My tiny Plus illo created for Festiwal Polskich Filmów Fabularnych.

I created lots of sketches for this one and the final image depicts one of the iconic modernist buildings in Gdynia. It was designed by Roman Piotrowski in 1935 as the headquarters of the Social Insurance Institution.

D&AD pencils really do look gorgeous and I finally have mine at home.

Still can’t believe I got one for my „Le grand bleu” poster. This 4-colour screenprint has been printed by my friends at Reprint who did an absolutely amazing job!

I have just packed this one and it made me realize that it is almost 10 years since he passed away. I drew this portrait the day Blackstar came out and then, two days later, The Man who Fell to Earth left it.

My portraits for University of Massachusetts have just been featured on best of @behance.bsky.social gallery!
August 7, 2025 at 7:56 PM
Sometimes the reference photos I get from the clients are super tiny so drawing the portraits can be a bit of a challenge but... I always do my best to get the liking right.

Here’s a new set of portraits for In Memoriam section of the University of Massachusetts magazine.

Congratulations Iga!!!

Jaws was released 50 years ago today!

Here's the screenprint I created 10 years ago. The hand drawn illustration was made out of 202 solid lines and the process was extremely time-consuming. I redrew the poster three times, each time drawing more lines and making them more and more fluid...

A quick preview of David Hume’s portrait. Using paintings and etchings as reference is ”just a bit” more difficult than using the photos.

Can’t believe it!

Le Grand Bleu got an D&AD Pencil last evening in London! Being shortlisted was already a dream come true but this is just UNBELIEVABLE!

Huge thanks to the jury and Reprint who beautifully printed this 4-colour screenprint!

OMG!!! I just got the news that my "Le Grand Bleu" has been shortlisted for D&AD! It means a lot to me to be shortlisted for one of the most (if not the most) prestigious awards in the industry! I know it sounds cliche but… this really made my day (if not the whole week)!
