The reason is that I only draw, but I don’t learn. I’ve felt recently that my artistic progress is too slow.

The truth is that I needed a break for drawing to decide how to move on with my art. Maybe some of my lovely followers have noticed that I’ve not been very active lately in blogging.

It shows how many talented librarians work in the Tallinn Central Library. There were so many cool things in the exhibition: photographs, paintings, clothes, felted animals, knitted and embroidered things, woodwork, basketwork etc. It was so weird but as the same time exiting to see my pictures hanging in the wall. I also brought four of my pictures there. At the same time I was in the exhibition in Brussels, my library set up the exhibition about our library workers’ hobbies. Nothing special about this picture, but it is the FOX and do I really need the reason to share the picture of the fox? 😀 There cannot be too many foxes in one day, can it (and in one sentence also)? The second picture I want to share with you is the drawing of the red fox. The same character Mossbeard has a long soft moss beard, where beautiful red cowberries grow. The book is about the adventures of three peculiar little men: “the composed and close-to-nature Mossbeard, the irritable city dweller Halfshoe, and the sensitive poet Muff” ( ). It’s written by Eno Raud, who I consider as one of the best writer from Estonia and illustrated by the wonderful Edgar Valter.

I got the inspiration from one Estonian children’s book named Naksitrallid (to English it’s translated as Three Jolly Fellows). I had a plan to make the digital version of it, but haven’t done yet (and I’m not sure anymore if I ever do). Long time ago, in the beginning of the summer, we were talking about how she draw mostly animals and I mostly girls, so we made a deal to draw one old man. I drew it for one challenge I made with my friend Dorit (she is excellent with watercolours, take a look at her blog).

One picture I want to share with you is the old man with the beard full of berries. I have also start using more colour pencils recently. The speed was important factor, because in the exhibition we had to show many people how to do these and we had to do it quickly

Of course if you have done these as many as I have, you can produce them with lesser than a minute: They seem difficult and hard to do, but are really only few minutes work. One of my co-worker discovered interesting and very easy technique to do more complex mandalas.

Our exhibition was about digital drawing and we made the mandalas with the Inkscape, using Wacom Intuos Pro drawing tablets.ĭuring all this time I prepared for the exhibition and the time we were there (and even after that) I have done so many mandalas, that I think I have enough of them for the rest of my life. This was the interactive exhibition showcasing the top innovative digital exhibits from public libraries across the EU which held in the European Parliament during the 17-18 October.

And the reason I had to draw these is because during the Code Week our library participated in the exhibition Generation Code: Born at the Library. In the same post, where I wrote about how important the learning is, I also mentioned that I had to create mandalas because of my work. Of course you can’t learn language only by using the app, but it’s very good tool for keeping you motivated. Very helpful tool for me has been the Duolingo app. I also started learning one programming language Python in September and resumed my self study in Russian (it’s quite essential to know Russian if you live in Estonia). I hope that one day I pull myself together and complete it.īut my studies do not only include art. And I believe that this is the main reason why I left it unfinished. Because, now I see how little I knew about the program, when I drew my Prince picture. Especially my development in GIMP is what is worth mentioning. However, I have improved my skills in both Inkscape and GIMP. I admit I neglected my goal to “educate myself about basics of light and shadow and how colours work” almost immediately after setting the goal. Maybe you remember that in one of my latest posts I wrote that the key to become better artist is to learn. But I try to keep long story short and instead of writing a novel here I try to mention the most important things.įirst of all, I have studied a lot.

It has been long time and there are a lot I want to share with you. That means the last time I posted something here was 137 days ago.
