creativity is a game that reveals the fan of reality in millions of meanings
I was born in 1969 in Poltava, Ukraine, and I lived most of my life in Russia, then Istanbul and Madrid now.
⠀
I studied art at the Pedagogical Institute in Russia and have been a full-time artist for over 25 years.
Since 1993, I have participated in more than 300 exhibitions in different countries, 12 of which were solo.
⠀
I illustrated two books by my favorite, Lewis Carroll for the Moscow Publishing House «Arbor» — «Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland» in 2009 and «Through the Looking-Glass, and What
Alice Found There» in 2011.
These books were reprinted several times in Russian and highly appreciated by collectors and bibliophiles from different countries.
⠀
In my 20 years of working with acrylic, I have developed several author techniques and conducted more than 500 masterclasses in different cities and countries.
⠀
Since 2018, I am an expert and producer of the international online school Rumak Art School.
