Vasja Koman, a local artist and illustrator with over 14 years of experience as a freelance artist, owns Art Alive, situated at 115 Karingal Drive in Greensborough. Vasja perfected his artistic talents whilst studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Slovenia and since becoming a resident in Australia has continued to create fine art works for the public.

Vasja specialises in illustrating for educational and children's books, creating fun cartoons and characateurs of people, perfect as a gift for a friend or corporate associate, using pencils, pastels, sepia and the like.

Vasja had his first book published in 1991, titled "The Dream". The beautifully illustrated book tells an environmental story through the eyes of a child. Vasja's book was short listed on YABBA children's book awards in 1994 and is still popular with children today.

He is also experienced in the transposition of photographs to hand drawn portraits and pet portraits.
