Favorite illustrator: Ian Lewington

Favorite illustrated book? I like many books, beautifully illustrated in my opinion, but I can't choose a specific one.

Which book do you dream of illustrating? There is no specific book, but the challenge in recent years has been digital sculpting (after the achievements and capabilities of the ZBrush software). My training and self-education is slow, but within 1-2 years I hope to be able to handle a number of living nature objects.
