Among your works, which is your favorite? Why?

Thank you so much for this question. It helped me to realize something really important. I
usually ask people to choose because it is hard to be objective in this. Well same for the whole life. Anyway, maybe this one?

– because it looks like an art but not like an illustration for me. This is a personal project. I don’t know why I never tried to repeat this in other works. Maybe I should continue this way? It looks more alive and unique than other my works as I feel. (if you need, I have it in bigger resolution).

What music do you listen to for inspiration?

Last few years I use music only for some reasons. I prefer not to use it if I sit in a quiet place and nothings bothers me. Better to listen to some interesting lectures or knowledge from my yoga teacher in audio. But still if I need to shut my ears I use something positive like reggae or some nice mantra chantings or some electronics.

Most of the projects are executed clients ideas but sometimes they just say that I can draw
“something” on particular thematics. I love both ways to work. Regarding to my personal message I think it is a feeling of love and happiness in life and I’m trying 100% to put it in all my works. The way I feel I want to express and to make everyone happy. I can not draw negative. When I draw some negative emotions I feel negative too. Once I had to draw some struggle emotion and I’ve realized my face is copying that I’m drawing. And usually bad characters are also positive looking in my case. When some meat companies or smoke corporations or wine stores asking me to draw I always say no. There was a case when meat restaurant asked me to draw “something” for their advert and I draw this hunter_banner_1200px_o
And they even used it as an advert (without the words of course)!

What mistakes do you think does young graphic designers who are just starting in industry make? What advice can you give them?

Big mistake which I see everyday – they are spamming in the comments with their links asking to follow them or to check their works. This is like begin. A lot of people annoyed by this and will never open such a links. Better to write some positive comment and use attractive avatar (with your best work maybe?) for your profile. Then people will be curious and will check your profile and works. I never done such a things. I was just drawing and putting it to my blog, fb, whatever and see how many likes and comments I got. If there was many then I should will like and their friends will see. No need to ask them. I never asked for a project also. My clients are writing me by their will. Just concentrate on improving your skills and draw everyday.
