About

Hello, my name is Anastasiy. Nice to meet you!
Greetings from Hollywood!

I’m
developer, designer, photographer and founder at Anastasiy.com – the source for essential graphical software for painters and graphical artists widely used around the world. My software is being adopted for many years inside such studios as
Disney, Blizzard, Epic Games, Crytek, Dreamworks and many others. It includes MagicPicker color wheelMixColors color mixer or DiskFonts font manager. I have more than 25 years of experience in graphic arts, UI design, software engineering, product design, 3D modeling and art direction. Situated myself in Hollywood (Los Angeles, CA, USA), I’m as well constantly consulting with the leading artists from feature film industry. Which makes it possible for me to assemble tools exactly matching the needs of the industry.

I travel a lot – been to and lived in many great places and countries of the world like India, China, Armenia, Russia, Turkey, Ecuador, Chile, Peru, Bolivia, Colombia and USA (where I reside). The recent place I lived in for several years – Ecuador, I consider it my second home – the land of scenic landscapes, photogenic villages and rainforests, my source of the inspiration forever.

 

Ecuador, 2012. I'm climbing Cotopaxi volcano - almost 1km up on foot with crampons and ice axes. The snowy top of the mountain is barely seen from here, covered with clouds

In my blog I will publish tips & tricks for my software, some thoughts, news and other things.
