Dzeljka's art blog and projects

a bit of sketching in between work
i'd rly like to know if the background is almost black to most of ppl? my screen might be too bright

[dzeljka]

i am actually very happy about this small thing from last night, i rly focused on brushstrokes and shapes, and leaving out some shapes or merging them together
i went in with a bit of a traditionalist approach
hopefully i can put that into practice as well

this will be my warm up piece for the next couple of days, i want to render it completely in that manner and see how i handle fabrics

i'm preparing for some slavic inspired work soon

[dzeljka]

also, i other news, this is my work done for Suzanne Helmigh's novel Caldyra. I will be appearing as one of the guest artists there
I am very happy to be a part of it

I loooove the slavic inspired piece. Everything from the colors, the textures and her beautiful gaze is awesome! Great work on that one.

And congratulations for your work on the novel! The piece looks really good too. t makes for a nice book cover

[dzeljka]

thank you kindly!
It was a joy to work on both of those

[dzeljka]

woohoo!
is she a slavic dragon tamer?
lovely sketch

[dzeljka]

thanks!
Havent rly thought this trough, but i wouldn't say she is a dragon tamer or anything like that, i much rather prefer her being a regular hardworking girl who just happens to have a dragon
Maybe it helps her with work in the field? it would be interesting exploring all that

[dzeljka]

so work week began, and something new is cooking
I'll keep nibbling at this during the week, in the evenings

working on my child-----

lazy sunday sketching
anyone have an issue coming back to sketches and refining/polishing them? it's occurring more often in my case

[Mithrica]

I love the colours and how warm the inside of a tree is! Really good!

[dzeljka]

I'm so happy you like it! <3
it seems ppl are surprisingly drawn to that light inside

[dzeljka]

Study from couple of nights ago, with a focus on edges and more traditional feel

tho, tbh i was just procrastinating with this instead of going back to work that is pilling up ahah

[dzeljka]

quick study, under an hour, while watching Portrait artist of the year. I love those videos, it is so very british
but i also like British Cookie Bake off competition, so take my likes with a grain of salt

couple of movie stills studies
aiming for colors and mood with these
