Illustration Friday: Sail


In the last few months I've made several very important decisions. First of all, I've decided to devote myself full-time to making art. Second, I started my blog, then daily paintings, and now I've decided to join Illustration Friday. Why? Because if I were a member of something which is called Illustration Friday I could call myself an illustrator. I'm joking, of course. The answer is: because it sounds like a fun! Art + fun, the result must be something... I don't know... something at least, funny. So, this is my first entry for IF. It doesn't look much fun. I know. But I had a great time doing it.

Great stuff. Very nice!

Sandra said...

I agree with all the above. Also, this girl reminds me of you :) An attempt at a self-portrait, albeit unintentional / subconscious? Or is it just my imagination playing tricks?
