The summer in England has almost gone, it was a good summer though, hot and sunny most of the time. Now comes the next thing to looking forward to : 120 days away from Christmas!
Bunny Sunday
Cross road
I once had a terrifying dream.
In the dream there was a old black man standing outside my house, he was wearing a brown coat and a hat, holding a old guitar, playing and humming some strange blues melody while staring at me. No matter at which side of the house, whenever I looked outside of the window,he was always there, humming. And there were strange orange light shooting out of his eyes.
I guess dreams could be pretty dark sometimes. This one particularly, left me a very strong impression...And there that's not where it ends. One year later I accidentally found out about the legend which Robert Johnson exchanged his soul with the devil for the blue skills at the Mississippi cross road. I know it was just some urban myth, but still the chill went through my body like a electric shock.
So I drew a painting about that experience. However by the time I finished it had become something quite different from my original idea. Nevertheless, I am still pleased with it.
Pet Tipi tent Illustration tutorial
Recently I made a Tipi tent for my cat. Originally I was thinking to make a real size one for myself as it was always one of my childhood dream, unfortunately I don't think there is any space left in the house, maybe in the future. Anyhow although this is a miniature version Tipi I still enjoyed the whole building process enormously and today I decided to drew an illustration tutorial for whoever would also like to give a try!
Summer
Summer almost arrived U.K., for the last few days the weather had been quite nice. However it usually only lasts for about 1 month so every sunny day is precious. When the sun is out any surface in the city with bit of grass will be packed with people. I remember when I was in uni some desperate local student dug a small tree out of the field just to get more space to sit under the sun ... poor tree.
Looking forward to go to the sea side some day later.
The ultimate summer element to me will be : chimes , water melon and maxi dress.
Sitting on the tatami mats, turn the fan on (hate AC) reading a book while eating ice cold water melon, on the background some music coming from the radio, maybe 70th classic or smooth jazz blue.
Ah ...my summer holiday best memory ever! ▰˘◡˘▰
