About me

Welcome to Retravell!

I'm Valerii, an illustrator and designer. For the past six years, I’ve been creating poster collections—each one a reflection of my love for nature and my journey as an artist.

It hasn’t always been easy. Every time I made a poster about the U.S. national parks, I doubted myself. I worried it wasn’t beautiful enough, that my skills weren’t enough, that it wasn’t ready to be shared. Often, the next day, I’d look at my work and see only mistakes. I felt embarrassed, insecure, and unsure if I was on the right path. Yet, I kept going.

What kept me moving forward was a dream: to see the breathtaking beauty of national parks in person. This dream inspired me every day, giving me courage when doubt crept in, and pushing me to create, even when it was hard. I painted, sketched, and designed, letting nature guide my hand.

Over the past six months, I finally found a style that feels truly mine. Each collection is a piece of my journey, a testament to persistence, patience, and following your passion—even when it scares you. Maybe everything happens exactly when it’s meant to. Not a second earlier. Perhaps I’ve taken the first steps toward my dream, or perhaps it’s simply a new stage, a new challenge.

Retravell is more than just a store—it’s a bridge between dreams and reality. My posters allow you to bring the magic of these incredible places into your home. Whether you’ve already visited these parks or are dreaming of your first adventure, I hope my work inspires you to explore, imagine, and keep your own dreams alive.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Journey adventure starts now.
