Instead of pursuing a career as a teacher after studying Russian, Balázs Solti from Budapest decided to work as a freelance illustrator. The Hungarian works both digitally and with acrylic or pencil. He paints fantastic dream images as well as snapshot-like situations, but his favourite motifs are animals, which he gives the human bodies of dandies, sportsmen or punks or adds accessories to their manes - a journey through the zoo of pop culture.
