Zhenia Vasiliev, illustrator

hello[at]zheniavasilievdesign.com

I am an illustrator with 20 years of experience creating colourful, flat geometric illustrations. I spent my formative years employed as an information designer, thus you find that my portfolio has a lot of infographics. Beyond those, I’m specialising in iconography, spot illustrations, animation assets and other creative content for minisites, annual reports, branding, social media, interactives and more.

Achievements:

  • Information is Beautiful, Silver award

  • The Macmillan Prize for Illustration, Highly Commended

  • Self-initiated work published in The Guardian, The Slate, Mashable, FastCo:Design and Understanding the World: The Altals of infographics by Taschen.


For outside the US, contact me directly.

In the US, I’m represented by the fabulous Rapp Art. Send them an email, see my portfolio on their website and on iSpot.

I had the pleasure of working with Zhenia on a number of projects. Not only is he a fantastically talented designer & illustrator - he is also one of the most well mannered, level headed and good natured colleagues I've worked with. Highly recommended!

Zhenia is a phenomenal designer who consistently over-delivered on expectations while working together. His portfolio is very impressive and I would recommend his expertise to anyone in a heartbeat.

Zhenia is a very talented designer and illustrator who is a delight to work with. He has worked with me on data visualisation infographics for a particularly demanding client, and produced great work, remaining positive and professional at all times.
