Say hello to Victoria Fomina!👋 The Moscow based artist has a magical style – naïve and folksy, but with a classical edge. Her paintings make viewers want to jump down the rabbit hole with her into a charmingly surreal world of detail and colour, crafted in the artist’s unique style. Vastly experienced, she has illustrated over 40 books for leading publishers, from classic fairy tales and novels to biographies of the great composers. 📚 Created for ‘Мozart’, originally published by Grimm Press in Taiwan back in 2002 and reprinted by Mason Crest Publishers, USA in 2003, Aditora Atica, Brazil in 2007 and again by Mason Crest Publishers in 2014. The young Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart meets people looking mysteriously in their masks and clothes during carnival season. Painted with acrylic, gouache, tempera and pencil. A self-initiated illustration for “Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll. Created in acrylic, pencil, pen and ink, liners and digital collage.✏ A painting for "Young Napoleon Bonaparte" by Michael Bartolomei published by Yeehoo Corporation, China, here the young Napoleon pretends to be the general and his friends pretend to be soldiers.👑 #WEAREILLUSTRATIONX #FeaturedArtistOfTheWeek #victoriafomina
