Introducing myself. Hi, I’m Inber, artist and illustrator:)

Hi, guys!

I'm new to this blog, so I decided to start with an introduction post. So let me introduce myself :)

I am an illustrator from Ukraine. Drawing is my job, but apart from it I have a huge number of hobbies, sometimes it even seems to me that it is too big. I really like to try new things and I do it all the time, and if nothing new happens for a long time, I start to feel sad.

I work with both digital drawing and traditional drawing, and to be honest, it's hard for me to decide which one I like best. Both have their own charm and features that the other does not have. But when I first started painting, I started with traditional painting, namely oil painting. Later I got my first tablet and started doing digital drawing. Now if I work with traditional materials, then these are graphic materials such as pencils, markers and ink.

As for the subjects of my art, lately they have mostly been portraits.

For example such. In addition, I have long wanted to make an author's comic, but so far I'm stuck at the character development stage. For example like this:

Or you can draw completely plotless illustrations, but then you need to add a drop of magic to them.

In the first photo I am with a flute. Music takes a huge place in my life, I play four musical instruments, namely flute, guitar, saxophone and piano. The playing skill is different, the favorite instrument is the saxophone. He calms down perfectly, I always know that no matter how much I'm nervous, I just have to play for half an hour, and everything will be fine. With no other instrument I have such a spiritual connection.

Another very important part of my life is sports. I'm already over thirty, but I'm still drawn to its extreme forms. I do aerial gymnastics. So far, not very long ago, and now I had to take a break due to the red zone of quarantine, but I plan to return there soon.

When I talked about music, I almost forgot to talk about vocals. At first I was engaged in opera, but now I switched to pop. It's a wonderful feeling to come to my wonderful teacher once a week and forget about everything in the world while working on your voice.

This post is already very, very long, so tomorrow I will write the second part so as not to bore you too much :)

But there are still a few nuances that I must definitely say about myself.

I live with type 1 manic depressive disorder, now commonly referred to as bipolar disorder. This is a doctor's diagnosis, I did not come up with it myself. And usually in my blogs I write about mental disorders quite often.

I have a wonderful dog, but I will also show him tomorrow, because the site says that I have already inserted too many photos.

Have a great weekend everyone! :)

See you in the next post!
Love, Inber
