Digital Portrait Artist | Realistic, Stylized & Character Illustration

I'm a digital illustrator from Ukraine with a degree in Fine Arts and over $10K in completed projects on Upwork, all with 100% client satisfaction. My core focus is digital portrait illustration — realistic, stylized, and expressive. I specialize in high-quality character art and visual storytelling. My visual language is deeply influenced by classical training in composition, lighting, anatomy, and form, which brings a grounded, painterly feel to my digital work. Over the past year, I took a break from Upwork to focus on my own creative projects, where I worked on: UI/HUD icon design and item illustrations for a survival game Character and costume concepts later used by 3D artists Environmental art in a gritty, post-apocalyptic style 🔹 Tools: Photoshop, ZBrush (basic) 🔹 Languages: English (basic), Ukrainian / Russian (fluent) 🔹 Delivery: layered PSDs, high-resolution exports, all steps of work - sketches/ideas, responsive and timely communication I’m currently open to both short-term and long-term collaborations, and always aim to deliver artwork that is visually strong, emotionally engaging, and executed with care.
