There is something truly special about blue dragons. They are extraordinarily beautiful and deeply mystical - so of course, a dragon in this enchanting shade simply had to find its place in my bestiary π

Packing your orders always makes me smile π
So many of these packages have already flown out into the world, and Iβm honestly so grateful for every single order β€οΈ Canβt wait to see where they end up next! π
Last summer, I had the chance to visit several fascinating museums that filled me with inspiration.
I was especially drawn to stylized botanical ornaments, and I decided to weave those kinds of motifs into my illustrations.
Dragons arenβt the only creatures close to my heart. A new illustration featuring a werewolf is coming β¨

During cold winter days, thereβs nothing better than the warmth and coziness of your own space. Thatβs what inspired me to create this illustration β a dragon in an amethyst cave.

Forest Dragon - where it all began. The first card for my bestiary shaped a new direction and became a defining part of my style.
Now Iβm turning that experiment into my own art book. I donβt know how long it will take, but the journey is already something special β₯οΈ

A while ago, I asked my audience what kind of dragon youβd like to see next. The most popular suggestion was a water dragon - so here it is :)

The Kirin is a legendary creature known from the ancient tales of the Far East. According to legend, it appeared only in times and places marked by virtue and harmony, and its presence was considered a sign of great prosperity β¨

The Mushroom Dragon is a delicate creature that dwells upon the forest floor. It can take on the appearance of many kinds of mushrooms, hiding safely among them from predators. Though it cannot fly, it has the ability to glide between the trees.

Thank you very much for your kind words β€οΈ You can expect much more - I'm currently work on the whole art book based on this aesthetic :)
Nocturnal dragon πβ¨
Another illustration for my personal bestiary project. This enigmatic creature most commonly lives in enormous abandoned buildings, such as castles or cathedrals.

In recent days, the world has been gripped by frost, taking on softer, more pastel tones.
Shimmering white snow, frost-covered surfaces, and a violet-and-yellow sky with a pale sun - this vision of a calm, luminous winter settled in my imagination.

The Land Where Ice Meets Fire β¨
While exploring various color inspirations, my attention was drawn to photographs of Icelandic landscapes. The raw, volcanic scenery felt like the perfect place for a dragon to dwell.

Another massive beast to collection!
This time it's Fafnir β the cursed treasure-hoarding dragon from the Volsunga Saga, a dark tale from Norse mythology. Once a man, now a monster twisted by greed.
