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.

 HELLO!

I would like to begin my post with a question.

What do You see in the photo below?

I took this photo during the stroll in October 2025.

a figure with a book (Caserta)

 HELLO!

Recently I was working on the drawing. I treated it as a form of exercise. My main model was a photo showing one of the statues from the garden in the Royal Palace of Caserta in Italy. I'm not sure who was pictured in this sculpture (I suspect it might be allegory of something associated with wisdom, or a goddess). The picture I'm talking about You will find HERE.

So, I took a pencil, a brown paper, and started drawing.

Soon afterwards I was not only using pencil but also a white crayon.

HELLO!

So, You see, in September 2023 I put up a poem on my other blog. A poem was inspired by a fascinating sight - a green toy aeroplane got stuck in the cherry tree in someone's garden.

HERE You can read the poem in my mother tongue, its title is zielony samolocik. I thought it might be a good idea to translate this poem, and then turn it into a graphic being a part of "the Poetic Graphics".

Below there is a net result of my work.

As always a translation was quite a challenge for me.

 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.
