About

Alex Andreyev is a Russian contemporary artist born in 1972, residing in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. He has been drawing, painting, and working in graphic design for over 20 years, initially trained as a graphic designer in a small town art school where he discovered his passion for visual art. Andreyev worked in advertising agencies as head of design studios before transitioning to fine art, concept art for films like the Kin-Dza-Dza animation movie directed by Georgy Danelia, book covers, illustrations, and TV projects. His shift to digital painting allowed him greater freedom from traditional medium limitations, using tools like Adobe Photoshop and Corel Painter with a limited brush set for stylistic consistency.
