About

I’m Rostislav Shekhovtsov, a Creative Art Director and 2D Generalist with over 10 years of experience shaping visual development, brand storytelling, and design direction across interactive media, games, and book illustration. I enjoy building cohesive visual identities—defining color palettes, visual languages, and art guidelines—while collaborating closely with creative teams to bring concepts to life.

I’ve led art direction for animation and series-style development, and I also design characters, environments, and promotional materials that connect the atmosphere and cultural character of a place to the final visuals. From defining the look of projects like Occupy White Walls to producing environments, animation, and motion graphics across digital and print formats, my focus is always on originality, clarity, and a consistent creative vision.
