About Me

I’m a Ukrainian soul currently living and studying in Belgium. Learning in a language that once felt like a code I couldn't crack has been a real journey — not always easy, but deeply rewarding. What keeps me going? My love for creativity, the thrill of turning ideas into something visual and meaningful, and a quiet promise I made to myself: no matter how tough the task, I’ll always give it my all.

3D model of a Hermès watch recreated in Autodesk Maya and textured in Substance 3D Painter

Modelisation 3d

My task was to faithfully recreate a Hermès watch using Autodesk Maya for modeling and Substance 3D Painter for texturing and rendering. For the smaller, more delicate details, I hand-painted custom masks in Procreate to add the final realistic touches.

Hand-drawn female character sketch refined in Procreate for character design project

Character design

Drawing is one of my greatest passions, so working on this character design project felt smooth and natural. It began with a traditional sketch, which I later refined and enhanced in Procreate, bringing the character fully to life.

Review Project
Colorful beer can label with fruity and playful design created in Adobe Illustrator

Product design

This was a fun and flavorful experience. I designed a beer label for a local brewery’s fruit and milk-based brew — the idea came instantly. The artwork reflects waves of taste through colorful, slightly cartoonish visuals, created entirely in Adobe Illustrator.

Review Project

2d Animation

This was a multi-stage project combining hand-drawn backgrounds, characters, and effects. The fiery tornado was created using frame-by-frame animation in Procreate, with each motion drawn individually. The full animation, including walk cycles and timing, was assembled in Adobe After Effects.

Review Project
Fantasy matte painting of a magical forest with mushroom houses and tiny creatures

Matte painting

Photoshop is a love-hate relationship — but it always leads to something beautiful. Here, my goal was to create a tiny house for even tinier inhabitants by blending various images into one unique and whimsical composition.

Vector Illustration

This illustration, made in Adobe Illustrator, is a minimalist take on the iconic Addams Family mansion. Two distinct versions — day and night — reveal subtle differences, designed to catch the eye and tell a quiet visual story.
