Polina I.

Over the last 20 years I have joggled both creative photo editing and digital painting. Initially I am an experienced traditional artist and it helps me much to create high quality work digitally. I am very attentive to detail and strong at realistic painting. I will never take the job if I feel I am not able to cope with the given task. In short: I am easy to work with, take direction well and flexible in communication. Experience: - t-shirt designs / illustrations featuring funny realistic animals - official merch for metal bands - book illustrations (poetry, historical and detective novels, books for children, portraits of famous people) - movie posters - taro illustrations (full deck creation 78 cards+packaging) - hedcut /stipple illustrations (Wall Street Journal style) - interior wall art and posters. - portrait painting (realism in full color, engraved/carved style, hedcut, pen and ink etc) - wine labels (pen and ink/engraved monochrome style) - children's books - posters for horror movies and books (I like dark stuff!!) - photo editing (fashion/product retouch, creative photo manipulation etc etc.) - digital oils - AI training (makeup application on versatile face types) Strong points: - profound knowledge of perspective, color theory and anatomy. - fully texturised photorealistic painting (I can paint from zero) - I preserve the full range of colours and shades so that the artwork is fully editable after it's done. I.e. b/w conversion will never reveal overlighting and black holes nd preserve local contrast. - I fight against fuzzyness and overblurring - I have a good eye for colour and composition - light-hearted personality - I respond quickly, politely and respectfully,always warn my clients about my personal issues. - I ask MANY questions so that the artwork's done perfectly and suiting my client. Looking forward to discussing projects with you. Respectfully to all my would-be clients, Polina.
