Description good looks.. full belly...
full belly.. good looks..
full belly..
and in a while you start wondering.. where are all the princes on the white steeds?.. where are all the cowboys?..
and then you start swear at society..at people... that THEY have no goals.. that they are empty bitches.. and that all the world is crap...

but look at yourself.. good looks.. full belly...
you go home.. open a magazine.. and there's nothing but stuff about good looks and filling belly with something new ... and you think it's ok.. it's ok that there's no princes.. ne steeds.. no cowboys...

and in the end you are just good looking belly with bunch of dreams... who has no idea that prince..or cowboy.. if he would saw you... well.. he would just have no intrest in a good looking belly like you..

Interesting to read your reason for this piece...and I know people always attribute their own feelings to art....this picture illustrates to me the 'modern womans struggle' as it were about career/baby, having to make the decision to do one or the other and what happens if you do both. Guess that says a lot about where my head is at right now but anyway, I love your style and how you're kind of illustrating life, it's something I'm working on right now.
Keep up the good work!

well.. it's not just my life.. i draw about what i see around me.. and what happens to me or my close ones...
and this pick isn't just about ladies.. it's alsow about this new breed of heterosesxual white males who coment on eachothers clothes and wonder if his best friend has started to pump iron
i gues it's just something that comes with consumer society.. we just forget that there's something under our skin too

Do you use a special brush for the lightnings?

you mean for those formations of light? well.. those are tree brushes i just take a photo of a leafeless tree with a sky as background and turn it into a brush.. and then with some rotation and patience i get the result.. some trees look good.. some don't.. it depends on artist i gues..
tho i always add after that some doted brushes for feeling of light.. and lately alsow white and yellow dots at 20 and 10 pts.. to add.. hehe.. i duno what it adds, but makes light look more farie-tale-like they just make the effect from doted brushes more strong i gues...

I see. Very cool to make tree brushes for that. I guess they are the same you use in your backgrounds?

yep..
it's just that for such simple things it takes more time while i find the right rotation for the brush...
but all my drawings are always made as simple as they can be.. most of them only by 3-4 brushes.. where 2 are used almost always..
tho the main thing i gues was to use doted brushes for digital drawings as continuing the pointilism traditions besides - that way they print better.. and you get to mix yellow and blue without it becoming green or at least i like to belive that as a colorblind person

I'm always curious about how it must be to be colorblind. I really can't imagine that.

it's just that some things you see as different colors.. but they might be seen as one...
to be honest.. i can't understand how a guy in weal chear can throw a damn ball so farr.. or how a person with no legs can run..
the amazing thing of human mind is the way we can adapt how we can change the way we deal with reality and trust me.. seeing all the colors sure don't make you a genious
