gazing out at the distance

 HELLO!

Here's a woman. Her face remains unknown as she's rear-faced to viewer. She's focused on a landscape beneath her.

This is a vision I draw on a paper recently. Soon I felt a need to do something interesting with it.

By "something interesting" I meant using pastels (both dry and oil), and also watercolour crayons. I craved to experiment with them.

I started with dry pastels. Then I used watercolour crayons for womanly silhouette.

the Symphony of Terror

 HELLO!

A year ago I wrote a poem inspired by Yuki Kajiura's composition the Main theme of Petit Cossette. This beautiful & moody piece of music made me think about the dark sky and blusterous storm.

The poem I wrote is named symfonia grozy and you will be able to read it HERE.

Today I'd like to show you a pastel created on the basis of a poem, and also a translation of mentioned poem - the symphony of terror.

ENJOY!

blue mermaid

Hello! 

🐟

 

I experimented a bit... Again.

A graphic you're able to see below was formed from an old doodle of mermaid (I can't explain why but I sometimes like to draw mermaids) which was carried on a blue background.

Have a Nice Day!

a mermaid on a brown paper

Hello!

     The first thing I must say is sorry. I apologize for my long absence and disability in organising my own life (hope that I find a solution for my problems).

     Today I want to show a drawing of white-haired mermaid which is sitting on rocks. This sea creature seems pretty wild and also - thoughtful. I can't explain why I often draw people (mostly women) in the state of reverie or sadness. I think that's really intimate feeling, plus a message about inner struggles, longings, etc.

     Oh, and one more thing. Lately I'm using a pencil and a white crayon on a brown paper. I really love the effect - it reminds me sketches of Renaissance artists I saw long time ago (I don't remember particular examples, sorry).

Have a Nice Day!

Siren Song

Hello!

     In the last day of September I published a drawing inspired by Yuki Kajiura's composition - "Siren song" (Tsubasa Chronicle OST). And I'm sorry for a quality of photo - in fact colours of the drawing are more saturated. Mermaids are connected with water so I decided to draw them in shades of blue and green. 

       Oh, and there's one thing - you probably wouldn't see this. A mermaid from the left lower corner is a small reference to Girl with a Pearl Earring made by Johannes Vermeer. That's all :-D

I hope you'll enjoy my work.

Have a nice day! 

a Hope of the Phoenix

Hello!

In this post I want to show you not only a pastel but also my poem about its. If you are interested, please take a look.

a hope of the phoenix, pastel on paper, 21x14,9 cm.

a hope of the phoenix

the phoenix flitted 

it lost its fiery feathers 

during a flight 

but feathers didn't fall on the Earth 

- with a sunset as a background

feathers separate somewhere above in the air 

beyond a man's reach

the phoenix saw a sunset 

while it was burning out of sadness

and flew towards the Sun

however it still had got a hope 

for rebirth

towards new life 

the phoenix flew to be born 

in rays of the new day

That's all. If you are interested in polish version (original :-) of poem, 
please take a look THERE.

Have a nice day!

Yuki Kajiura - You are my love

'A Summer'

A summer, crayons

Hello!

Long time no see :-D

When I was wondering how should personification of summer look like? Well, I imagined that every personification should be special... In that case, autumn (in reverie) has got a straight, long brown hair and dress decorated by colorful leaves. Spring has got a long, curly red hair, freckles and a green dress with a floral pattern.

The expectation of shooting stars

The Expectation of Shooting stars, pastel on a cardboard, 14 x 19,7 cm

Hello!

Long time no see :-)

Suddenly, I wanted to realise one small project which I doodled in one of my notebooks. This picture happened thanks to my fascination with Moai sculptures from Rapa Nui (which is known as the Easter Island).

the Beach and the Best Wishes

the Beach, pastel

Hello!

That's a kind of a short break in drawing 'Galadriel'... I think that this pastel was made before a Christmas Eve in 2014... I drew it for someone. 

I found a nice photography of Polish beach in one magazine and - inspired by this photography I made this pastel. 

You know... 

Pastel isn't perfect but I love a blue colour.

That's all.

I want to wish you a lovely,

peaceful, happy and cheerful Christmas Eve and Happy New Year 2016!
