KEROINKA

Perhaps I won’t be too original, but everything started with my love for drawing at a very young age. Even in kindergarten it was hard to take me away from my pencil and paper, let alone later in life! I’ve always been a creative kid, I have wanted to develop in this area and so it goes, slowly. In the meantime I picked up photography and special characterisation, unfortunately due to lack of time, drawing was pushed into the background, even though I was always drawing on people’s faces, really. When I turned 20, I decided I wanted to get back to it… and after some time the thought of tattooing crossed my head. I bought a starting kid for about a thousand and thought here goes nothing. The beginnings were very difficult, but I’ve never given up and so I’ve been running my studio Just Ink Tattoo in Warsaw for a few years now.

I love everything related to linework and dotwork. Complementary to my compositions are watercolor details, sometimes bigger or smaller. Every now and again I undertake realism, but the style I work on a day to day basis is a giant mix of sketch and color. Most frequently I do projects involving women and nature.

I won't hide the fact that I mostly draw and paint in my free time, as it basically is my whole world and I will tell you, that I’m not fed up at all! Lately I’ve been rediscovering oil painting and I’m fascinated by it. Besides that I’m still interested in photography, I really like working in Photoshop for hours on end and editing photoshoots.

Above all it’s stubborness in pursuit of the goal. Humbleness, constant growth, not resting on laurels and experimenting with different styles is, in my opinion, a key to success. Don’t limit yourself, I think that you have to try different things to overcome your fear and go even further.
