Predators by KFKS

New-York based Russian artist Nastya Kaerfkrahs KFKS just completed here next indoors mural art for the local book store ZAKKA SHOP "I spent around 5-6 hours of drawing per day for 1 month. During the process many people were wondering if I made sketches on canvases with a projector? The answer is that I used free hand drawing ONLY. As all of you may (or may not) know this is a drawing done by hand without the use of guiding or measuring instruments." Materials: canvases, black mat acrylic, brushes (01, 2, 8).

Nikolay Biryukov

Russian-born fashion photographer Nikolay Biryukov is currently based in London. He works between London, Moscow, Paris and Milan shooting mainly fashion stories for a range of international magazines. Recent work includes editorials for magazines such as Elle Ukraine, Interview Russia, L'Officiel, Stylist UK, SNC, and many other.
