| [The beginning. I decided to create something BIG this time, kind of enlarged illustration. The theme I've chosen explores the relation between maternity and masochism, as I think, that decision to have and raise a child is self decided way to be tortured. Of course, there's some irony in this:] |
 |
| [At first I thought to make background similar to striped wall-covering, like putting 'mothers' in their home environment] |
 |
| [my workplace - my room. the drawing is hanged on the wall with paper tape.] |
 |
| [going further. my messy table, hehe] |
 |
| [close-up] |
 |
| [then I decided that the background is distracting the view too much, so I've over-painted it gray] |
 |
| [looks better, but needs some accents] |
 |
| [so I painted light blue/ sky-blue lines, which shows resemblance with bowels. I wanted to keep cold colouring] |
 |
| [evening. the lighting is not the best. I added the last accent - red ball in the mouth of the mother. My roommate said, that this ball reminds her Blutharsh clip] |
 |
| [FINISHED] |

Great drawing Shaltmira! Are many of your drawings on such a huge format?
However long that took, its worth it. Exquisite.
A fine piece of work! I like how the figures are sitting in a shape that reminds me of a pelvis, like in a boat.

I can't say how long.. From the beginning of this year I had this idea, and this peace of paper hanging on my wall, and time to time, I came and done something to it. sometimes I couldn't sleep, because I thought about what I could do better and so on. this drawing was kind of reminder that I should try, giving the impulse to try, it's good when they don't let you go.
