Jaan RƵƵmus

Jaan RƵƵmus (RƵƵmus for short) is an illustrator who has a hard time sticking to one style. He enjoys trying different techniques and discovering intriguing new angles for his fondest subjects, which include architecture, machines, nature, everyday life, old toys, childrenā€™s playhouses, and more. He uses ordinary quills and ink alongside Cintiq pens in his art. RƵƵmus holds a bachelorā€™s degree in graphic design from the Estonian Academy of Arts.
