The famous duel between Jurko Bohun & Michał J. Wołodyjowski

Picture from a vintage Czech edition of H. Sienkiewicz's novel "With Fire and Sword" ("Ohněm a mečem"), published in Prague, 1926, illustrated by the great Czech artist, Věnceslav Černý (1865-1936).

Cossack with a banner

My little artwork because for quite a long time I haven't published any new Cossack Princess here. It was created using some really "mad" mixed techniques because I wanted to achieve the effect of a vintage postcard or poster: the basis of everything was a simple pencil sketch, then scanned and corrected (using the increasing contrast option), then printed on my old home printer and then "coloured" with watercolour pencils and tinted water-soluble graphite pencils, and, yes, also some white pen at the end.
