I'm Masha Falkov, and I've been drawing since Ican'trememberwhen. You can find my art on Facebook or on my homepage, Dreams and Travels.

Making art is my life, which is why I can't stick to just one medium. Pen and ink is my favorite, but I've been spending a lot of time working in digital media and glasswork lately.

My digital work has a wide variety of techniques, but much of it uses my own photography, custom brushwork, and traditional painting techniques on a graphics tablet. It's a frictionless medium, and there are concepts I can express well only through the techniques digital allows.

I create many forms of glass sculpture. I make accurate representations of molecule models, geeky fanart figurines, and many, many marbles. Working with glass is like a fever dream, watching the many colors the rods turn as they become more liquid. It's really addictive, and it's the only 3D medium I work in.

The biggest factor I have in creating my work is time, and even the smallest donation helps me allow more time for focused drawing, making my tarot deck, and trying out new techniques with glass. They help me pay for my basic needs such as food, rent, and raw glass to work with. I have several projects I'm working on, and with your help can complete so much faster, since I won't be quite as bogged down with freelance glasswork! In return you get access to high-resolution images of my work, signed prints, and cute little "care packages" that contain little mini-prints and glass sculptures shipped right to you!

These are the projects I'm working on and wish to see to completion.

My ink drawings are very detailed and take several weeks to create. I'd love to make more of them, but they require the most time and attention out of all the different projects. I'm in the middle of one right now!

Though I love working in ink most, I also like to work in digital media and sometimes mix the two together.

- Post Psychedelic Cyberpunk Tarot (oracle) - I designed this deck, complete with a pamphlet containing descriptions for each highly unorthodox card within, about 8 years ago. I'm in the process of redesigning each of the 60 cards right now, and want to keep going. This deck is a sort of catalog of all kinds of really cool ideas taken from literature and neural-cybernetic concepts.

- The Gossamer Web Graphic Novel - 2 years ago, I finally finished up the third volume and revised the whole series. Though I've had the first two printed up in a more indie-style bind, I really want to get the whole comic printed in a beautifully bound book format. The Gossammer Web was what I did for three years straight, 24/7. You can read parts 1 & 2 here - www.thegossamerweb.com

- Geeky Fan Art Glass Figurines - Last year I worked on a set of Breaking Bad chibi figurines out of glass. They were some of the most challenging pieces I've made, owing to the trickiness of getting the faces just right. Glass just wants to melt and flow everywhere, not stay in one place until it's welded. I'd really love to make more different figurines because they're not only beautiful to have on one's shelf or altar, but they're extremely fun to make!

-DNA and other really complex glass molecule models - The last time I made two levels of a DNA molecule it didn't quite connect and shattered apart after 4 hours of work straight. I would love to make more complicated models such as DNA and Oxytocin, and have an exhibit in a gallery to show the beauty of chemistry. I also want to make a series of the biochemical processes of how familiar chemicals such as serotonin form. (That's chlorophyll below)
