About & CV
I was born in Mikolaev, Ukraine in 1984.
Now I am leaving and working in Haifa, Israel.
I am a painter, illustrator and graphic designer. I teach drawing and painting and mainly deal with drawing and illustration from observation and figurative drawing.
I was educated in drawing, painting and etching, and have gained exquisite tools for observation. These have taught me to look at reality from a unique point of view, and have enabled me to apply classical knowledge to my contemporary practice as an artist and graphic designer.
