I am a scientific painter. I finished studies at St. Petersburg University in 1989 and studied at the Academy of Art and Design in the book illustration department. From 1990 to 1993 I worked at the St. Petersburg Centre of Graphic Art and cooperated with the State Publishing House "Nauka" ("Science") and with the SPb Botanical Institute. Since 1997 I have illustrated botanical atlases for publishing house "Chero na Neve". I have taken part in scientific and sporting expeditions (Tien Shan, the Caucasus, the Hibiny Mountains, Kamchatka, Lake Ladoga). I can use water-colours, tempera and other materials. In my free time I like to produce ink drawings.
