Artem Over
Artist and illustrator. Moscow, Russia
Artem Over creates in the digital space, as well as on walls, canvases, and paper.

In his works, Vadim focuses on the figurative, where he gives more weight to the behavior and nature of the line than to the general picture form. He counts among his influences Egon Schiele, Anthony Lister, Aitor Troop, hardcore continuum, and casual culture of the 80s.

Ira Paisley
Illustrator. Chelyabinsk, Russia
Ira is a part of Sketchar for over 3 years. She is engaged in creating content for the School section, as well as in training neural networks. When Ira take time out to draw for herself, she treats this process as meditation – so often defines her art subject, material, and technique to suit her mood. As a result, it may turn out both a "well-coiffed", neat digital picture and a quick mischievous sketch made with crayons.
