Olena Nabokova

Hi there! 

My name is Elena and I am an illustrator. My creative journey started with traditional drawing and painting mediums in the setting of the art school back in Ukraine where I am from, later it followed by exhibitions in local galleries and work in the art studio. In 2015 I moved to US, but emerging in different culture and environment didn't stop me from creating, I wanted to tell stories, I wanted to give a life to the characters and locations that lived in my imagination. I was still painting with oils and acrylics, but at the same time was slowly making a shift to the digital illustrations. Shortly I became a freelance illustrator, working in editorial illustration and other creative projects. And now I am here, ready to take on another path in my journey, meet wonderful authors and create something beautiful together!
