Hello!My name is Anastasia Ryzhkova. I'm an illustrator currently based in Israel. I love illustrating children's middle-grade books and magazines, especially with themes like fantasy and adventure. My favorite technique is digital with imitation of traditional materials. In illustrations I strive for lightness, airiness, and emotionality.
Before fully diving into illustration, I worked in different areas, such as the gaming industry, web design, animation, and graphic design. Now, because of my experience in these fields, it's easy for me to understand the client's needs.
I'm deeply passionate about blogging, photography, birdwatching, psychology, books, graphic novels, clothing (but not fast fashion), and dressing up in it. I love wandering through familiar or new places and sharing thoughts on my Instagram blog about work and life. I enjoy observing the small world around me: beetles, birds, and plants. It's easy for me to imagine a talking frog hiding behind a leaf.
