Skeleton King

Here, I wanted to combine rock album art with byzantine religious painting.
The main concept behind both works is the haloed portrait of a dead King-God.
I am not exactly happy with either.
Will probably do some more in order to reach my goal image.

Species Library

2010-08-27T18:37:00.005+03:00

I've long toyed with the idea of putting together a species library.
Okay, this is hardly a library, and I dont know if it is going to be continued.
but...
the main concept is that I illustrate every species's most dominant feature,
sort of create icons out of them.
In which case an Elk has huge horns and a fly is suspended in time.

Tunnel Vision

been drawing some new things lately, with a new way. I draw things that are around and away from the center, they behave more like frames. Then I cut them and use flatly painted surfaces or ready made coloured paper as background.
Also they are all (to some extent or trying to be) symmetrical. I figured theres something special about symmetry. As if it reflects the way the natural world behaves: with symmetry, but not quite. Cheap trick, I know, I just wanted to re-establish my aesthetics, find a center.

Bones

2010-03-03T19:34:00.005+02:00

I recently started teaching myself anatomy, and became quite fascinated by the structure of bones ( have not reached yet the tendons and muscles part of the book, which might be interesting aswell) what I love about bones is the logic (everything fits like legos), also, the way they look (no explanation required). It is a shame most art-schools no longer include it into their curriculum.

SIBONEY

2009-05-30T15:56:00.007+03:00

siboney is a poem
a poem for a place
where humans live free,
live in a dream.

Lyrics in english:

SIBONEY(E. Lecuona)

If you've been, in Havana you have heard a dreamy tune.
When you think, of Havana you recall this dreamy tune.

If you've danced in Havana you've caught its funny rhythm
that made your senses stray,
Night and day here's that tantalizing melody they play.

Siboney, that's the tune that they croon at you down Havana way,
Siboney, that's the dance that they dance at the cafe,

And that tune brings you dreams so it seems underneath the silver moon,
As they play Siboney, ev'ry care will fade away.
Fascinating, captivating, Siboney.

Matter and Memory

Bergson really does distinguish the spirit from the body, but as opposed to in Descartes' classical philosophy the distinction resides in the temporal domain, not in the spatial. The spirit is the abode of the past, the body of the present; the soul or spirit always anchored in the past, not residing in the present; lodged in the past and contemplating the present. To have or take conscience of anything, means looking at it from the viewpoint of the past, in light of the past. Contenting oneself with reacting to an external stimulus means being unconscious of the act; an existence within the sheer presence of the body. Consciousness means, invariably, delaying reaction to stimuli, the interval accompanied by the conscious awareness that the spirit is anchored within the past. One takes conscience while being anchored in the past, in light of the past, in view of appropriate action directed towards the immediate future. The articulation of time - past, present, future - finds place through the union of spirit and body. The more the spirit descends into the past, the more one becomes conscious. The more one acts automatically, the more one exists in the present, in the temporal domain of the body. And one always stays within one domain or the other. True awareness necessitates the united action of body and spirit. According to Bergson, the "impulsive person" suspends his consciousness and stays within the unreflective domain of automatism.

The Raven

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
`'Tis some visitor,' I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
Only this, and nothing more.'

Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December,
And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor.
Eagerly I wished the morrow; - vainly I had sought to borrow
From my books surcease of sorrow - sorrow for the lost Lenore -
For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Nameless here for evermore.

And the silken sad uncertain rustling of each purple curtain
Thrilled me - filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before;
So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating
`'Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door -
Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door; -
This it is, and nothing more,'

Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer,
`Sir,' said I, `or Madam, truly your forgiveness I implore;
But the fact is I was napping, and so gently you came rapping,
And so faintly you came tapping, tapping at my chamber door,
That I scarce was sure I heard you' - here I opened wide the door; -
Darkness there, and nothing more.

Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before
But the silence was unbroken, and the darkness gave no token,
And the only word there spoken was the whispered word, `Lenore!'
This I whispered, and an echo murmured back the word, `Lenore!'
Merely this and nothing more.

Back into the chamber turning, all my soul within me burning,
Soon again I heard a tapping somewhat louder than before.
`Surely,' said I, `surely that is something at my window lattice;
Let me see then, what thereat is, and this mystery explore -
Let my heart be still a moment and this mystery explore; -
'Tis the wind and nothing more!'

