The message and the deep emotions are the basis of the aesthetic I try to practice, I would say a personal and very colorful narration :)

I think a lot before starting to draw, I dive into the memory. I try to catch my personal memories to compose the illustration, in the end, it is the only way to remain authentic.

The Russian fairy tales have formed my imagination, from there comes a strong coloristic imprint.
