Nina Vakueva – Designer

Need dynamic, story-driven art to bring characters to life? I’m your artist :) 10+ yrs creating illustrations full of emotion and narrative!

Overview

My background is architecture, but my heart was always in storytelling and drawing. I love bringing characters to life, through conveying their emotions, their story, their world. For me, a good illustration always tells a story.

I’ve had the chance to work with studios like DC Comics, Marvel Comics, and Riot Games, as well as other comics, games and animation studios.

If you’re looking for expressive characters and strong visual storytelling, I’d love to collaborate.
