A girl who doesn´t want to sleep

Yesterday was a really bad day, I felt horrible, everything went wrong...everyone has one of those days once in a while. It was past midnight and I still didn´t feel like going to sleep, my mind kept processing events of the day. I made my self a green tea, sat down, and at first checked facebook, twitter....then I just shut the computer down and took a pencil and a paper. The girl on a flying bed came back and literally started to entertain me. She was angry because she didn´t want to go to sleep as her mum told her, promised herself she´ll never fall asleep again and started to do several activities to keep her awake. Suddenly something weird happened, her bed started to move and when she bent over the bed she saw it was floating....Now she has a name-Tilly. And she really made my day:)

Thunderstorm

I was in the middle of making my premire sushi when a big thunderstorm broke out. It was hot and sunny whole morning so the sudden rain created that amazing scent of first rain drops touching overheated asphalt. Love that smell..they should turn it into some fragrance...Well, the point is, the storm inspired the picture above:)

Dirk Gently´s Holistic Detective Agency

I´ve just finished reading the book: Dirk Gently´s Holistic Detective Agency. It is amazing and I highly recommend it. There was one scene with the horse who appeared to be in the bathroom....it just caught my imagination and here´s the result.

Rain, Coffee, Books

It is saturday and after amazing late breakfast - yorkshire puddings with honey, strawberries and blackberries I am going to grab the book I read now- Douglas Adams: Dirk Gently´s Holistic Detective Agency and will head to Coffee Project to sit there, have a nice big cappuccino, read and occasionally observe the silent rain. That is the big plan for saturday- keep doing Dolce Far Niente!

Flying bed

These three images are the result of drawing automatism. I did them shortly before going to sleep.

Boats

There´s a beautiful channel in Edinburgh with all those colorful small boats, some of them are houses some of them turn into cafés during the weekend. I like to observe their interiors through the tiny windows...one of them has a kitchen by the window with copper pans and pots and italian coffee makers...I imagine how it is to live on a boat like that...and then comes the romantic vision of freedom, sailing the seas, discovering new islands....so yeah, that´s what inspired the picture above. And now I am off to get some fish for the dinner:D

Procrastination Process in Progress

I have just two more 3D, low- poly illustrations to complete. The deadline is in 8 days. I am NOT able to focus anymore and keep doing anything, but the 3D illustrations. One of my procrastination results is the illustration above. I think the more I am supposed to do 3D images the more I want to do analogue, ink and watercolor pictures. Guess it will work the other way around too.
