Hey, I've got some cute visuals for you with a special story actual for these days. It was an order from South Korean music band. When I lived in Khabarovsk (Far Eastern Russian city which is at +10 GMT) one night maybe at 2 or 3 am lady called me from the foreign number. She was trying to speak Russian with me but had so bad accent I've barely understood her. The only thing I've got they are from Korea and they want me to draw something. I said okay just send me an email with all the details.
That girl was a singer from Korean music band and somehow she learned Russian in University so she tried to describe everything they need in Russian. It was really cute and nice. Big respect to those who are learning foreign languages but after all we've gone English to simplify our interaction.
So they had an album released with their lullabies and they wanted me to draw a cover for that. They have this same tradition as we are in Russia: if you could not sleep you can start counting the sheeps. Just with your eyes closed imagine sheeps and start to count them. So they asked me to draw sheeps.
At the same time I've met my future wife Katya. She had a long flight to me from Saint Petersburg and because of jetlag she slept. I sit near full of love looking at her feets. She was sleeping. I was sitting quiet. Done this shots (second is a carpet on the floor). Then I've started to draw and found out I can add sheeps there.
So this illustration was born out of love. Then I've
added square CD layout and big round sleeping flying sheep in the air with hyerogliphs which I don't understand :)
They loved the sketch. I love it. She loved that. Everyone was happy.
So I've started to color it searching for the gamma. It was hard to find the right one.
This color is the new final from 2018.
And this one is from 2011. Approved by the client and printed. 7 years passed. We are 7 years together since that day. It was right in the beginning of March.
After few years one guy saw my illustrations and asked to print them on the canvas for his home interior. So he bought two illustrations of mine and put them on the wall. He sent me a pic.
