Hi folks,
Now, you are reading a few sentences about a guy, who has changed his life through the drawing.
Yes, that´s me, Matej Ilčík!
I was born in 1988 (still young:), and I live in Slovakia.
As an art lover and a self-taught painter I moved toward illustration and graphic design.
Although, I often draw on my Wacom tablet, I have not abandoned the hand-drawn style. Perhaps it is my experience of painting and using "dirty" materials why I am still in love with hand-made techniques.
I really like when an illustration or a poster looks hand-made - I need to view it as if it were cut-outs, ink drawings, pencil sketches or watercolours.
Why am I still working in this style? I think, that it allows me a more personal approach in expressing my ideas. No, I don´t blame new media nor vector graphics , I really like it, but my prefed style is hand-made:)
Enjoy my site! If you are interested in something, or you want to ask me question, feel free to leave a comment or send me an e-mail.
I will be happy for every response!
