Affiliations
I'm a Graphic Designer with over 12 years of experience in photoshop and illustration. At university I discovered different types of amazing arts. Graphic art is the main part of my life. After graduation I started working in the recording and design studio "Patriot" as an advertising designer. I created such things as banners, flyers, posters and calendars. I also did photo retouching. I took part in the development and support of a browser game for about 5 years. It gave me unforgettable and interesting experience in creating game characters and various quests for players. It was very exciting. In addition to design, I am interested in tapestry and restoration of antique dolls.
I am a supporter of a healthy lifestyle. I enjoy running to keep my body in good physical shape.
