2023 Christmas / Illustrations




End of this year, due to the blackout in Ukraine, everything is different. It was a tough year for everyone.

Despite everything that happens, Ukrainians haven't stopped believing in the good. On the contrary - they have bought garlands, candles, and battery-powered lamps and are trying to create comfort for their relatives. Mothers and children bake Christmas cupcakes and cookies by candlelight. And for the holidays, everyone has already prepared board games and puzzles so that you don't get bored during power outages and have fun. This year's gifts are also different from the usual - generators, starlinks, packages of warm clothes, medicines, and sweets for the front line.

And I want to remind everyone - all this is happening in my country, because
RUSSIA IS A TERRORIST STATE!

sKETCHES AND CONCEPTS
I started making sketches and storyboards of different scenes based on everything that's happening right now. Showing everything in a rosy light, I want to emphasize that each of us has started to appreciate life even more. Moments that used to seem ordinary to us have become very valuable.


Characters and elements
For the Christmas illustrations set, I designed characters of all ages, pets, and animals. I also created many elements and props for histories.




I hope this Christmas will be the last we spend in such a hard mode. And next year, I hope we will be happy again, celebrating and hugging each other.
