Swap, paws and cats

As you can see I dedicate less time for the posts on my blog but I don't want to neglect it so I will try to post the most important things that I've done/create.

One of the things is this drawing made with watercolors on A4 paper and it was a gift for a wonderful lady. She loved it, like she said :)

Then I've participate to Revista Atelierul swap and I've received a great gift from my special Santa, Roxana, you can see her beautifully jewellery here: http://www.facebook.com/UnaSiUna

Arabela from http://www.arabelastefania.blogspot.ro/ made a nice swap also and I couldn't resist to participate also because I just love swaps and this is what I receive. Thanks Arabela

And finally I made something that I've wished for a long time ago, a tattoo with the paw print of my precious dog Hera. I am so so excited about it, now she will be with me forever. Of course I didn't neglected Lili, and for the future it will be her paw on the another arm :)

Birman cat drawing and a new member in the house

 

Hei everyone, long time no see right? Well for now I am back with a new work made in watercolor and ink "Birman Cat" on A5 paper. I can say that this work is the starter of the new series of illustrations. So, more to come ;)

For a long time I wanted to present you our new member of the house, so this is Lili, a cute young female dog which I adopted from the shelter from where I work. From the firt day that I've saw her I just knew that she will be with me forever, it was love at first sight:)). I can say that Hera is the happiest because she have now a sister which she can play non stop.

Glory box and a small drawing

 

Finally I got a small part of time where I can post what I have done lately (somehow I am trying to save a little time for my hobby also, despite the most part of the time which is allocated to my wonderful job, Vet Doctor). 

Both of my works are actually presents for two beautiful friends of mine, one is a wooded box painted in acrylics and the other is a small draw in black ink.

Love in Prague



Yesterday I was in the mood for painting, actually for oil painting but I've realise that I don't have the black "colour" with me, so I had to work with other materials like acrylics and ink, which I did.
For long time ago I was thinking to do a work about Prague, beacuse this city inspire me so much and every part of the city has an art story, so I've decided to do this painting. It's a reproduction from Yuri Shevchuk, a great painter from Ukraine who lived for a long time in Prague. You can see throw his works many paintings with Prague and jazz musicians.

For this card I draw it with acrilics, black ink on chocolate paper and white burnt paper, and attached a saten ribbon!

My fist beagle ink drawing

Finally I've took some courage to paint my favorite dog, a beagle. I tell you the truth that I had some emotions painting this beacuse I've wanted for long time to have more drawings with beagles but I've always thought that I will not make it. So here it is, i maigh say that I am happy with it (when it comes to my "art" I am very severe with myself)

Tehnique: Black ink on A4 paper

Inspired by art print-art nouveau

I've just found some nice art prints on internet and got inspired by them. I like the fact that they have some "Art nouveau" print and for me it's just perfect 'cause i like all about art nouveau (painters, fashion, home deco, music...). The drawings are the same, in ink, this time black and red (i've just bought the red one..yey). I think in the next future all be doing more art nouveau drawings in my new taste in tehniques..ink painting!!

Hope you will enjoy them and there will be more coming soon!! Kisses!

Handmade in a box with a cat too!

Despite the fact that today was a real "three evil hours" Tuesday i found i real nice store with so many antiques stuff and I got this cute golden box with fairy vinatge detailes. I actually needed one and it was quite cheap..49 Kc..tham means 2 euros, and it's large to, so I can put all my handmade stuff there. If you can see i have handmade brands like " Kittenhood", VintageSH, "The art of Murmu, of course:)" and others...

After celebrating my new cute box i made a draw with the same tehnique like the last 2 drawings, SUMI E. It's a nasty cat!! Miauuu!!

Some of my works: Sumi e drawings

I wanted to make a surprise for a friend of mine that i knew he enjoys japanese culture and art so I've tried to make some specific japanese drawings called "sumi e" . I think you've already heard about them.

The drawings are in black ink and whater on A4 papper!! Hope you like them; my friend loved them but I think it's a matter of a friendship to pe nice:))))
