Created this burning flame character for this week's topic of Illustration Friday. The topic is "hot". So here's hot flame then. My idea was to recreate the movement of the flame with fluid, organic shapes.

Drew this raining umbrellas pattern for Illustration Friday. This week's topic is "umbrella". As always, I'm nearly late. Just nearly. My initial idea was for a vector image. Being short of time, I drew it in my favorite Procreate app instead.

Drew these watercolor green leaves. An abstract plant, something like that.

Eyes are a window to the soul. Not in her case, though. This pencil sketch is too blurry, but anyway.

This is a weird pink hand character drawn in Paper.

And some evil scary creature. Where it came from, I just don't know.

Finally, some colorful nerdy balloons. The mohawk is my favorite.

Did you know that universe is a snail? No? Me neither. Drew this space snail today for this week's Illustration Friday topic "Snail". Little time, quick and messy drawing, lots of mistakes. Anyway. :)

Here are some of my recent artworks which I made available as art prints and products at Society6 and Redbubble. First is this psychedelic eye illustration. It's bright, weird, fun and a little scary.

This cute little foxy loves to wear hair accessories and is particularly fun of flowers.

Drew this evil bug chef while thinking of my sister. She recently discovered her love for cooking. She also likes my bugs so I made this illustration in order to give her a present with it.

This image started as a doodle in Procreate. I love creating volume with shading and that's how it appeared.

Shiny pearls and flower

Some pink vampire lips with fangs. Created this fun pattern or the last Halloween.

Честита Баба Марта! За днес от мен - извънземна мартеница с антенки и рога. Айде да сте всички живи и здрави. :)



Today is one of The national holidays here. We give each other brooches made of white and red wool called "martenitsi". We wish good health for the whole year with them. I drew mine with alien antennae and horns because why not. :)
Here are all my sketches from the first week of February 2017. First, I drew this cute burning fire character in my Paper app.


I also sketched this flower in ink. Then added watercolor and was surprised to see that my favorite black pen had water soluble ink. Anyway, my mistake had fun results.

Later, there was a big sale at my Society6 store which inspired me to draw this watercolor sketch of the 40% and some leaves around. To be honest, Just felt like drawing and this was the thing that came up on that day.


Finally, some abstract swirls which I drew in Procreate. Lots of purple, heh.


Drew this watercolor sketch on one of January's topics -"plaid" for the challenge of Anika Starmer (Let's Make Patterns). Had a lot of fun layering the colors.

Drew this tiny sketch with fun and flowers in Procreate while my daughter was sleeping beside me. I am making a little animation from this image now. Will share it as soon as it is ready.

Some ice cones and snowflakes drawn again for one of the January topics of Anika's pattern challenge.

In this image I was experimenting with the watercolor tool in my Tayasui Sketches app. It's great.

Some eyes here and there... Drew this pattern in Paper. I draw a lot of freaky weird eyes recently.

Finally, here's a cute little bug drawn in ink. You can see the pencil marks from my little daughter over it. She drew, too. :)

This Valentine's Day I drew a watercolor heart for my husband and for each of my kids. Made a card with the big one. The three little ones I cut and gave to the girls. The older kids put them on the back of their phone cases. :)

Hadn't drawn a snowflake in a while. Drew it very quickly with my favorite blue and pink watercolor paints. Winter is a big inspiration, especially with the heavy snowfalls recently.

Sketched some leaves, too. This is one of my favorite shapes. I love to draw it and fill it with whatever. This time I tested my new watercolor paints. I used my kids paints before. There is a great difference, indeed. The colors are very bright and I use a lot less paint for the same color intensity. This drawing was all about contrast in color and texture.

And, lastly, just a fun flower. I would call it fire flower if it existed. Had some fun with yellow in orange.

My friends gave me this very cool white ink pen along with a sketchpad with black paper. They are so cool! So I sketched these abstract flowers, some snowflakes and two fat letters with decorative ornaments.

I used green and purple for this plant sketch. Had great fun drawing these big blocks of color. They make me happy.

Another weird eye. Mixed media. Big mix actually. There is pencil, watercolors, black and white ink on this tiny drawing.

Made some experiments with dry leaves and watercolors. I had this idea from the autumn so I picked up some beautiful leaves and let them dry. Drew on them with the purple I had mixed. Put the leaf on the paper where it left some beautiful spots. Then added some black ink for the veins. Painted the background. Looked at it and saw that I just had to add more color so I did.

This is just a random imaginary plant. Drew it with watercolor pencil and watercolor paint. Underdeveloped, especially on the top. I like the green leaves, though.


Here's some watermelon. I miss summer a lot. I accidentally made a color which reminded me of watermelon so I drew the slice. It was on a big sheet of paper where my little daughter scribbled. So I cut it and placed it on a sheet which I had painted in this blue color. Nice color combo, I thought.

Finally, some warm colors in the cold winter days. Snow is falling right now here so I needed some yellow and orange. Added splashes of blue to freshen it a little. Drew this abstract leaves pattern in Paper by Fifty Three.

For a long time I wanted to participate in Illustration Friday's topic of the week. And week after week I didn't do it. Not this time, though. Strange haircut, cold colors and flowers - here is my illustration for "swirls":

An abstract plant. Messy doodle. I wanted it to be such.


Drew this pepper plant in my Sketches app. I love the watercolor tool there. It is a lovely tiny plant grown by my mother-in-law. But the time I write this, there is another red pepper growing on it. :)
