There is some of this certain classic "Russian" style element in his/her art.

Can you post some more examples on what this ''Russian style'' is.
I wish to know more

It's that particular style of classic Russian animation I refer to, from 50's to 70's or so.
Poster-like colouring, curly(ish) ornamentation, strong shadowing. The background is often at minimum, but not because of the lack of effort, on the contrary: The attention is very prevalently drawn to the character to almost create a caricature of the character itself.
Do a pic search for Russian animation.

It's no wonder that this kind of art is often categorized as "dark" here in the West.
