My latest idea is based on an image of the St. Basil’s Cathedral. It is a beautiful cathedral which I wanted to include in one of my illustrations using my favorite polar bear again and a “super – skinny” woman. I started the painting with a prisma color basis (left side – on top: my
“On Stage” This illustration is done in Mixed Media (colored pencils, acrylics) sketch – value study (while painting it I decided to go with a colorful background instead of the cloudy-white background in my value study)
The poster was designed to be used for different gigs – therefore, I left the bottom part (‘Music for Marinas’) simply white to give room for different announcements.
