I’m Volga, an Illustrator, Artist, and Surface Pattern Designer

For many years I have been employed in the graphic design and related fields. But, gradually I started focusing more on the hand drawing and experimental side of my work. For now, I’m an illustrator, specializing in Editorial, Web, Advertising, and Scientific Illustration. Additionally, I work with surface designs for print-on-demand companies.

Over the past two years, I have joined social and educational projects as a designer and illustrator. This experience shows that visual art can improve people’s lives, help us think about social and environmental issues such as climate change, stigmatization in society etc.

 I can help create brand awareness via bold, striking illustrations.

Through my experience I’ve learned to develop ideas, prepare drawings for print and websites, work with raster and vector images, and adhere to the unified style of projects within the designed visual style.
