Drama Llama
Let me tell you the story behind this Llama and what was my motivation to paint it.
Charlotte
Charlotte the chameleon was hungry. She ate a mosquito, a fly, two ephemeras and all the tiny midges she could reach with her tongue. But it wasn’t enough. I need to be creative, she thought. And started to dance. Immediately her chameleofollowers sent her dozens of likes and some of them were love bugs. Oh yummm! She saw some treats in it Feed her with your love bugs, don’t be greedy! This is my painting in mixed technique. It features 3D chameleon made with texture paste. Its eye is made of natural nephritis bead. (Swipe to the end to see some closeup photos of texture) Bright and quirky, it will…
Wild flowers for wild soul
“I’m tired” – she said. And closed the door. I need something different she thought while leaving the big flower shop which sold a gazillion colors of roses and tulips. My heart is wild, I don’t want tamed flowers in my room. “I’m looking for some really wild flowers” – she said in another shop. Are you the same?Do you love the intricate shapes of protea? The smell of eucalyptus? Are you bored with simple traditional bouquets?Then run in the protea fields, climb the tree and hug a koala, release yourself and remember who you are deep inside. Be wild. Be different. And when you want some rest, maybe… it’s…
Badger Stories
1. Sniffers Colder winds have come and brought a different song. Howling and screeching sounds were flying over the lonely forest. But what’s that? A sudden single beam had colored everything in gold and copper, and bronze and the funny sniffers appeared between the undergrowth.

My Story
I think it’s time to tell you more about what ideas stay behind my paintings. I paint to reflect my vision of beauty in nature objects. I love seeing the aesthetics in everyday life and show it through my artworks. I noticed that we tend to make projections of emotional states on animals’ and birds’ “face” expressions. I use this effect in my art. My characters reflect positive emotions to the viewer. I love to tell stories through my paintings. I’m inspired by garden and wild flowers, birds and animals, especially the exotic ones. Their vivid colors in unusual combinations are endless source of inspiration to me. In my acrylic…
What Owls say (part 1)
This is the first part of the story in progress, which will include several of my owl themed paintings (also this and this, and probably more of them.) “I’m small! I shouldn’t shouldn’t shouldn’t drink that bottle!” Screamed Sheila as she woke up in the morning and found herself not bigger than a kitten. The day before was her birthday and she received the mail with a tiny bottle with instructions to drink it before bedtime and her greatest wish will come true. What was the wish, you ask me. She craved for adventures, that’s for sure, but her biggest love were owls. She lived on her own in a…
Smart art or 5 things I love about vector illustration (the second one is just too ridiculous)
Imagine that you can take the smile of Mona Lisa, the curves of Venus de Milo, and the pearl earring from The Girl with Pearl Earring, and just throw them in an artsy blender and see what happens? Joking? I am not! 1) This is exactly how I feel and that’s what I LOVE about digital art – combining. I drew one wavy texture a while ago and was pretty pleased with it. I drew the seagulls for my bicyclcle pic and a lighthouse couple of weeks later as I wanted one for ages. I mixed them up and suddenly they all come together and shine like a gem! 2)…
