Summer has arrived!

Do you remember THIS post by any chance?

Well, the summer is here - I am wearing sandals and I have been baring my legs in summer dresses the whole week! It has also arrived in a solid, printed version of another set of illustrations published in Twoj Styl magazine in Poland which my dear Mum sent to Scotland. So here we go, please have a look (when you click on the image it will appear bigger):

Hairy girl gets less hairy

The illustration from the previous post. As usual please click on it to see it bigger!

Long long time ago...

I am back from Lausanne after exciting several days and even meeting several of my idols! I had a good look at what was available in bd in Fnac and several other bookshops and my favourite choice was a book about Friedrich Nietzsche! However, back to what I was to write about - some new illustrations came out in print in Polish magazines. You might even remember my posts about them from long time ago:

This is just one of them and here is a chosen version in the Twoj Styl magazine:

June Beauties in print

My fantastic Mum has just sent me another packet with Twoj Styl and my illustrations in that magazine!

Sorry to be absent so often from blogging and drawing but this June is my graduation month and I will be off soon to the opening of my first important group exhibition in Switzerland! More about that here:

Meanwhile - the girls in print:

14 thousand pounds

If I had that kind of money to spend I would have got David Hockney's lithograph of green palms splashed against a shrimp-pink background from Open Eye Gallery in 34 Abercromby Place, Edinburgh. It was the only print that is left unsold and in my humble oppinion one of the most striking (though a portrait of a troubled Brooke Hopper from 1976 was very impressive as well) ones that feature in this mini exhibition. Go and have a look until Saturday 12th of June!

I used to do quite a lot of lithographs at some point and I wished I had access to the workshop here to do some more, helas! Nothing like that exists in Edinburgh. In case I am wrong, please drop me a line!

June beauties

A surprising heatweave was scalding Scotland for several days last week so I took the opportunity to slack a little bit with work and go to the beach with friends instead. They brought wetsuits and went for a swim while I aimed at a perfect Vettriano pose on the windswept shore scoffing some tasty barbaque.

We had tons of fun so now when it is raining I need to post a latest horoscope illustration for Twoj Styl's June issue - the Gemini:
