“As an artist, I feel in the world around me the importance of any type of art in our time. Once upon a time, the artist's skill was associated either only with the great works of the Renaissance, or with commissioned portraits closer to our time. Nowadays contemporary art promotes various themes, which gives a sea of opportunities and ideas for the artist to illustrate them. Considering the advent of the digital format, I am very happy to see how art develops. When a child shows a desire to learn how to draw, I, as a teacher, consider it important to provide not only technical knowledge in this direction, but also the aesthetic significance of the creative path. To give an understanding of how important it is now, to see beauty in details and find your own style, as well as teach you to convey your individuality in projects. Throughout my teaching experience, I understand that every student has the potential of a future illustrator and designer. And the teacher’s task is to give him not only knowledge, but also faith in his abilities!”
