Hi! I'm Aleksei. I've been working in both games and literature as an illustrator and concept artist since 2020. I specialize in fantasy illustrations and character design.Currently, I am the creative director for Psychic City Games, an indie game development studio based in the Philippines where we're working to bring our flagship game, Meet Me on the Mountain (Game of the Year 21/22 in Game Jam Plus), to life. We're piecing together a heart-wrenching story that will explore relationships, memories, and trauma and I'll be making sure it's a treat for both the eyes and the soul!I've worked with FAE Games on A Nightmare in Sutradain, a D&D 5e module, where I illustrated and visually conceptualized over 40 characters, monsters, and scenes. I'm continuing that journey with them on their next module which they've just announced on Kickstarter.I'm also currently working with an author to bring you a children's book story about finding your wings and managing your insecurities which I hope will be out very soon.It's my dream to be able to share a world that people would love to be immersed in and live in. I know that everyone has a story to tell. And I've taken it as my passion to bring them to life.I love playing video games and consuming heavily emotional narratives, be it a movie, a series, or a book. I also have a soft spot for tabletop games!

D&D Fantasy Art
Young, old, youthful, or wise. There's all sorts of creatures that lurk the lands. DemkiArts is all about capturing them in their own lights and understanding the stories behind their stoic faces. Each character comes with their own values, beliefs, boons, and - of course - flaws. Immerse yourself into their worlds and walk in their shoes. Relive the life you can only imagine and perhaps one day, we may just breathe them into life.
