About Me

Free artist and traveler. I studied as book illustrator in Moscow, but then I suddenly found myself working as profesional circus artist. You never know plans of life on you :) So for now I still draw paintings and illustrations, but mostly I work in circus projects in unicycle genre, thanks to which I travel a lot and participate in international projects. Despite my adventurous life, I have the essence of an introvert, I love to observe life around me and look for inspiration in it, so I am a very quiet, calm person who prefers warm, heartfelt conversations to nightclubs.
