A bit of personal history;

I was born in Russia in 1984, moved to US when I was 16 and currently live in the Capital region area of NY. I attended Maryland Institute College of Art for a year, but went back to study locally since I was much more interested in the commercial part of the art field, and finally graduated from College of Saint Rose in 2008 with a Bachelors degree in painting (they didn’t have an illustration program). So far that’s the story.

I work almost exclusively in Photoshop, the flexibility and speed it allows are great, although I enjoy working with traditional media just as much. My interest is primarily in illustration and concept design for film and entertainment industry. Feel free to contact me with any job offers or comment about the work, it’s always appreciated.
