a Dragon - part 1

 HELLO!


One day I thought that it would be splendid to draw a dragon which doesn't look sillily. This desire was inspired by manga One Piece, and a sculpture of chinese dragon I saw in one of the polish museums. 

So, my aim became a dragon.


This picture shows a Far Eastern Asian Dragon flying above the waterfall.
In this waterfall there are carps koi. This sketch was inspired by the legend about
the Golden Dragon.

the Wise Man

 HELLO!


 Sometimes I find a pleasure in experimenting with photographies and turning them into graphics.

This time I'd like to show a graphic called the Wise Man which was based on an old photography.


the Wise Man, graphic.

As you can see I used contrasting colours which gave quite interesting effect.

The main inspiration was an old photography. It shows a sculpture of an old man which was a part of the pulpit in church. Unfortunately I don't remember which church was that, and in which city of the Lower Silesia this church was located. 

Although I've got a hunch I could have taken this photo in Ziębice.


Mentioned photography which was made on May 2015.


That's all.

What do you think about the Wise Man?

Feel free to share your opinion in comments section.


Have a Nice Day!

Spot the Difference

 HELLO!


Today I'd like to tell you about my first time with creating a game "spot the difference".

The whole idea started with a desire to write a poem about a game, and reflections concerning manga Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei. Actually, the game appeared in a few chapters of Kōji Kumeta's manga. One can gather an impression that manga is toying with reader in the similar way as "spot the difference" do.


I wasn't sure what kind of situation should my pictures show. At first I thought about drawing a scene from the beach. Somehow I ended up with creating a moment in which girl is petting cat in a very abstract place.

Also, I wanted a colour scheme of my pictures to be limited to black and white. Pretty soon I yielded to temptation of using more colours - mostly pink, red and yellow.


Spot the 5 differences, fineliners on paper, 21 x 14,8 cm.


The answers for this game you will find at the end of this post.

A Bold Decision

 HELLO!


From time to time I like to cut an interesting words and pictures from the old newspapers, flyers or printed essays (for example a collage poem hanami was created from my old essay about japanese custom).

As time goes by those cuttings will become a part of collage.

And I'm writing all of this because I've created a new one, involving drawings and scraps.

ENJOY!
