Movie Monday The House on the Edge of the Earth

Have a laugh!

Lullabies

There is a very interesting project on the horizon and truly hope it works out. I might be illustrating a book of lullabies for a Russian poet/singer. I am really enjoying the illustrations and the music that I work with. This is my first take/sketch on a song, will be listing the original on Etsy.

Movie Monday A bit of Jazz

Thanks Blair, this is lovely!

IF: Bicycle

I went through a period of painting bicycles and almost feeling like a true cyclist (before my bicycle got stolen:)) Here is a painting from back them

Another year, a bigger number

This year I am no longer fretting about the 3 in the beginning of the number. 31--sounds good.

I got lots of presents, a wonderful handmade card from Andrei, a sculpted dog from Anna and some lovely books from Arkadi (Fra Angelico's art book was my favorite, as well as a leather bound sketchbook). My Mom was visiting as well and it was very nice to see her on my Birthday, does not happen very often now. We are also getting ready for Easter and I am having a great time making pysanki , highly recommend to anyone who has not tried! (here is a link to a simple kit)

Movie Monday Gagarin

One of the best! Was nominated for an Oscar, and received the Golden Palm award in Cannes.

Family

We just watched the March of the Pinguins and the Winged Migration, I guess this piece was inspired by them.

Movie Monday Sheep

HEYAH "Owca" from Crunch Dog on Vimeo.

IF: Bottled

A little bottled world of mine

My favorite flowers

I got myself some flowers yesterday, I thought I knew what they were called, but apparently I don't since google search shows something very different when I type in the name. These are my favorite flowers. I really like how they bend down,sort of like swan necks:) The cats liked them too. It seems like they do not only look good, but also taste good. Alas, the cats will have to be content with their cat food.

Movie Monday Simon's Cat

I am becoming a cat person (despite all the proclamations that I like dogs more)

IF: Duet

True love should be like singing a duet for the rest of your life

This will be the season of cats

I have gone through a period of foxes, rabbits, hedgehogs and now it's cats. Not sure what makes me think of these particular animals , especially not sure what makes the difference in the order in which they appear.
But..Cats are bringing spring to our home. Cats are feeling jumpy and more active, and we humans follow.A few new cats...
(PS. I will be watermarking all my images from now on, and will be also redoing the website to include the images with a watermark. I have had a few unpleasant insidents of stealing lately and that makes me finally overcome the lazyness and add watermarks to all the photos I will be posting)

IF: Toy

Spring is here!

Feeling a bit lightheaded and happy for no apparent reason--just like this dog.

Movie Monday Rainy Town

Rainy just like here...
