About Splash Yllustraasje

Yllustraasjes binne persoanlik projekt makke troch Maria Bradovkova. Har doel wie om har kreativiteit en abstrakt tinken te oefenjen. Se wurde tekene yn tradisjonele technyk - kleurde inket op papier. Willekeurige splash fan inket wie begjinpunt en ynspiraasje foar elke yllustraasje. Se observearre unregelmjittige foarm fan akwarel oant se in hint fan figuer yn seach. Se tafoege details mei lineêre tekening. Abstrakte foarm fan splash waard feroare yn figurative ôfbylding. Elke tekening toant ferskate minsklik as animalistysk karakter yn sentimintele stimming.
