If you want to support my work, here's my Ko-fi:
Contact me on social networks or via e-mail:
I should respond within 5 business days. Sometimes I'm so lost in my creative work that I forget the world around me exists. But I will respond, don't worry.My socials are quite empty for now. I need time to adjust to different types of social sites. Sadly, I'm not a "social media" type of person. I prefer to be a hermit yet I try to show my art. The internet is kinda crazy nowadays, don't you think?
About me
I am:
ArtistšØ, CreatorāØ, Fantasy Explorerš, Crafterš§µš§Beware of my unusual personalityš§
I've been drawing and creating art as long as I remember. Always believed that art and fantasy can be a beautiful way to express yourself and make the world more colorful. Yet I'm too curious so it took years of trying and exploring different things to understand that I should make art my priority. And now here I am, finally showing the world what I can. Out of curiosity I tried many different types of jobs, hobbies and gained diverse set of skills through my journey - from psychology to crafting. As a Demon Cat from Adventure Time once said "I have approximate knowledge of many things" - that applies to me too. I have a wide skill set. I can create anything I want. It just takes time and practice.What about my hobbies? I have plenty - cars (from fixing to taking photos of them), radio technology, music cassettes, vintage tech, cosplay (I just dived into it recently), painting, digital and traditional art, 3D arts, gaming (I spend too much time gaming, to be honest) and many more.
Education and prior experience
Education
- In 2023, I got Bachelor's degree in Health/Medical Psychology (Lithuanian University of Health Sciences). Health Psychology studies gave a vast knowledge and experience of people's behaviour, social interactions, people's needs and many more. Different topics, including human anatomy, physiology, philosophy, sociology, group psychology, psychotherapy and many more, gave diverse understanding of human beings and whole society.8/10, loved it, yet I had many emotional breakdowns.- In 2024, finished a course in Kaunas Information Technology School and got Vocational diploma of Digital Communication and Media/Multimedia. Had an oppurtunity to learn many different types of media:
3D Modeling and animation (Blender), work with Adobe products, tried Reaper for music production, mastering and sound design (this one slaps. Loved it), photography, character designs, composition, backgrounds, graphic design, logo design. Overall, it gave me a lot. Like, a lot. Now, I try out the skills I have with different types of media, from sound to visual expression.10/10, finally I felt like I was in a place I belong.Experience
Well, here we go.
I actually did something serious and useful. Wow. (I like sarcasm, don't look at me like that).
At first, I wasn't really doing a lot, just some artsy side quests.In 2019, illustrated an album cover for Lithuanian singer, composer and amazing creator NÄrius PeÄiÅ«ra. Used mixed media traditional art - watercolors and colored pencils. Check out NÄrius PeÄiÅ«ra's work and this album on Youtube and Spotify. It has great punk vibe.Last year, 2024, I did illustrations and layout for zine "SubkultÅ«ra" by NÄrius PeÄiÅ«ra. It's my magnum opus. Sadly, I cannot provide a digital copy of it. It's strictly physical media and available only in printed version. It's underground subculture zine, appearing randomly in punk local concerts.Now I'm practicing animation and working on digital art. Hoping to work on some cool projects in the future.

My art journey
I thank dearly people who help and support me. It encourages me to grow.My art is mainly digital now since I got a drawing tablet. Krita is my art software of choice. It's free, open source and nice to use. I also have skills on Adobe products since I finished digital media school. So, I can use Photoshop, Illustrator, Premier or AfterEffects well. Also I had a chance to learn more about Blender. Not so long ago I started learning to use Moho 12 professional animation sofware. I will master it, just wait for it.Traditional media was my go-to medium most of my life. Acrylic and guache, watercolors and colored pencils - I tried them all. I still do enjoy using these techniques but at this age of technology I prefer digital art. At least for now.
