Child in the bathtub

Hello, today my last but not least drawing from the set- the child in the bathtub. Unfortunately it is blurred (probably thanks to the cardboard). I don't feel like criticizing myself all over again. That's why I'll stop here not to 'contaminate" you with my remarks and sorrows. That's it more or less, bye.

Woman in a swimsuit

Today I present to you a picture done in ink and pastel. Luckily I found a photo in a shop leaflet and it attracted my attention straight away. On the basis of this I decided to prepare a drawing. I regret not shading black too much because it would give the feeling of depth. However, I particularly like the background which is like a bit of honey. Maybe somebody may say that my work is of no importance, but I would say that it means a lot to me and it is joy and pleasure. It worries me that I have to devote much work in order to attract viwers to my site on flickr for example (by the way they are particularly in favour of nudes) but that's life and I don't do this for admiration but for self development. That's it more or less. Have a good time. Ela

Woman doing her make up

Today is special because I 've made some contacts with people and it made me feel happy about it. (It's strange because I used to think of myself as a solitaire). As far as my drawing is concerned I'm fascinated by make up and its presence in other cultures. It makes the woman as well as the man more desirable to the members of the opposite sex. I think of creating a set of pictures presenting different types of make up but I have to think it over. Here is a typical woman toying with her make up. Its interesting and in general you can always find something curious about a painting. That's it. Thanks for devoting your time, bye.

Woman in a black hat

This picture is done in black ink and pastel. Though it is decent, it shows a nice gesture which is seductive and it makes you think that the woman is about to undress. In general (as many photographers may admit) there are acts which are seductive and perversive not necessarily showing the nakedness. And I like them most. Here is a posture which is nice. I know it's strange but I can't find words to express what I really feel about this drawing. Maybe next time. Bye

Tear

Sometimes I long for words to express exactly what I want to say. Maybe it because I still crawl in English. This picture I called "tear". It shows the study of face and to me it is beautiful. It's done in ink and pastel. Though it looks like a big one , the picture is actually quite small. That's it more or less. Enjoy looking, Ela.

Woman clad in a peacock feather

Here I present a drawing which is luxurious in a way. The woman is naked and clad in a peacock feather only. Her face is additionally adorned in a beautiful make up. I like it. What do you think?

Nude4

As you know I relish the human body. Its curves and shapes. Sometimes a simple gesture can contribute to a beautiful nude act. As simple gesture as this one above. I'm privileged in a way that I own my own camera at last. Thanks to this invention I can take photos of whatever I like and frankly speaking I adore it. I feel sort of sad and disappointed that noone visits my blog but a blog is a kind of diary and what I do I do for myself only. Have a nice watching, Ela

Nude3

Basically I don't want to write about my drawing. It's nice, I mean the body, however the background is unsatisfactory. Maybe the cardboard is to blame for this. Its rough surface prevented me from applying even shades. I like each of my drawings, each of them change something and introduces something new. That's it more or less, Ela.

I've always imagined that to each post should be attached a sensible comment. In my opinion it was obligatory, but when I went through some blogs (no matter which ones because it's not of importance now) I saw that people played with their photos and comments. It turned out that it cannot necessarily be so that each day I have a hunch for comment. So I decided to stick to this unwritten rule and don't bother writing very long and pointless notes. Have a nice day, Ela.

Here is one of my amazing mandalas. Frankly speaking I don't know what comments to add. Maybe it's up to you how you perceive it. Let me know about it. Ela

You may feel kind of bored but I still feel like tormenting you with my abundant set of dahlias. I mentioned already that they are like living mandalas and provide energy with anyone. More than that, they are quite large and their energy radiates everywhere. I'm sort of confused that there are no comments on my blog and I think over an idea to extend it's main subject and add something additional for example books and my opinions on them. I'm afraid that it will be messy in a way, but I found out that blogs are like great diaries and people insert almost everything on them so why not to try. I'll see what I can do and will do my best to make the blog more interesting.

I achieved a great success drawing a big set of dahlias. I'm proud of it actually. In this way I learned how to differentiate them. Sometimes you can see a flicking light somewhere. This is because hair spray makes it look like it. I forgot to say that basically this is my new set of drawings after an interval lasting about 1 month or so. This is it more or less. This blog is a kind of cronicle but not of feelings but of my little achievements presented here. If you like it, let me know. Have a nice day, Ela.

A bunch of sunflowers

I have to admit something. Some time ago I received a commission from I would say a relative. Unfortunately, the commission was for sunflowers but it wasn't stated exactly how they would be arranged or how many of them should be on the drawing. Frankly speaking I copied them from the above picture. In my opinion they were the most successful. I didn't fetch the drawing yet. My big drawback is thinking over what would be the price. It's useless , because you're gonna get less or more than that. Usually you would get less and there's a big disappointment after that. More or less that's it. I wonder if you also like the drawing. Let me know, Ela.

One of the nude acts

Here is something typical from an advertisement. Sometimes I think it is necessary to draw something not so difficult in order to practise drawing itself. Often I choose easy subjects to learn without waiting for spectacular results. Just for learning and here is an example of such a drawing. I'm not so proud of it, though I think it helped me to achieve better results as far as drawing is concerned. Additionally, I'm proud of " the successful applying of shades". That's it. If you like it, let me know, Ela.

Beyonce sketch

This drawing is sort of cheesy-like. I don't know why I chose such a person to portray. It was sort of coincidence. My aim was to show the beauty and texture of the material, however it is not as impressive as it is. Maybe the reason is that red is hard to shade. It is striking and that's it more or less. I sometimes wonder why I insert my failure drawings on my blog. And the reason is that you can draw some conclusions from my mistakes. Besides, I strongly dislike criticizing oneself on the blog, for taking wrong photos and other staff. And here I want to praize myself at least for having the pleasure of drawing and aims to do that. There are lots of people who either can't or can't afford this. You who are watching and maybe reading my blog - have a nice time, bye.
