Our practices of art may be vastly different, but I just wanted to say yours is beautiful all the same.

Today I decided to make another ’inspiration of the day’ and share with you some artwork of the wonderful Ukrainian artist Katherine Shtanko. For the first time I saw her illustrations in early childhood in the book of Ukrainian folk tales 🫀🌺

ೄྀ࿐ Hello cherubs 🫀 My name is Anastasia or just Tasi, and I’m an aspiring visual artist. I like to draw and take pictures, and I want to share my passion with you on this blog. I usually draw inspiration from nature, vintage posters and illustrations, kitschy things and an early 1900s photography, but I don’t try to copy anyone and look for my own art-style. Music has a strong influence on my work, especially when it comes to a choice of a color palette, as I can see the colors of different tunes and instruments. The songs of Lana Del Rey, Mylène Farmer, Vivienne Mort and the Velvet Underground are often in my playlist.
I will try to post as much as I can, and I usually reblog on my second blog — @malerreblogs . There are drawings and photography that I found beautiful.
ೄྀ࿐ My personal aesthetics: brown/red/yellow/teal colors, studying about butterflies and other insects, listening to the violin music while drawing, admiring foggy and cloudy weather, collecting vintage things, drying and pressing flowers, reading Russian classics, being obsessed with red lipstick and red clothes, romanticizing my life 🦋🫀

Well, I wanted to have both autumnal trees and ducklings in my picture somehow.. ✨
This year my jack–o‘–lantern has a butterfly on its nose 🎃🦋
— Now Autumn's fire burns slowly along the woods and day by day the dead leaves fall and melt 🍂🐈
“What is life without my love?
What is life if thou are dead?
Eurydice! Eurydice!
Ah, hear me! Oh answer!
Oh answer!” 🫀🥀
