Artwork by Anna Ikonomova
Can start from back to beginning!
Hi!
I am an architect. After the crisis in construction business I began to think what I can do for living in the future. Then I thought what profession I can work with passion and love. So I made a decision to do illustrations and cartoons, long time ago I had that dream before graduating in architecture.
And I became a freelancer without portfolio. Everyone around told me I am crazy. After 5 months I had a portfolio from freelance competitions. And than came first win bid. I was so happy!
I studied fine art in high school for 4 years.
In the university аnd thereafter I did a lot of computer art, but not graphic art or painting only quick drawings for my own pleasure.
I feel I have to learn more to improve my drawing skills and achieve new levels in art and illustration.
Lately, I like very much works of Peter Dimond, Anton Lomaev, Leo Kaplan, Atanas Matsoureff, Svetlin Vasilev, Yasen Guzelev and others contemporary illustrators.
I believe one day soon I will draw well like them even in my own style.
I like very much principles of educating and the program of Drawing Academy. And I agree that every artist have to have a strong basic skills and develop it whit practicing and at same time have to check and refresh their skill and knowledge.
Best regards!
