At the beginning I was drawing very easy pictures, like cartoons. Then I started learning how to draw people and animals in pencil, I told about this in my previous posts about drawing.

When I was absolutely sure, that I can draw in pencil, I started drawing in colour. I also mix technics – drawing in pencil and in watercolours. My first picture in colour was “A cat in the space”, I like this picture, because it has nice shadows and mixed colours. There were flowers on the second picture. I don’t like it picture very much, but still it is also nice. I called the third picture “It’s alive”. I took a stereotype image from horror movies. For example, when someone sees a skeleton moving he cries: “It’s alive!”. I like this picture too. The fourth picture is a woman with the space in the hair. Now it is my favorite drawing because it has a deep meaning: the thoughts in our heads are countless as stars in space.

After this picture I understood that I can draw the space. Now I’m learning how to draw water. Once I finish I’ll show you.

Ksenia, I don't know what I like better: your pictures or their descriptions! They both have a voice. Your pictures are bold, and your texts are clear and sincere. Thank you for sharing! Edit your comment
