I’ve spent my life obsessed with image-making - from shooting medium format film and painting in oils to building complex 3D scenes from the ground up.

My path started in 1990 on film sets at Armenfilm while studying cinematography at university, ran through classical animation at Moscow’s Soyuzmultfilm studio, and led to heading creative direction at Triada Studio - shaping visual stories for clients like Psyop, Riot Games, ESPN, and L’Oréal.

The real high for me isn’t the finished render; it’s the hunt. It’s like cracking a detective case - chasing a visual idea until you find the exact texture, timing, or light shift that makes a story click.

In a landscape flooded with glossy, soulless visuals made for quick likes, I stick to what matters: taste, narrative, and real craft. I’m not interested in taking shortcuts to produce average work. I’m here to build spaces and stories that carry a genuine human signature.