Open here I flung the shutter, when, with many a flirt and flutter,
In there stepped a stately raven of the saintly days of yore.
Not the least obeisance made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he;
But, with mien of lord or lady, perched above my chamber door -
Perched upon a bust of Pallas just above my chamber door -
Perched, and sat, and nothing more.

Then this ebony bird beguiling my sad fancy into smiling,
By the grave and stern decorum of the countenance it wore,
`Though thy crest be shorn and shaven, thou,' I said, `art sure no craven.
Ghastly grim and ancient raven wandering from the nightly shore -
Tell me what thy lordly name is on the Night's Plutonian shore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

Much I marvelled this ungainly fowl to hear discourse so plainly,
Though its answer little meaning - little relevancy bore;
For we cannot help agreeing that no living human being
Ever yet was blessed with seeing bird above his chamber door -
Bird or beast above the sculptured bust above his chamber door,
With such name as `Nevermore.'

But the raven, sitting lonely on the placid bust, spoke only,
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered - not a feather then he fluttered -
Till I scarcely more than muttered `Other friends have flown before -
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.'
Then the bird said, `Nevermore.'

Startled at the stillness broken by reply so aptly spoken,
`Doubtless,' said I, `what it utters is its only stock and store,
Caught from some unhappy master whom unmerciful disaster
Followed fast and followed faster till his songs one burden bore -
Till the dirges of his hope that melancholy burden bore
Of "Never-nevermore."'

But the raven still beguiling all my sad soul into smiling,
Straight I wheeled a cushioned seat in front of bird and bust and door;
Then, upon the velvet sinking, I betook myself to linking
Fancy unto fancy, thinking what this ominous bird of yore -
What this grim, ungainly, ghastly, gaunt, and ominous bird of yore
Meant in croaking `Nevermore.'

This I sat engaged in guessing, but no syllable expressing
To the fowl whose fiery eyes now burned into my bosom's core;
This and more I sat divining, with my head at ease reclining
On the cushion's velvet lining that the lamp-light gloated o'er,
But whose velvet violet lining with the lamp-light gloating o'er,
She shall press, ah, nevermore!

Then, methought, the air grew denser, perfumed from an unseen censer
Swung by Seraphim whose foot-falls tinkled on the tufted floor.
`Wretch,' I cried, `thy God hath lent thee - by these angels he has sent thee
Respite - respite and nepenthe from thy memories of Lenore!
Quaff, oh quaff this kind nepenthe, and forget this lost Lenore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil! -
Whether tempter sent, or whether tempest tossed thee here ashore,
Desolate yet all undaunted, on this desert land enchanted -
On this home by horror haunted - tell me truly, I implore -
Is there - is there balm in Gilead? - tell me - tell me, I implore!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Prophet!' said I, `thing of evil! - prophet still, if bird or devil!
By that Heaven that bends above us - by that God we both adore -
Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn,
It shall clasp a sainted maiden whom the angels named Lenore -
Clasp a rare and radiant maiden, whom the angels named Lenore?'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

`Be that word our sign of parting, bird or fiend!' I shrieked upstarting -
`Get thee back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore!
Leave no black plume as a token of that lie thy soul hath spoken!
Leave my loneliness unbroken! - quit the bust above my door!
Take thy beak from out my heart, and take thy form from off my door!'
Quoth the raven, `Nevermore.'

And the raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamp-light o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted - nevermore!

The Sorcerer's Apprentice

The Sorcerer's Apprentice

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

That old sorcerer has vanished
And for once has gone away!
Spirits called by him, now banished,
My commands shall soon obey.
Every step and saying
That he used, I know,
And with sprites obeying
My arts I will show.

Flow, flow onward
Stretches many
Spare not any
Water rushing,
Ever streaming fully downward
Toward the pool in current gushing.
Come, old broomstick, you are needed,
Take these rags and wrap them round you!
Long my orders you have heeded,
By my wishes now I've bound you.
Have two legs and stand,
And a head for you.
Run, and in your hand
Hold a bucket too.

Flow, flow onward
Stretches many,
Spare not any
Water rushing,
Ever streaming fully downward
Toward the pool in current gushing.
See him, toward the shore he's racing
There, he's at the stream already,
Back like lightning he is chasing,
Pouring water fast and steady.
Once again he hastens!
How the water spills,
How the water basins
Brimming full he fills!

