Overview
I am a digital artist and illustrator specialized in book covers design and illustrator. With over twenty years of experience in digital arts, half of them dedicated exclusively to creating illustrations and covers for the international publishing market.
I’m specializing in book covers and illustrations, though I also do an illustration for video and board games, matte painting for cinema etc. Major clients include a HarperCollins Children Books and McGraw-Hill Ryerson.
When I work on a specific project the idea of future illustration is very important to me. When I think of the idea, more often I can already see how it will look. So, when it comes to the idea to implement, I know what I need for this project. I can say that I’m not working too long on changes, trying to achieve what I saw in my imagination. Priority areas of work: surrealism, emotions, dark art. I will try to make your project memorable, bright, original.

After a recent positive engagement with Maxim, I asked him to produce FIVE! illustrations, which he did with excellent quality and speed. I like his imagination, very much fitting the atmosphere I was looking for. I will surely come back for more!
