About me

Kseniya Lvova | Russia, Moscow
illustrations, design, visual effects

The themes I prefer in my art are surrealistic contrasts and metamorphoses, and unity of opposites. I create illustrations both to order and devoted to my own worlds. I also develop interactive projects (websites, multi-touch apps, etc.) together with a programmer Sergey Chekanov (www.darkclients.com). Since childhood I have participated in art exhibitions and contests, studied painting at Moscow State University of Service (the Faculty of Design and Applied Arts, Specialty Miniature Painting). When a student, I took interest in digital art, as I realized that only computer graphics would allow me implement my ideas. Today I work with 2D and 3D technologies and animation and always strive to improve my skills. Yet the three-layer oil painting technique I’ve mastered still helps me to create digital pictures.

I’m a member of the Creative Designers Union and the international art collective SlashTHREE.
