Flowers and birds

I was travelling a lot during last week, therefore I was not able to work on my illustrations as much as I wanted to. So today just some flowery doodles before my next trip tomorrow.

Baranczak

I was extremely honoured to design covers for a new edition of Stanislaw Baranczak essays. Unfortunately the author and editor wanted something less flamboyant, more delicate, much simpler - so not quite in the style I have introduced. However I am still satisfied with the design (the name of the author was formed like a logo) and pictures which were created for the cover with the use of iconic Polish posters from the 50s and 60, courtesy of Mr Dydo Poster Gallery in Krakow.

Amy one more time

I really hope she will manage to sort out her life one day - even for the sake of not writing any more beautiful, sad songs.

HMS Illustrious

What a coincidence.

My Foreign Life

I have started working on the material for my first illustration exhibition in Edinburgh! Next months are going to be really busy!

The show is entitled 'My Foreign Life' and I hope that all the images will form a strong portfolio when shown together.

Amy is going to be a part of the bigger work featuring several British musicians.

Soft pastels with goggies

These two soft pastels were my b-day gifts for children of my partner. I did not have any brilliant ideas for gifts for two very intelligent 6 year olds so I came up with these two friendly doggies. I enlarged a detail of a white bullterrier - please click on the images to see them bigger.

P.S. The third soft pastel with a cat went to my parisian friend's daughter. I will try to make a reproduction of it when I am in Paris (somewhere in a very distant future).

P.S.2 The title of this post is not a spelling mistake. If you want to know why, have a look here!
