Drawing session

-



Recently I have had the opportunity to meet up with a friend from uni.



After an hour of walking around Manchester, she took me to the Nexus Art Cafe in Manchester. Link to the website right here.
I have to say that this is an amazing place. Good setting, a garden, loads of comfy chairs, good nibbles and warmth throughout the cafe.





If not for the conversation that I had with her while drawing, I would have surely fallen asleep, it was that nice in there. :P

Fiction and Reality

Intro: Okay, I believe that his post is way long overdue. As an apology I will publish three posts that I should have written during the past month. FICTION AND REALITY The first brief of my second year Illustration course was focusing on collaboration. Working with second year graphic design students, we were divided into groups of three and four. My group, called the ''Badman Crew'' (not my idea, I just went along with it), consisted of me, J and R. R was the graphics guy in our group. The topic of the project was Fiction and Reality. The aim was to make something that would border on the thin line between being fiction and reality. It was to engage and provide a deeper meaning, interest and create a sense of mystery and suspension.  The ''Badman Crew'' decided to work on the sense of fiction that the media sells us and the reality of what the media shows the public through their rosy colored glasses.  We went through a view complicated br...

Current Project

I am currently working on a children's book developed from an old Polish folk legend about a Golden Duck.  The short story follows a young poor shoemaker into finding a Golden Duck, who can make anyone rich, under certain condition, that they follow their rules.  In the end the legend talks about money not being the only important thing in the world, and that it won't bring anyone happiness unless you have someone to share it with.  The process of the book is still going, as although I have started in January, I went through a phase where I didn't enjoy my working method and decided to change it into a more mixed media of collage, watercolours and digital manipulation. I faced a brick wall when during a tutorial with my tutors I have been told that I need to change my font, because it just didn't fit the work.  So during the last week I had to create my own font and try to see how this one works with my work. The work is going quite s...

Poetic Comeback

 After many months of the pandemic work, I was able to catch a bit of a rest and sink myself into the task of writing poems.  I appreciate each and every feedback that I receive in regards to my poetry. My style and repetitive themes are not to everyone's liking , but I enjoy the ability and a chance of noting down my thoughts in this way. Using the available moment I have decided to share my poems with a wider public, therefore I have submitted three of my poems to the newest isse of ArtAscent magazine. ArtAscent website ArtAscent is an opportunity for indie writers and artists to show their works to a vast number of readers. A submission to this popular magazine is considered as a milestone for the upcoming artists and a way of reaching higher level of feedback for those who are established in the field.  Every two moths you have a chance at being published in the magazine via a themed call. Each theme is different and it depends on you, how you will respond to it....
