graphics including the rainbow haze

 HELLO!

With the beginning of the March I went on the stroll during which I took a few photos. One of them shows naked branches. It inspired me to create a surreal graphics based on this photo of trees. It was foreseeable. To be fair, it would be strange, if I didn't make one.

Anyway, enjoy!

A mentioned photo showing naked branches. Beginning of the March, 2026.

I cropped the fragment of this photo, and started experiments. Mostly with gradients.

Those experiments resulted in the soft rainbow effect. 

So soft, one may think it's a rainbow mist.

Water Nymph

 HELLO!

For some time I was working on a picture of a lady standing in the vague body of water. In today's post You will see a short story which started from a sketch made with a brown crayon, and ended with a portrayal of a Water Nymph.

Enjoy!

A brown crayon sketch I mentioned.

Summary 2025

 HELLO!

It became a tradition for me to start a new year on the blog with a brief summary. It's about time to remember works I did in 2025, and also consider things which might happen in 2026 on an a-r-tistic blog.

SO, LET'S BEGIN.

Summary 2025, graphic.
In this graphic You may see parts of works I've made in 2025.

Artemis

 HELLO!

In the summary 2024 I mentioned that I'd like to create a picture inspired by Greek mythology. To be precise an image of certain goddess - by that I meant Artemis. Fascinating goddess of hunt, Apollo's twin sister who is associated with the Moon. 

I thought of my future picture as a nocturne showing the mighty goddess standing prepared with her bow and arrows in the moonlight.

Below there are doodles in which I tried various poses.

letting the red crane go

 HELLO!

For some time certain thought was tickling my mind, and it was the idea of drawing a lady wearing a kimono. Maybe it's because I haven't been doing an art inspired by Japanese culture in quite a long time. At first I've got no idea how to compose a picture, or which colours I should choose. Finally I came up with usage of a contrast, and with an addition of something symbolic.

Below You could look at my work - letting the red crane go.
