Photo for memory - Town - my dream!

Greetings, my friends! We have a great, clear day today. It's November already, but it's warm outside. I want to wish you a warm feeling on this day and a great weekend!

If you have already visited us, you know that I try to draw illustrations to the chapters of the Holy Scripture, the Bible. I'm not an artist, the desire to paint in me woke up recently. I am 45 years old and I have not painted for more than 30 years. As you understand, I don’t have the technique of drawing, but, I have a desire, and I try to make this desire the engine of my skills in drawing.

I draw miniatures on a sheet of A5 paper; this is half the usual sheet of paper for an A4 printer. A simple ballpoint with blue paste, that's all I use for drawings. This allows me to concentrate as much as possible on my work and not to make mistakes. I can not fix my mistakes, just wiping them with a rubber band. Everything, as in life, our mistakes cost us dearly.

I have published illustrations for the five chapters of the Book of Genesis.

Illustrations you can see by clicking on the links.

The fourth chapter of Genesis
The fifth chapter of Genesis

The further I go into the Holy Scriptures, the more characters become. This greatly complicated my task. I do not know how, or did not know how to draw people. I did not understand how to draw them. And, I'm a terrible portrait painter today.
I decided to arrange a training session for myself and began to draw plots where there are many different characters, many small details and many different people. I hope that this will help me to master some drawing skills.

I did not expect this, but, the first miniature gave the storyline for the second miniature, and the second miniature got its continuation.

So two miniatures on a theme - Town - my dream!

Town - my dream!
Fish day on the pier - Town - my dream!

I started by drawing a fair, in a city by the sea. A small port city where I would like to live with my family.

Then, we decided to look around in the city and went to the pier. It was a fish day. The smell of the sea, fish, the cries of gulls and a lot of impressions, became the plot of the second miniature.

I realized that I can make the most exciting journey in my life. I can make my dreams come true on paper. Make a lot of discoveries for yourself, meet a lot of interesting people. Yes, I will draw them, but, they appear not according to my whim.

Every time I take a pen in my hands, I don’t know yet what I’ll draw. One character follows another, all as in life. And it's very cool to live another life, even if it is drawn on a piece of paper.

So, we looked around the pier and it was time to return to the city.

I decided to photograph my family against the background of the city, which is located on a hill. The pier is left behind me.

I have already said that the portrait is not my forte, but if you don’t try to draw, then surely it will not work. This is my lovely wife and our children.

A fisherman with a fishing rod tells us that we are on the seashore.

If you carefully reviewed this drawing, then you saw one detail. I gave myself the storyline for the next picture.

On the supports that hold the pier, I drew mussels. They so often arrange their colonies. These are edible and very tasty clams. I eat them even raw. This is not an oyster, but delicious.

On the right side of the miniature, I drew catchers, or collectors, mussels. There will always be those who want to eat delicious clam.

Musicians and the postman, a few new characters. I worked as a postman in my childhood, during summer practice. I am familiar with the specifics of their work.

Old legless entertainer. He pleases passers-by with his music. He has no legs, but he does not give up! It will be interesting to know the story of his life.

Food shop and cafe. There are many on the quays in all countries.

Fire truck, passers-by and seller of hot dogs, new characters. The fire truck moves towards the fair, safety comes first.

Let me show you the place where the fire engine is moving. Where many people have gathered, anything can happen.

It looks like the background of the city.

People should drink water, the water tower is well located in the figure.

I never flew a helicopter. Let there be a new character - a helicopter. He appeared from behind the clock tower. This helicopter is on pantones, it is capable of landing on water.

This city is multinational. People of different nationalities and religions live peacefully in this city under the same sky. They are friendly and sociable.

Girl with balloons - there is a belief, if a girl dreams, it means that there will be a miracle in your life and your dreams will come true. Let it be a little symbol that our dreams will come true.

The result was such a miniature drawing. This is an illustration of my dreams and the dreams of my beloved family.

So the story of a small town got its continuation. I still do not know where my dreams will lead me, but I am sure that I will have many interesting, interesting people, landscapes and events.
