Portfolio

Alla K’s portfolio extends beyond the canvas, blending fine art with the raw energy of street culture and everyday objects. From bold digital illustrations to hand-painted wheatpastes, and 228 postal label art, each piece reimagines where and how art can exist. These works carry the same spirit as her paintings—vibrant, symbolic, and character-driven—but live in unexpected spaces, transforming city walls, mail labels, and screens into stages for storytelling.

Digital Art

This collection features my digital artwork, where bold colors, intricate details, and expressive storytelling converge. Inspired by street art, pop culture, and symbolism, these works explore themes of curiosity, resilience, and self-discovery in a vibrant, modern format.

This collection highlights artwork created on USPS 228 labels, a medium beloved in street art culture for its accessibility and raw energy. Each piece transforms a simple shipping label into a canvas for character-driven storytelling and vibrant experimentation.

Street Art
