A place far far away... Part 01

I've been away from the city for a couple of days. Time that helped me regain my energy, health and also inspiration for art. Believe or not the more projects I had the more inactive I got. And that really made me uncomfortable and depressive.
That is why my mom suggested I should take a break and leave the city. We both decided to take a trip to my grandma who's living in a village near my hometown. The place is entirely controlled by nature and everything is sooo wild and free. We even have remains of a medieval town nearby.

Today will be filled with pictures of nature and art. Hehe, it's a great combination. ^.^
I made couple of sketches inspired by the green scenery which I'm going to share in several posts, because just want to share all my photos with you (if it's only one post, will be too long and boring).
Here's a sneak peek:

Last week I found some really interesting paper while shopping for materials for my dissertation. It has very strange but intricate patterns on one side that can actually guide me during sketching.

I tried taking pictures of the process, but wasn't good at all because of the specific paper shade. So here are the latest versions. The two girls (expect more later) will be surrounded by flowers, but I have to buy white pencils first. Unfortunately I've lost my previous ones.

The second one got stained by a paint, but hopefully I'm going to cover that mistake with some gold pen later.

It's time for some of my favorite photos.
Hope you enjoy them as much as I do. ^.^

The road to our medieval town.

A little companion on the way... <3

And a small heaven by the river.

wow those sketches looking so good on that blue paper

Thank you, @edgarsart! I'm glad you like them! ^.^

I’ve been thinking about you, I am glad you are taking a good care of yourself despite the piles of work that you have to do. I like your sketches a lot, katchan, your ladies in this post look graceful and beautiful at the same time, a very good combination. And it’s been some time since you showed some photos, I like looking at them too. The place looks really nice and serene.

*hugs

Thank you so much, @scrawly! <3 <3 <3 Yeah, I had to take a break to replenish my energy. I was feeling down, because couldn't show anything new on Steemit. :(
I'm really glad you like the photos, all of them are made with my phone with some filter on Photoshop. ^.^'

I hope you are enjoying your time away, @katalinaooma <3 Recharging the spirit and body is important ! <3

These sketches on blue paper are very nice. The colour and texture of the paper gives the figures a slightly moody feel but when you add yellow /orange on to it, it really pops !

Would like to see more~

Thank you, Spidey! Yeah, it was necessary for me to the point when I couldn't draw (I didn't feel the motivation to draw for couple of days). But I'm back on track now and want to share so much more. ;) ^.^
I tried painting with a gold paint, but the photos didn't show it well. I'll make another post after I add brighter colors. ^.^

AHHHHH, the place looks so pretty and beautiful <3
i would like to go and go a visit too <3
specially that little house at the pretty river :D

and those paints very well done ^^
i love the expressions and how smooth the lines are <3

Thank you, @edanya! I'm so glad you like it! ^.^
I almost forgot how to draw traditionally, always looking for the ctrl+z combination... XD

Nice! Blue period @katalinaooma? Cool!

Hehe, yeah, it feels that way. Thanks, @organicfilms! ^.^

Resteemed of course! @katalinaooma!

Oh, thank you so much! Much appreciated! ^.^

I also enjoyed a really nice weekend in the country, stayed in a little town called Jardín (Garden), explored the wilderness around it and it was wonderful 💙

I'm glad you took time to recover yourself @katalinaooma, very beautiful place and your sketches are top notch! 💙🎨🎉

TY @veryspider for highlighting this post on c-squared 😊

Thank you, @melooo182! I'm glad you like them! ^.^
That's wonderful, we all need places like these from time to time. I'd like to see this beautiful Garden, have you taken any pictures? ^^

Yes my partner took tons of photos, I'll make a post showing them in a few days 😊

Woohoo, I'm sure this is going to be a wonderful post! ^.^

This is one lovely post @katalinaooma ♥️
I'm glad you took some break and had a great day!

Thank you, @adelair! It was truly an amazing trip! ^.^
