Postcard

July is a sad month

I found this video while browsing the YouTube. Nothing special, just a beautiful woman singing a traditional Bosnian song and playing a guitar. In her bathroom, mind you, probably to get better acoustics. The sadness in her voice made me think of the unfathomable torment Bosnian women were targeted with. And yet, they emerge pure and graceful, just like this anonymous lady in the video. Couldn't think of a better tribute.

More drawings coming up...

The Bowery Boyos

I omitted a window or two. I apologize.

Sly on guitar

I find Sylvester Stewart (a.k.a. Sly Stone) to be one of the most enigmatic rock stars. Back in the heydays, he could pack just about any venue he would tour (Medison Sq. Guarden, being just one of them), he would top the charts during the late 60s and early 70s, he is known to have exerted major influence on stellar performers of latter day, such as Stevie Wonder, Jackson 5, etc, AND YET, nowadays he remains largely forgotten. In addition, Sly was made infamous for his cocaine addiction that led to the band's (i.e., Sly and the Family Stone's) demise. However, the historical influence of this complicated man cannot be ignored; together with George Clinton and James Brown, Sly made a major contribution to forging a new musical style called Funk.

Here's a selection of his live performances on TV:

Unfinished portrait

So, as I said

To do a certain kind of thing, you need to be a certain kind of person.

To do a certain kind of thing

...you need to be a certain kind of person.

Distant Memories

Ingres

I did a master copy of my favorite painter's self-portrait. Again. Acrylics on canvas: my goal was to achieve the effect of oils by using the new medium.

Kaiser Wilhelm

An old Prussian flair this portrait has.

Fatty oils

Something I worked on last week.

Mmmm, yummy!

Chiaroscuro

I hope that some day I shall do my Vampire comic. This is just a sketch from it. Scripting seems to drag on. No time, I guess... Anyways, been reading this coffee table book on Noel Sickles art. One can really learn a lot from that guy. I wish comics nowadays had the same power.

Storyboarding

One of the storyboards I did for a TV commercial advertising a tasty little product. Hope it'll boost the brand image.

Happy Easter everyone.

Found This Easter Egg among scanned pictures from couple months ago.

A sad Lady

I finally photographed it with a more proper device.
