Pastel: Artist at Work (2006)
Mixed technique on paper, 57×39 cm.
Character: Avalkis
Avalkis is an animal with the features of a deer and a dragon from my Springbringer fantasy world. The first sketch was drawn in a forest. I often find animals, creatures and beings in tree branches, stumps, leaves, clouds, puddles of water—in the fractals of nature and other random visual formations.
The colored one is is a pastel drawing. This is kind of a self-portrait in a way and my alias is Avalkis which I’m using as an artist name in certain publications such as music.
Drawing: Bull Fractal (2008)
A psychedelic bull constructed out of fire, The Sprite of Spring and a duck meet in a whirlpool of fractal. There is also a grand piano keyboard-headed slug with a moustache. Pen 70×50 cm.
Comic: Inner Light (2011)
Metamorphosis – a horse-like creature transforms into Generic Animal and finds his “inner light”. From the Apokryfia sketch books #8 Theta and #9 Iota.
Drawing: Furnica (1999)
Pablo Picasso‘s Guernica (1938) is one of my all-time favorite paintings.
I have made tons of pastiches and studies on it. Here is the very first from 1999: Furnica, pencil on parchment paper.
