Hello friends!
The artist is a catcher of dreams and dreams, which suffices for the tail ephemeral images of dreams and dreams. It is he who embodies these miracles on paper or canvas. Indeed, the artist is almost a miracle worker, because it is he who brings to the masses beauty and magic.
I want to give positive and happiness to everyone, and also to enjoy every little thing in life. I want to give magic to the color and recharge with positive energy.
I've been drawing digital pictures for a long time. If you are interested, you can watch the video process on Youtube.

My short autobiography:
I am an ordinary person who has already plunged into fine art for several years and gets a great deal of pleasure from it. I'm also an animal painter and illustrator. The first craving for creativity felt as a child, but the debut work began to appear in 6 years. At that time no one suspected that behind these drawings there was a future profession and all life.

My main occupation, drawing:
Yes, and yes again, drawing is one of the main or the main activities at the moment. I hope that inspiration will never leave me, and we will create together. By profession I am a teacher of fine arts, so even at work I am close to him, creativity. Besides the fact that I work as an illustrator-freelancer, I also teach and work in publishing.

In my works there are notes of cosmism and "mimic" cat-puppies. How do I manage to combine two very different directions. Why these topics:
In fact, the owls and the space are just two of the many in which I work. But all are connected, one way or another, with animals or a fairy-tale world. As for the cosmos, he always attracted me with his mysteriousness, than that which is not comprehensible to the infinite and cold, but at the same time beautiful. For some reason, it always seemed to me that there was something between the depths of the ocean and the deep cosmos, because they are the unknown abysses. Yes, and marine animals often seem unearthly - as if from other worlds. So the idea of
a series of works "In the abyss of space" arose - marine animals in space.
If we talk about the series with the sovushkami - this is probably the biggest series of works I have. The matter is that I very strongly love these expressive birds. And thanks to their "facial expressions" you can uncover absolutely any topic. I like that cos can be portrayed, as well as comical, cozy characters, and mysterious semi-mystical birds. Yes, and illustrations with owls, I often order, so the series is growing.

Which of the old masters is close to me in spirit:
Thank you so much. I do not want to offend anyone, but probably no one from the old masters. Most of all I'm inspired by the works of artists of the nineteenth century at the beginning of the 20th century. Namely: Edmunt Blair Leighton, Toulouse Lautrec, Adolf Mucha, Edward John, Vincent Wangog, Hans Zacka, Charles Burton Barbera and almost all the Russian masters of the time. For me personally, their work is priceless.

my inspiration:
On my opinion, inspiration is one of the main sources and curators of my canvases. It is unlikely that without inspiration you can create, because only so we (the artists) have the opportunity to catch our own "FM wave" and create a real masterpiece. Of course, emotions matter after watching other works, reading a legend or watching a movie. In general, good emotions are good.

What drawing techniques I like more, what less. What I know confidently, what I would like to learn:
Now I like digital painting and graphics (pen, pen, marker). But now I am at the stage of development and mastering of these directions. However, this is a ladder to the sky, there is no end point, I understand it, and interest guides me.

My work, the story of creation, what I wanted to convey to the audience:
My favorite, probably not yet. And I do not have much work to do either. Now, for example, I'm working on a series of illustrations for the author's calendar "Spirits" (working title). My spirits are the creators of the forces and phenomena of nature (forests, fog, moon, dreams, swamps and wind). They are powerful and wayward only in them are guessed the features of a cat. Also there is a big series with owls, fairies, sea creatures in the starry abyss, griffins and much more. In each series, I have my favorite works and those that, in my opinion, failed. But if to say in general, then in my works I consider the main task, that animals would look natural. And it's not about how realistic the image is, but how well it managed to convey the character, the mood. After all, the artist, as a storyteller tells a story and if believed in it, even if for a second, then, the fairy tale was good. Well, I also do not welcome violence - at least in my works, in the world and so much evil.

How much time do I spend in drawing:
So, as drawing is my life, I draw naturally every day and spend from a couple of hours to 6-8 hours a day. But I must say that I paint pretty quickly, so for a permanent creation, you have to have a "generator of creative ideas."

What I'm working on now. My plans:
Now I'm working on the author's calendar "Spirits" and the comic book "Catchers of dreams". But these are the major author's projects, and I'm drawing the last time the fan-art for the film "Strangers". In addition, there are works in animalistic themes, I want to end the series with griffins without limit.

My exhibitions:
Yes, I participated in many exhibitions, including international ones. It was not without personal, but now they are not very interesting for me, therefore, I have not exhibited this couple of years. The last exhibition, in which I took part - "Entrance" in the gallery "Arthol" city of Khabarovsk.
My tools:
I'm using the Paint Tool SAI. Wacom Intuos Pen Small tablet.The graphic tablet is on the working computer desk. It only needs to connect and open the program. I must say that I always collect materials before I start drawing something. Therefore, I am often overwhelmed with photographs and other things - with visual images and maps.
My work place:
My dreams:
I do not even know if I honestly do not have any, such global goals and tasks. I just like to draw, to embody some of my ideas and show them to people. I'm also happy that my works are in demand. I have never dreamed of fame or huge fees - there is no such thing.
