Black sea coast at the dawn

I painted this as a gift to my mother (she grew a bit envious when she saw a painting for my father, so I made her one as well). I was raised by her nearby the Black sea and we often visited it during the summer therefore I chose it as a subject. It’s not any particular bay though the coastal line of the Black sea from Caucasus ridge’s side generally looks like it.  Sorry for the poor quality: at the time I had a rather lousy camera and now this painting is all the way down south at my mother’s.

“Emancipation” by some unknown Soviet artist

So, a while ago we were visiting a local pawn shop\flea market place\ used goods shop and found this gem. Inscription on the back told only the name of production company (”Saturn” which is? like, completely unknown), year (1986 or 1988, it was long ago) and the title of the picture.

Hell if I know what does it mean. And before recently, ahem, “rooster” wasn’t a term for the male genitals, being instead a sorta derogatory term used only in male prisons with implications about being at the bottom of the pecking (get it?) order and\or\implied as raped by other cell mates.I’m totally lost.

 Maybe you have some good theory about why this emancipated(?) woman is attacked by metamorphosed rooster-men(?) and has metall-organic(?!) tubing instead of knees with lamps which illuminate attackers(?)? Oh, and she has a rooster on a flag, too.

An apology in a comic form

Those’re more than a year old and, indeed, were done in an apology to my friend who also was a huge Undertale fan. I can’t remember what it was about but I remember how I was drawing those late at night. And yes, it was accepted. And Sans haven’t even eaten ‘em, which is good.

Ready for the Saint-Petersburg Pride

Drew a poster for today’s pride. As always with any events not from the state here’re some problems with site on the Mars’ Field but hopefully everything will go okay and my girlfriend and me won’t have to spend time in detention.  P.S. I’m not sure so if I really mixed up too much of symbols please write in PM or comments.

Triple check

Never trust your software or laptop battery when it has shown that it has some problems before. And especially don’t trust your self-confidence when it says you that it’s fine and nothing will go wrong. Always double check, better yet triple check your equipment.

Yesterday I was finishing up some artwork, I needed only to put some more details on the forefront, a bit more lights and shadows, it took just and hour of peaceful and careful work.Then I pushed save shortcut in photoshop and at the same moment my laptop went out. Now the file is corrupt and unreadible, I spent 4 hours yesterday, trying to fix it - and nothing. I tried a general recover software and it didn’t find nothing. Except for some dormant viruses from previous owner, I guess, my anti-virus soft was going nuts during the work of the recovery program.  I wasn’t making a backup copies, so now, I guess, I’m left with only that preparation sketch.

Though, there might be hope after all. In the morning I was able to recover this thumbnail of my artwork with all of my changes with a psd-recover software, but for now I stuck. 

Maybe I’ll be able to recover it properly, but the full version of this software (Stellar Phoenix PSD recover) was called the scam on the net and the free version can only do previews.And even though I felt devastated when I lost the work I’m not sure that I can afford to spend 39 $ just for a chance to recover it. If you have some ideas about and/or experience with solving such a problem - please, contact me and send in your advise, it’ll be welcomed. So, the moral of the story: folks, don’t overestimate your battery life and proper workings of battery alarm software and always do at least the triple check that everything fine.

P.S. This artwork was supposed to be an homage to Renoir’s painting “A bar at the  Folies-Bergère”, my favorite of his works, with the subject of Undertale’s character Grillby at his own establishment.
