Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas. Oil painting on hardboard.

Lone man drinking and staring at Christmas greetings card.
Same colors used as for "Man behind the mirror" painting - red, black and white and I only have a low quality image, enhanced with Adobe Photoshop.

Man Behind the Mirror

Man behind the mirror. Oil painting on cardboard.

My oil painting from 1999. Three colors used - black, red and white. The original is somewhere at my mother's place back in Ukraine. My mother sent me this low quality image of this painting which I tried to enhance with Adobe Photoshop and make it to look as close to original as possible.
Painted in one of the dark periods in my life.

Isis and Anubis - 1997

Ink drawing of ancient Egyptian gods Isis, goddess of motherhood and fertility, and Anubis, guide of the deceased to the netherworld. Isis holds cow's head, which was stitched by the Thoth in place of her human head.

Veteran - 1997

Graphite and ink drawing of drinking disabled veteran. A little bit of photoshop for old paper look.

Dead Cat - 1996

Graphite pencil and Indian ink drawing of a cat I saw beside the road back in Ukraine. Made for rock band CD cover.

Crippled Homeless - 1998

Drawing of the crippled homeless drunk, wondered around central squares in Kyiv, Ukraine. Graphite pencil, Indian ink, pastel, sanguine.

Unfinished Drawing - 1998

Another unfinished drawing I made while listening a professor's speech in my university. Graphite, black ink. 1998.

Skull and Lizard - 1997

Unfinished drawing from 1997. I dont think Ill ever finish it. Dont even remember what was the idea.

Siamese Twins - 1997

One of my first sketches, done with graphite and black ink back in 1997. Inspired by Siamese Twins song (The Cure) and Edvard Munch's "The Scream". The "A" letter is missing and I decided not to change this in Photoshop.

As this is my first entry here, I named the blog after it.
