About me

I’m an Artist, Illustrator & Designer on a mission to bring more beauty into the world. I’m deeply passionate about female beauty and expressing it through digital art. I care about aesthetics in design and life, and I’m fascinated by technology and the way it reshapes art. I’m also a co-founder of several startups. Outside the studio, I practice snowboarding, motocross, kitesurfing and Ving Tsun.

Born in Bulgaria in 1986, I started drawing at an early age and never stopped.

In 2004 I bought my first graphic tablet and discovered digital art — the perfect intersection between technology and creativity. In 2005 I was featured on DeviantArt, which gave me the confidence to pursue art seriously.

I briefly studied Visual Arts and Architecture but dropped out of both to fully dedicate myself to drawing and design.

Around 2010 I transitioned from vector to raster art, seeking more expressive, raw line work. That shift defined my style.

After working in digital agencies, I moved to product companies, including Wacom, where my work reached millions.

In 2013 I held my first solo exhibition in Sofia, attended by over 1,000 people.

From 2013–2021 I collaborated with numerous brands, designing products ranging from clothing to snowboards and large-scale installations.

In 2014 I joined Enhancv, shaping its brand, UI/UX and resume design. The platform became globally recognized, praised by Mark Cuban.

In 2018 I co-founded NobleHire and Lena-Lena.

In 2021 I entered the NFT space. My Genesis drop sold out in two days. Since then, I’ve collaborated with CoinGecko, joined PlayingArts, co-created Sublimes, exhibited on SuperRare, and became an Official Artist at NFT.NYC 2023. I’m also among the early artists building on Bitcoin Ordinals.

Digital art is my life’s work — driven by beauty, freedom, and the fusion of art and technology.
