This page started as my digital workbook - I've posted everything that inspires me: photos, illustrations, quotes, links which could be seeds for for future researches, themes for photo-shoots, sketchy drawings. Now it turned more into personal page. So overall it's a mixture of both. Check my Poster-a-day challenge: http://papajka.tumblr.com/tagged/foamoftheday

ART RETREAT - our new drawing challenge!

Once in every 3 days me and Zhanna are going to produce an illustration using different online tutorials, trying new techniques and styles.

Day 0 (warm-up): http://www.zoepiel.com/tutorials/watercolor/

I haven't got much time for this one so I have tried the technique rather quickly. Failed to install NKS5 on my Photoshop (latest NKS5 version is not compatible with latest Photoshop). Idea for the future: how to simulate ink pen?

Last day of our challenge, and that is the main and most important outcome. Let the journey continue! :)
