I'm V (Robin), the artist behind Velisveilka - an independent queer illustrator and creator based in the UK.
My work is dark and atmospheric - inspired by gothic art, fantasy, and self-expression with designs connecting with the LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent communities I am proudly a part of.I graduated from USW in 2023 with a First Class BA Hons in Game Art. I currently work as a freelance illustrator and graphic designer.
I focus on creating illustrative merchandise such as art prints, bookmarks, zines, stickers, and badges. The majority of my products are printed and assembled by hand myself at home.
