fun with a photo showing an old stairs

 HELLO!


From time to time I like to have fun with turning photos into surreal graphics. Generally, I chose photos showing trees, and trees are present in a photo which You can see below.


Photo from June 2021. It shows old stairs in the nearby park.

But this time trees aren't the main characters. 

I decided to focus on a part with old stonen stairs instead. 

So, I cut this fragment of photo, and edited it slightly.

a bunch of tulips

 HELLO!


Spring came, and it is a pleasure to look at a gradual awakening of nature. 

So, in today's post I'd like to show you a drawing of a young woman holding flowers.

Snow White's Choice

 HELLO!


Recently an idea of portraying Snow White was tagging along me. It was nagging me quite intrusively so eventually, I decided to make it come true. 

What may seem interesting it's not the first time I drew a work with Snow White. There's already 6th comic strip from the series "the Four Seasons in Four Frames" on this blog.

Below there's a very first draft of Snow White.



My first idea for depicting princess was showing her holding an apple, and looking curiously at a fruit. But as much as I was staring at my first draft of this concept I was feeling a lack of something.

two dragons

 HELLO!


If You come by my blog from time to time, then surreal graphics based on a photos of trees are nothing new to You. I sometimes like to take photos of the trees. I find them oddly inspiring.

In today's post I'd like to show You another work created thanks to a photo of trees.


In February 2023 I took this photo in the nearby forest.

So, I cropped a fragment from an above photo, and dived into experimenting.

SO, LET'S BEGIN!
