I love experimenting with different techniques, styles and subjects. One one hand, creating art helps me to clear my head in my spare time. On the other hand it influences my work when it comes to designing life-like artificial characters.
I'm especially fascinated by creatures that don't exist in our reality - from known mythology to my own creations. A few examples of the latter are Reeya, Xu Mil Rha, and The Stranger.
Since my teenager years, I am accompanied by the world of the Kaleidoscope System that is supposed to be the setting of my own video game one day. However, at the beginning of 2023, another world stole the spotlight - the home of the aforementioned fantasy creatures and the main setting of the Kingslayer Saga.
Making animals and fantasy creatures tangible is even better than just capturing them on a sheet of paper or a computer screen. Seeing them come to life in a playful person's hands is especially rewarding.
Our world is full of creative stories, and many of those had a lasting impact on me. Besides, re-imagining something familiar now and then is a good way to practice my skills.
