*PREVIOUS VO
The Next Big Interview: Sergey Zabelin
I recommend to practice as often as possible. Everyday. Watch video tutorials, favorite artists, and don't be afraid to try. I always try to follow the plan -- stage by stage. Then it will be evident in what places it is necessary to pull up."– Sergey Zabelin

Decoding Daily Deviations: Don KichoteDecoding Daily Deviations is the series that aims to unlock the secrets of what it took to create these magnificent artworks and motivate others to work towards similar recognition.
