Hello,

I’m a Russian artist – hyper realist based in Italy, acknowledged as a preeminent traditional artist, illustrator and occasional painter.
My passion for art started since the age of two. Growing up in a family full of creative minds, I quickly mastered many techniques, which now I own on a professional level.
I work using mainly black pencils on white rough watercolor paper. Drawing, and making art per se, is my full-time job which fills 12+ hours of my regular routine. Practice and continuous improvement are essential for obtain a consistent result, and I wouldn’t be where I am now if I’d chosen a different lifestyle.

I appeared throughout the world, including Landmark Arts Center in London and annual major exhibitions at the Louvre Museum in Paris.
But also, in past I used to participate to open air expositions in Piazza Primo Maggio, in Cattolica, Italy, with other painters of the Association “Art Cattolica – Gli Artisti della Regina” every Wednesday evening from June to September.
My latest experience in a digital graphic design field was with the independent Italian audiobooks label Ménéstrandise – Audiolibri Indipendenti, where as an Art Director I managed the visual aspect of many projects and of the overall graphic of the label as well.
Now all my energy is focused on personal commissions, illustrations for books and book covers.
