My name is Olga Shelkunova, and I am an illustrator from Ukraine.
In my work, I use various manual techniques, primarily acrylics and oil pastels. Additionally, I have expertise in digital illustration, both raster and vector. When working digitally, I am also work with oil pastel brushes.
I am highly experienced in industry-standard software such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign. This enables me to not only create visually compelling illustrations but also prepare books for printing according to the requirements.
In addition to my illustration expertise, I bring over five years of experience as a graphic designer. This experience has provided me with a keen eye for composition, layout, and typography, ensuring that my illustrations seamlessly integrate with the overall design of a book. I believe that my background in graphic design adds an extra dimension to my illustration skills, allowing me to create cohesive and visually appealing books for young readers.
I believe that effective communication, open-mindedness, and understanding of clients' needs and aspirations can result in mutually beneficial cooperation.
