Texture Project

Work in Progress

The goal was to create a compostiton using two hand-drawn textures, two rubbings, two paper manipulations, and two digitally-created texures. I went with the album cover design since the examples I was shown reminded of indie rock album covers. Although, the project was supposed to be more non-objective in concept.

Notan Project

The goal was to create a compostiton using cutouts from a black square. Then, use After Effects to create a quick animation. I used Illustrator to create the design before using an x-acto knife to translate the design to the physical world. I was unable to translate the people in the background with the x-acto knife. So I created a different version of the people before translating them back into digital and using them in the animation. This piece was featured in the Viz Fall Show.

Pattern Project

Work in Progress

The goal was to convert the designs from the color project into digital and create three different types of patterns from them: a linear pattern, a plannar pattern, and a radial pattern. As I created playing cards for the color project, I went with the theme of a poker game for the pattern project.

Altered Self Portrait

Work in Progress

The goal was to create an altered self portrait of myself. I took a picture of myself and used Photoshop's AI tools to create a reference for the final piece. This piece was featured in the VIZ Fall Show 2025.

Hi I'm Ilya!

Currently a student at Texas A&M in the Visualization undergraduate program. Working towards a career in the games industry.I've loved video games all my life. From Wii Sports to Street Fighter to Persona 5, the medium has brought me a space to explore new worlds, push my skills past the limits, and just have fun. It's my dream to create games for the masses to play and love, and I'm ready to give it my all to make it happen.
