About Splash Illustracion

Las illustracions son un projècte personal realizat per Maria Bradovkova. Son objectiu èra de practicar sa creativitat e sa pensada abstracha. Son dessenhadas amb una tecnica tradicionala — tinta colorada sus papièr. Un giscle aleatòri de tinta èra lo punt de partida e l'inspiracion per cada illustracion. Observava la forma irregulara de l'aquarèla fins que vejava un indicci de figura dedins. Apondiguèt de detalhs amb un dessenh linear. La forma abstracha del giscle foguèt transformada en imatge figurativa. Cada dessenh mòstra un caractèr uman o animalièr diferent dins una atmosfèra sentimentala.
