely relying on text and ideas, the lack of concept is perceived as concept.
That is why the title of Nesheva's project, "NoConcept", may seem as just another non-conformist game, "rebellious art".
But at this show, unlike with most Contemporary art, you won't find anything that speaks of protest, or urges one to do something.
Most of the works, presented at the show, are portraits.
That is – representations of people's faces, something that in art-history is usually (and sometimes mistakenly) named "portrait".
But these are not portraits of real people and not even collective images.
Done in photorealist way but still not completely following the conventions of the technique, her characters do not lack realness.
These ‘molds’ of reality seem very much like hand of prehistorical men in caves – they exist no matter who and why there were made."

In 2012, Nesheva took part in Festival of Contemporary arts "Art Olimp", Kiev, and in the "First Odessa International Festival of the Arts", Odessa.
On 14 March 2012, Nesheva's painting "Blue Dog" was presented as a lot at the charity fundraising event "Share the warmth of the soul with a four-legged friend" to raise money for the charitable foundation "Sirius", the animal shelter.

On 22 November 2012, Nesheva had her second exhibition "DRAMA" at Mystetskyi Prostir 365 Gallery, Kiev.
Nesheva said about her work: "Souls lost in love, in prostration.
Weightlessness.
Passion.
Grace.
With / without faces, without masks, without borders ... “DRAMA” is a series of paintings depicting semi-naked female bodies.
But this is by no means blatant vulgarity and not even eroticism – it's just a woman.
Alive woman, packed in silence.
Each of these bodies cary an emotion that seeks attention and comfort, which is not able to break free.
These paintings are silent, but silent loudly."
On December 2012, Nesheva's paintings "Woman" and "No Thoughts" were published in the "City" magazine.


In 2013, Nesheva participated in Modern Art Festival, Kiev.
In 2013, Nesheva had "Retrospective" exhibition at Mainstream Girls Gallery, Kiev.
This exhibition lionized the artist, brought into full public view the scope of her old and unseen artistry, and became a turning point, which marked the beginning of a new period of the author's work.
On 29 November 2013, Nesheva was one of the painters presented in the "Hype" exhibition at Kosoy Kaponir Fortress, Kiev.

On April 2014, Greter Art Centre, Kiev, organized the exhibition "Phoenix.
Rebirth".
Nesheva was one of the four artists presented: Maria Krivopishina, Petra Rubar, a world-renowned sculptor
