Too Old to Rock n Roll, and Too Young to Die

The other day I was taking a long walk with my dog, listening to the radio. It was a good-old classic rock program, with some gems. But the song that caught my attention was Jethro Tull's "Too old to rock n roll, too young to die". This phrase made me think about myself - I am to old to party all night, yet still young enough... stuck in the middle in a way :)

This phrase made me reflect and think. I thought I could create a cool design that will honor the phrase, and its meaning.

The phrase was designed in retro style, which makes us feel like in an old rock bar. I wanted to pay a  respect to those decades. The letters blend with the guitar, and complete it.





You can purchase this design on my Redbubble shop, you can hang it on the wall, wear it, or carry it as a smartphone cover.


I definitely will create more classic rock designs, I'm sure that many songs and phrases that move me will touch others too...

Oh wait... here is the song that inspired me :



Have a wonderful day!

Johann Sebastian Bach - Pop Art

Hi there!

Have you heard about Johann Sebastian Fabulous? No? Well... you're going to meet him immediately :)

I just wanted to create an unusual Pop Art portrait of someone, who is not considered as a popular culture icon. And I thought that Johann Sebastian Bach, would fit perfectly for my little project. I mean... his wig and appearance is so epic, I wanted to make it even more fun.

First, I sketched his portrait quickly with Sketchbook - just to have something to work with.
Here is the rough quick sketch :


I kind of liked it, but I was focused on my goal.
I took this sketch and used Adobe Illustrator to vector it, tweak it a little and to color it like a human peacock.

After my treatment he has got California tan, and colorful feathers. Now he looked like a complete funky Diva :)

Check it out :

Isn't he super fabulous? :)

Look how good he looks on a pillow!


You can find this Pop Art portrait on many products (including Tshirts, posters, cell cases and more) on my Redbubble Store and on Zazzle.

Chem them out I'm sure you'll love them!

Have a colorful day!

Waiting in Vain - Digital Painting

Hi there!

Recently I purchased the new Sketchbook pro 7, it's a painting/sketching software, very intuitive and powerful. I doodled some stuff during the week, and then decided to do a digital painting with it.

I planned to paint a scene from a theater play, that I saw in an old photo. I wanted to create a bitter sweet romantic atmosphere, and yet minimalistic.

I called the painting - Waiting in Vain



If you like this painting, you can find the print on my Redbubble Store



I have a lot of beautiful exciting stuff waiting for you! Stay tuned, and have a great day :)

Blonde Ambition - Illustration

Hi there!

I never was a big fun of Adobe Illustrator. I tried it once but it was too illogical :P. Lately, after a long time of digital painting with Photoshop, I decided to give it another try. I was more careful, and studied only the essentials, that were needed for digital painting, and vector art. Luckily, I'm getting the hang of it, and now, it is easier for me to explore this software.

Here is a pop art illustration of a beautiful Nordic blonde, that I've created with Illustrator. I like it a lot, and it is already available at my Redbubble online store!

Take a look :



I already created more exciting illustration and I will post them later on, stay tuned!
