Paul Strand
Info
My name is Sergey Skripkar and started to paint before I could read or write! Graduated from the Grekov Art School (Odessa Ukraine) and have a diploma in teaching drawing and sketching. After moving up to Israel, I started to learn computer graphics and worked in advertising companies - drawing pencil sketches, create computer illustration for magazines, books, newspaper, designed 3d dimensional models, interactive presentation and Internet contents. Now I'm working as a full time - graphic designer, self-representing watercolor and oil painter artist, teaching groups of kids, teenagers and adults.
Creativity is not only drawing, and artist is not only one who professionally draws. Creativity is much wider than canvases, brushes or a drawing tablet. Creativity is a life full of adventure and emotions. It doesn’t matter whether we are newcomers or masters in our field, we all have something to tell about. Each has his own way of self-expression, his own book for inspiration..
Every work of art is initiated with love and passion, and is an expression of the sum total of the artist's personality. Technical skill is definitely required; but it is merely the tool to communicate one's message. Graphic design Isn’t just about Photoshop or Illustrator - It’s about Art and Psychology. I believe that the more a designer knows about the way that people behave & what makes them act and react, then the better they can implement affective design strategies into a project. The best designer creates a design that captures and holds your markets' interest while bringing in sales at the same time. This is about understanding and creating visual language!
Let's create together..
In addition to loving design and beauty, I have a fondness for languages. While my native languages are Ukranian & Russian, I am also fluent in Hebrew and English. You can contact me with any questions regarding painting, graphic design, illustration - or just for advice! I will be glad to help!
Also I will be happy to give you advice on any of the topics I know about!
