Story Teller

"Why are swallows my favorite birds?..I think they understand me, I love them, and they love me...They fly to me every spring, but if I have to leave, who will they fly to...?"🪺

"...In the center of the workshop stood the altar of a strange god, whose face was now unveiled. This god had received at his disposal the peonies that bloomed eternally on his canvas, several months of honest labor and devotion, and thanks to him, like an opening bud, a loving heart blossomed anew..."

The character belongs to River Spirit (VK).

Do you recognize him? :) This is Yakhont, just a little bit bigger) He is a bard, whom fate shook a little bit. I am in love with his appearance and I adore drawing tanned skin and red hair.

My ideal is something between realism and cartoon, but here there is an obvious attempt at realism. Also quite old art, from the time when I was learning to paint in oil. I'm not sure I can do it like this now, to be honest. This is one of my favorite and best drawings.

I'm from Russia, and the caption on the picture, "Солнце было в зените," and the year are the old names of the VKontakte group that I used to post my work in 2021.

It's an old enough art. Rigru is a merchant who can find anything you want (and the authorities don't like it). He'll get you anything you need, as long as you offer him a decent price.

I still can't capture his physique correctly, he looks like a girl here, but it's different in my head. Someday, I'll get better at this :)

Rigru has many amazing skills, and one of them is handling weapons.

Rigru (emphasis on I) - is also one of my favorite and old characters, which story connected with Yakhont. He is naughty, sarcastic and knows his own worth. I used to draw him here under the nickname "peach" and you may have seen drawings of him or my username somewhere :) I love him too, and I draw him often.

Peggy Puddlefoot is a character based on the Lord of the Rings, a cute little hobbit :) She appeared recently. I see her as a bit frivolous, kind and amorous girl with a lively personality.

This is one of my main and most favorite characters, Yakhont (emphasis on YA.) His story is the most detailed and it is based on it that the main comic is planned.
He's a real sweetheart, and he loves cornflowers, just like his mom.
Almost all art with him contains solar symbols or elements, in this case, this is not a crisis of ideas, but a conscious decision. I love him very much, I would like my work to be associated with his story to a greater extent. He contains all my favorite colors in his palette)
