Zamyslenie nad vzájomnou pomocou a rebríčkami, kde nechcete byť

15. January 202115. January 2021 repikova 0 Comments Piestany, zamyslenia

Neverim, ze ludom je to jedno. Neverim, ze osobne pohodlie je viac ako zivot cloveka. Neverim, ze cloveku v nudzi nikto nepoda pomocnu ruku. Dufam, ze ta spolupatricnost a ochota pomoct tu este stale je. Ze ju za ten cas frustracia nevytlacila.

Days before Christmas have their own charm. The atmosphere and the vibe at the Christmas market adds to it. This year again I ventured to Vienna and enjoyed a walk along the market at Rathausplatz, Maria Theresia Platz and Karlsplatz. And got a pair of “boots” cups. 🙂

Teraz vám predstavím techniku Dry Brush, v doslovnom preklade “suchý štetec”. Je to veľmi jednoduchá technika a výsledky sú fakt skvelé.

Drawing: Dry brush

19. October 2017 Martina 0 Comments Drawings, Dry brush

I was surprised how easy it was to paint with a technique called dry brush. You use a “dry brush” on dry paper. There is only color on the brush, but you can tip it into a small amount of oil or water.

Photo: Strait of Hormuz, a busy waterway for oil and gas tankers

20. March 2017 Martina 0 Comments Biddiyah, Middle East, oil, tankers, UAE

This long oil and gas tanker traffic jam is off the coast of Fujairah emirate, near the Strait of Hormuz. Driving along the road from Dibba to Fujairah, we stopped to admire a very old mosque and a fortress in Biddiyah, when I saw this line of tankers on the sea. I could not stop watching and counting the vessels.

Day temperatures below -10C and falling below -20C during the night. That was the first decade of January 2017 in my hometown Piestany in Slovakia. For some, extremely cold. For others, not so.

Kreslenie: Konečne farby (Suchý pastel)

17. May 201626. October 2017 Martina 0 Comments Drawings, Dry Pastel, Text

Po zahriatí sa pastelkami som chcela odskúšať inú techniku. Farbičky sú síce fajn a nerobia bordel, ale farby sa mi nezdajú dosť výrazné. Ja by som strašne chcela obrázky s veľmi sýtymi farbami.

Moje obdobie obliekania čiernej sa skončilo po strednej, ale od “výšky” prešla na farby. Rovnako aj svoje počiatočné kresliace pokusy som začala čiernobielo a postupne prešla na farby.