Stop now, hear me!
Ample measure
Of your treasure
We have gotten!
Ah, I see it, dear me, dear me.
Master's word I have forgotten!
Ah, the word with which the master
Makes the broom a broom once more!
Ah, he runs and fetches faster!
Be a broomstick as before!
Ever new the torrents
That by him are fed,
Ah, a hundred currents
Pour upon my head!

No, no longer
Can I please him,
I will seize him!
That is spiteful!
My misgivings grow the stronger.
What a mien, his eyes how frightful!
Brood of hell, you're not a mortal!
Shall the entire house go under?
Over threshold over portal
Streams of water rush and thunder.
Broom accurst and mean,
Who will have his will,
Stick that you have been,
Once again stand still!

Can I never, Broom, appease you?
I will seize you,
Hold and whack you,
And your ancient wood
I'll sever,
With a whetted axe I'll crack you.
He returns, more water dragging!
Now I'll throw myself upon you!
Soon, 0 goblin, you'll be sagging.
Crash! The sharp axe has undone you.
What a good blow, truly!
There, he's split, I see.
Hope now rises newly,
And my breathing's free.

Woe betide me!
Both halves scurry
In a hurry,
Rise like towers
There beside me.
Help me, help, eternal powers!
Off they run, till wet and wetter
Hall and steps immersed are Iying.
What a flood that naught can fetter!
Lord and master, hear me crying! -
Ah, he comes excited.
Sir, my need is sore.
Spirits that I've cited
My commands ignore.

"To the lonely
Corner, broom!
Hear your doom.
As a spirit
When he wills, your master only
Calls you, then 'tis time to hear it."

This is a dream I had last night.
I have a feeling I remember more than this. When I was lying between sleep and awake there was so much more, but its gone now. Maybe it will come back to me when I least expect it. That happens.

I dive, its not too deep. Under the water, a yellow round object. I reach for it yet avoid it at the same time . I gasp for air so I stand up, the waters surface comes up to my waist. Standing there, I look around. Its nighttime, the sky is beautiful, cloudy and purple. A group of people mine hunting. We are all standing and diving in a straight line. The straight line indicates the point we cannot cross.

The mines are peculiar. Some of them let you get near them before going off. Others blow up, as if they smelled you intent from afar. Some explode in your hands and others cant seem to decide which range is theirs.
Come to think of it, they are like people.

A fearless man says he's found a way. He volunteers to teach the rest of us. Now we stand in line at the beach watching him as he walks along the line of mines, gently collecting each and everyone of them and placing them all together in his arms. He is smiling, but every step he takes makes us shiver with fear. No one is brave enough to help him.
We just stand in line and watch.

stop whispering, start shouting.

above your head,
noises,
voices,
shall I listen to this?
is this okay?
is this alright?
you have to be quiet if you want to keep your privacy
"tone your voice down or the neighbours might hear you"
I feel foolish now and irritatingly loud.
in the future we will be softer spoken people
successful
condensed.

in the end we 'll all go mute.

dream diary. no1

2007-10-07T20:49:00.000+03:00

Usualy I look down while i walk. I dunno why that is, but this is how my dream starts. Or at least, this is when I start remembering.
I am walking down some stairs. I take a look at my dress..thats funny..its white. These steps seem familiar. Like the ones leading to a beach back home. These too lead to a beach, but not the same one. This one is empty. The sea seems cold, sad, bitter. The clouds above it say the same thing. It seems impossible to determine what time of day it is.

Walking along, I see there is a bed where the water washes . Its white aswell, like the fairytale ones I dreamed of having when I was a kid. A group of women is gathered there. They seem to barely notice me. I have come back from a stroll. I rejoin them. The waves climb the sand right under our feet and under the bed at which we are seated, and then they wash away, revealing all the wonders below.

There is a hole in the sand. And as the wave pulls itself back into the ocean, there is little time to pick the octopuses. We pull them out, one at a time, hold them up, and put them aside. The octopuses are burning up as we remove them from the water. There is little struggle. Then another wave comes and we do the same.

Over and over again.

another stupid poem

2007-10-06T12:47:00.000+03:00

tonight the world spins in different direction
and a shiny serpant learns to fly

we were never meant to be together
but the universe is filled with flaws
and we 're wise enough to make it right
