For as long as I can remember, I had the desire to draw.

After graduating with a master's degree in Theatre Arts, I went on to set design for the Sverdlovsk Theatre of Musical Comedy in Yekaterinburg. Subsequently I became a production designer at the Sverdlovsk Committee for Television and Radio Broadcasting, creating scenography for theatrical TV shows.

I have been collecting life impressions since the '90s, and started transform them into illustrations as an opportunity arose. Life is all about being delighted and scared, sometimes amazed, feel sadness & joy. It is on par with an artist's palette in its diversity. Life provides me with an endless variety of assets, shapes, and styles. It's an inspiration so vast it will exceed a lifetime.
