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.

HELLO!
Today I would like to present the new work from the series Wild Fantasy. This series consists of the black-and-white pictures with colourful accent, made with pens.
The ideas for these pictures come from doodles. You see, I like doodling so much, and sometimes I create something which starts living rent-free in my imagination. These doodles depict ladies in fancy outfits with colourful accent, accompanied by animals, and sometimes by plants (it depends from the background chosen for the picture). On the right sidebar of this blog there is a list "My Series", and here You may see the previous works of Wild Fantasy, if You are interested.
So, after this short introduction let's start a story about the Wild Fantasy's new work with brown accent.
ENJOY!
So, one day I draw quite a fascinating rigout - a white blouse with 3 ornamental strips, and a brown skirt with one ornamental strip in lower part.
HELLO!
So, as usual in the beginning of the new year I will briefly summarise what happened on the a-r-tistic blog in previous year. I'll try to bring up threads concerning changes on the blog, and also potential things I would like to do in 2025.
SO, LET'S BEGIN!

HELLO!
So, here comes the new work from the series Wild Fantasy which was developing for a quite long amount of time. I'm not even sure how long this post will be, it definitely will be pretty long (I hope you won't feel bored during reading this).
Before I get stuck in showing the creative process of today's work let me remind You what is Wild Fantasy. This series consists of the black-and-white pictures with colourful accent which were made with pens. All of them happened because of ideas recorded on paper as doodles - ideas showing ladies in outfits with colourful accent with animals, and sometimes with flowers (it depends from the background I chose for the picture - sometimes it's the environment, sometimes it's architecture). So far I've created images with colours like green, blue, red, and violet. Actually, back in 2023 I intended to make a picture with the yellow accent. Due to the certain circumstances, I've reached a conclusion that it would be better to realise a picture with violet accent first, and save the yellow one for later.
So now, let's start the long story about the Wild Fantasy with yellow accent.
Enjoy!
This doodle was the starting point. Here you see long-haired lady with white top, and a full-length skirt with spiral ornament. This skirt was supposed to be yellow. As for spiral ornament - it's supposed to be Klimt's reference. I imagined this particular figure surrounded by an environment in the style of Art Nouveau.
HELLO!
New year has come. It brought us all not only an additional day but also a hope for a better future.
It's time to summarise my activity on the a-r-tistic blog in 2023.
So, let's begin!

| Summary 2023, graphic. This graphic shows fragments of works I've made in 2023. |
HELLO!
Today I would like to show a new work which is a part of series Wild Fantasy. In the previous years I made pieces like Green dress, fantasia amalfitana and there is a fire in my heart. They are the black-and-white pictures with a colourful accent, made with pens, showing ladies in coloured clothing with animals as companions.
The main inspiration for each of those works was a doodle.
This kind of design was giving me no peace. I felt strong urge to draw a lady clothed in a stripped dress with horizontal strips. I've envisioned this dress in violet and black colours.
HELLO!
Previous summaries appeared at the beginning of January. This time I took a rest from blogging and decided to show summary of 2022 in my a-r-tistic blog in the February.
So, let's start!
HELLO!
In the past year I've made works like Green dress and fantasia amalfitana. They've got in common a few things:
The only problem is a name for this new series - I don't know what would be a proper name.
Now let me show you my next work from new series!
HELLO!
A story of today's work started with an inconspicuous doodle.
 |
| Probably it was doodled in 2019. |
I couldn't forget about a lady with a blue bun because of her monochromatic blouse. It may sound immodestly but I liked design of this blouse, and thought it would be a mistake to not draw it again.
For a long time I was wondering how should I portray a lady wearing geometric blouse.
There were ideas to show her in some abstract dimension or in a mysterious interior in which she leans against a harp. I rejected them when I noticed a photo showing Duomo di Amalfi. Cathedral drew my attention with its marvellous deep porch.
Window of mentioned deep porch inspired me to such an extent that it became a background in my picture.
HELLO!
One day I doodled a green dress with a patterned bottom. This inspired me to create a picture showing a woman in this dress.

| Mentioned doodle. |
During drawing the first sketch I was having a doubt about the length of a dress and a hairstyle. I considered a maxi dress but changed my mind quite quickly. The only change I made with her hair was turning them into more wavy.
