we have a brand new month of this 'year of the Farmers protest' 2024 - new hopes and new projects  for me and my brushes & pens.
I would like to share some of my sketches and drawings done on real paper :) 

have not done watercolor in a long while - time to start doing more , this month and all

just playing with ballpen on the winged hussar theme

winged hussar or deli in making - there is a project on hussars and Swedes to me drawn and painted

I was looking at some Marek Szyszko's old illustrations and came up with my own boy ride - I am going to redraw this one and then do a watercolor for a friend 

I am going to do some Parthian drawings and illustrations

one of these days I am going to do some Heracles-themed sketches - lion pelt, bow, gorytus & his stone studded club

Today in Poland-EU they commemorate the Cursed  Soldiers of the post-War World II anti-communist struggle  - let us remember old Roman saying - vae victis!
