Reviews
“By this letter, I am pleased to confirm that I’ve successfully collaborated with Mr Vladimir Timokhanov, a gifted natural history artist from Almaty (Kazakhstan), on a number of projects devoted to popularization of biological knowledge. Vladimir produced some artworks for some of my popular articles and hundreds of illustrations of spiders for the book on ‘Spiders of Kazakhstan’. From the very first meeting and project, I could rely upon Vladimir’s enthusiasm, positive attitude and friendly character. He works in a very effective manner, quickly and reliably, and always manages to organise his work to ensure that all essential tasks were completed in a timely manner and with a highest possible quality. I recommend him and his artworks to anyone without reservation.”
