The team of Cyprus Comic Con is pleased to announce that Cyprus.com is returning as sponsor for this year’s event!

Cyprus.com – The Leading Portal In Cyprus About Cyprus

Untitled-1Cyprus.com is the top ranked commercial portal about Cyprus and every year connects approximately 2 million business people, locals and tourists with businesses, destinations and events in Cyprus.

Cyprus.com’s reach of over 1,500,000 people is unprecedented in Cyprus across any benchmark as only a handful of advertising media in Cyprus have the ability to reach the numbers of individual engaged consumers that Cyprus.com does.

More importantly, the overwhelming majority of visitors on Cyprus.com are on the site searching for businesses, products and services making it the go-to portal for individuals or enterprises to advertise their offerings. The information on the site is provided by way of its comprehensive database which includes over 40,000 Cypriot businesses in 720 destinations within Cyprus, an events portal updated daily with events taking place all over Cyprus, photos, videos, reviews, geo-tags, articles and more.

Cyprus.com offers the ability to deliver a businesses’ marketing message to consumers at the exact moment they are searching for products and services, through targeted advertising according to the product or business category. It provides ways for any business in Cyprus, regardless of size, to have a strong online presence and offers a channel to reach thousands of new consumers every day.

Cyprus.com continues to strive to be the definitive online source of information about Cyprus, growing at a pace and with innovation unlike any other web property in Cyprus for the promotion of Cypriot enterprise, investment, culture and tourism within Cyprus and abroad.

Naya Kozlova

02/08/2016 by

Meet Naya Kozlova, an upcoming young illustrator that will be showcasing her work at Cyprus Comic Con 2016!

Naya was born in Latvia, raised on the shore of the non-freezing port of the Baltic Sea, moved to Cyprus for family reasons approximately 6-7 years ago. As a kid, around eight years old, she used to attend private classes of a local artist. That did not last long – her dog was not quite as fond of an enthusiastic young girl as you would expect it to be. Thus art became a hobby and English along with normal school subjects became priority.

Follow Naya’s work on her Youtube, Instagram and Tumblr profiles, as well as her Facebook feed.

Fortunately, Naya says, if art lives within you, it never leaves you. There were doodles in class notebooks, copy sketches from local shop supplies of W.I.T.C.H. magazines and, finally, a music channel that showed “Chobits” and “Chrono Crusade” in the evening. Later came Internet and the wonders of Studio Ghibli along with more doodles in class notebooks. Ivy can remember well, that no one could really figure out whether to shout at her, because her grades were good despite the fact that half of my notebooks looked like manga.

Somehow, drawing never became a job for Naya. Completely self-trained in arts, finishing a diploma in Communications, she continued working in an office, meanwhile establishing an Instagram profile and a YouTube channel. She is currently working on a story with original characters and filming sketchbook reviews in Russian and English, part-time designing tattoos.
