Hey there! My name is Olia Shovkova and I’m a Ukrainian illustrator and painter based in Prague, Czech Republic.
I illustrate, design, print, and sell a wide selection of art products in my shop artshovk.com. I work with different kind of materials including gouache, acryla gouache, watercolors, acrylics, colored pencils, ink, and I also work digitally.
My artworks are inspired by the things I see and places I discover. When I’m not making art, I enjoy being out in nature and going on adventures. I love visiting galleries, botanical gardens, zoo and I always have my sketchbook with me.
I’m available for illustration work, wedding invitations, and other creative projects.
If you’re interested in working together, please don’t hesitate to contact me: artshovk@gmail.com
I hope the pieces I make will bring you joy!
Here are more things about me:
