A collage, gouache, and colored pencil illustration of animals on a ride together. A bear on a bike looking nervous, a rabbit losing control on roller skates, a dog on a bike grabbing a fish in a bowl that was sliding off the back, a snake on a skateboard, and a beaver on a scooter.

Hi #portfolioday ☀️

I’m a Polish illustrator & 2D game artist. I create in traditional & digital media, usually celebrating nature or small moments of everyday life. I love to encourage my fellow artists, and hope to teach art one day 🌱

☕️ My shop with wallpapers & prints: ko-fi.com/vexnir/shop

Digital illustration, Pokémon fan art. The artwork depicts a pond filled with lily pads, and in the middle of it, Ludicolo is sitting with a happy expression and a cup of green tea in its hands. One Lotad is floating next to it in the water, and two more are playing around on top of Ludicolo’s hat.

Digital illustration of my OC Xepher holding a baby goat. The goat is brown and white, and it’s snuggled up to Xepher’s face. He is wearing an oversized, orange sweater. They’re standing on a meadow filled with yellow flowers. Hills and trees can be seen on the horizon, under blue sky with a big, fluffy cloud.

Mixed media traditional drawing of a green field on a bright summer day. Blue cows are grazing in the grass. There’s a big fluffy cloud over the field, and the sky is deep blue. There’s a pattern of scribbly 4-pointed stars below the main drawing.

Traditional drawing in mixed media of a white cat with a yellow straw hat sitting inside a blue cardboard box. It’s surrounded with other boxes full of oranges. The drawing is framed with doodles of oranges above and below the main artwork.

An illustration of a little girl running covered in mud splatters, followed by six happy boarlets, who are also covered in mud. There are three adults, two of which are stepping back in an attempt not to get muddy and looking shocked, while the third is raising an eyebrow in disbelief
