My experience in Fine Art began early and throughout my development I was influenced by the history 

and traditions of Russian culture. 

 

When I first started reading, I immediately created images in my head and knew that I wanted to illustrate,

to recreate the world that I found within. I explored Graphic Design, Fine Art and Show and Costume

Design in my professional career, illustrating ideas and concepts. My art evolved from creating magic

to finding magic in simple shapes and forms that mostly are elements of nature. 

 

Just like in Russian Folk Tales, nature born magical creatures and powers reveal themselves to

people believing in it, my art is open to imagination and interpretation.

 

The magic is in the eye of the beholder.
