About me

Who am I?

My name is Alina, and I am a certified artist and illustrator. Creating illustrations for children is my greatest passion and life’s work. I graduated from VGIK with a degree in animation art, and since then, I have been building worlds every day—worlds that invite you to dream and smile. I have been fortunate to become a winner and laureate of various competitions, but my greatest reward is always the emotions and inspiration my illustrations bring to young readers. I truly believe that illustration can open hearts and help children see more beauty and kindness in the world.

In addition, I work in a wide range of techniques—from warm watercolor and lively gouache to detailed digital compositions—which allows me to adapt to the style and mood of each book. In my work, I pay special attention to developing characters through color choices and poses, as well as building thoughtful compositions so that both children and adults can easily immerse themselves in the story. I am open to collaboration with authors, editors, and designers, always attentive to feedback and requests. My flexibility and sense of responsibility help me to strictly meet deadlines while maintaining the highest quality. For me, it is important not just to illustrate the text, but to inspire children to make new discoveries and to keep their sense of wonder alive on every page.
