Well, right now i'm printing my diploma work (don't know how it's right to say). It's final work where I need to show all skills which i've got for six years of study. I've choosen color eatching, beacouse i'm totaly in love with this technique. I used three manners: etched bar, aquatint and soft ground. The diploma consists two parts, each consisting of 6 illustrations to the diffrent fairytales. At the moment I am the final stage, printing. Can't say that I am delighted with myself, but always be smug, too impossible. At least for the time again I learned a lot for myself about this amazing technique and its capabilities. Hope in the near future to lay out the result, and while I prepare hard to defend a diploma.

Где Родина,
Еду я на родину,
Пусть кричат уродина,
А она нам нравится,
Спящая красавица,
К сволочи доверчива,
А ну а к нам тра-ля-ля-ля-ля...(с) ДДТ

This unique and old technique stole my heart two years ago. And till now I make just a few steps to understand it! Because I think you can understand etching only on your own experience.
Already seven months I'm doing illustrations in color etching from three plates. This work as hard as fascinating.
Right now I want to finish my illustrations as soon as possible but have enough time to joy the work.
One of the illustrations is almost ready and I want to show it as soon as possible!

Start wearing purple for me now
All your sanity and wits, they will all vanish, I promise
