#58 8760 HOURS

Na slovenski kulturni dan, 8. februarja, je minilo natanko eno leto obstoja mojega bloga. O njem sem razmišljala že nekaj časa pred tem. V preteklosti sem imela že stran na Facebooku, ki je bila namenjena objavljanju mojih ilustracij. Želja po objavljanju risb je ostala tudi po tem, ko sem zapustila Facebook. Tako sem se lansko leto odločila, da poskusim z blogom. Na začetku sem objavljala več skic, potem pa so se zgodile določene spremembe v življenju in ostalo mi je nekoliko manj časa za ustvarjanje. Pa tudi če je bil čas, ni bilo vedno navdiha. Vseeno ostajam v blogerskem svetu in upam, da ostajaš z mano tudi ti. Vse najboljše Vespana!

// On the Slovenian national holiday, on 8th February, has passed exactly one year of the existence of my blog. I've been thinking about it for some time before that. In the past I had Facebook site, which was dedicated to publishing my illustrations. The desire to publish drawings remained even after I left Facebook. So I decided to try blog last year. At the beginning, I published sketches more often, then, there have been some changes in my life and it remained a little less time to create. And even if there was a time, there wasn't always inspiration. However, I remain in the blogging world, and I hope you stay with me too. Happy birthday, Vespana!

#57 NEW OPPORTUNITIES

Ves blišč in vznemirjenje po božiču in prehodu iz starega v novo leto je v večji meri za nami. Sledi počasno pospravljanje znakov tega obdobja. Sledi pospravljanje vseh lučk, okraskov in tudi sladkarij. Razmišljam, kako krut je pravzaprav prehod iz veselega decembra v turobni januar. Prehod se zgodi pričakovano, pa hkrati tako nenadno in kruto. Še včeraj smo doživljali pričakovanje in radost, danes pa že stopoma po sivem, od dežja mokrem asfaltu. In prav zares je siv. Za nameček čutimo še krivdo zaradi vseh stvari, ki jih nismo ali pa smo naredili lansko leto. Iz tega vidika se mi zdi postavljanje novoletnih zaobljub smiselno, čeprav sama tega zares nikoli nisem počela. Smiselno je, da si postavimo cilje, ki nas bodo lažje popeljali tja do pomladi in začetka poletja. Smiselno je, da se vprašamo, kaj si resnično želimo storiti. Smiselno je, da izstopimo iz tako priljubljene cone udobja in si postavimo izzive za novo leto oziroma prihajajoče obdobje. Dane so nam možnosti, da postanemo pogumnejši, iskrenejši, odločnejši, manj obtoževalni, bolj sprejemajoči, bolj pozitivni … Vsem vam želim, da sledite svojim željam in ciljem in da se zavedate, da je zgolj srce tisto, ki nam kaže pravo pot. Vse dobro v letu 2016!

// Throughout the glamour and excitement after Christmas and the transition from the old to the new year is largely behind us. Below is a slow cleaning all of the signs of that period. Followed by cleaning all the lights, decorations and candy. I'm thinking about how cruel it is actually a transition from merry December to gloomy January. The transition is expected to happen, but at the same time so sudden and brutal. Yesterday we experienced an expectation and joy, but today we are marching on the gray asphalt wet because of the rain. And indeed it is gray. On top we still feel guilty about all the things that you did not or we did last year. From this perspective, it seems to me reasonable to setting New Year's resolutions, although I haven't really ever done this. It makes sense to set goals that  will easily take us up to the spring and early summer. It is reasonable to ask ourselves what we really want to do. It is worthwhile to stand out as favorites comfort zone and put ourselves in the challenges for the new year and the upcoming period. We get the possibilities to become more courageous, sincere, assertive, less accusatory, more welcoming, and more positive ... I want all of you to follow your desires and goals and to realize that only the heart is the one who shows us the right path. All good in 2016!

#56 MERRY CHRISTMAS

Tu je del leta, ki je najbolj magičen. Med ljudmi vlada neka posebna energija. Zdi se mi, da smo bolj strpni drug do drugega, se imamo bolj radi in si bolj radodarno poklanjamo prijetne občutke. Edino, kar me v tem času resnično žalosti, so polni nakupovalni centri ljudi, ki mrzlično nakupujejo še zadnje malenkosti, za katere mislijo, da jih nujno potrebujejo.  Ali res potrebujemo vse to? Ali ni dovolj že to, da se imamo radi med seboj, da smo si naklonjeni in prijazni drug z drugim? Mar ni dovolj že samo čas, ki ga bomo preživeli z najbližjimi? Božič je čas, ko se lahko povezujemo, je čas za družino in usmeritev vase, v svoj notranji svet. Ves blišč in hitenje nam le kvari možnost umiritve in poglobitve vase. 25. december ima pomembno vlogo tudi v povezavi z našo najbližjo zvezdo, Soncem, saj se le to začne pomikati nazaj proti severu. Starodavne civilizacije so to pojmovale kot ponovno rojstvo Sonca. Ljudje so bili včasih veliko bolj povezani z naravo in so to zagotovo doživljali močneje. Današnji človek je oropan teh doživetij. Pravzaprav smo se jih oropali sami. Če le natančneje prisluhnemo in se nekoliko poglobimo vase, mislim, da lahko ponovno čutimo in živimo z naravo. Lep in miren božič ti želim!

// Here is the part of the year, which is the most magical. Among the people exist some special energy. It seems to me that we are more tolerant to each other, we love each other more and more generously give pleasant feelings to others. The only thing it makes me sad are shopping centers  full of people who shop with feverish haste until the last little things, they think that they desperately need. Do we really need all this? Is it not already enough that we love each other, that we are kind to and friendly with each other? Is it not enough just the time that we spend with loved ones? Christmas is a time when we can connect, it's time for our family and our focus on inner world. All the brilliance and haste  only ruin the possibility of slowdown and deepening in ourselves. December 25th  has an important role also in relation to our nearest star, the Sun, because it just starts to move back to north. Ancient civilizations understood that as the rebirth of the Sun. People were much more connected to nature and felt this changes more  powerful. Today's man is deprived of these experiences. In fact, we have robbed ourselves. If we only listen more accurately and slightly deepen in ourselves, I think we can feel and live with nature again. I wish you a beautiful and peaceful Christmas!

#55 SOMEONE LIKE YOU

Včasih nekateri ljudje vstopijo v naša življenja tako nepričakovano. Vstopijo tako usodno, da ti naenkrat pomenijo veliko, morda celo preveč. Prižgejo iskrice v naših najtemnejših delih, kjer je že nekaj časa vse temno in pusto. Ali se to zgodi zaradi vsakdanjega dolgčasa in rutine ali zaradi posebne energije, ki jo nosijo s sabo? Odgovora ne vem. V teh trenutkih se zgodi tisto nekaj, kar imamo vsi radi in si vsi želimo. Vsi si želimo biti ljubljeni, spoštovani in priznani s strani nekoga drugega. Občasno pa se ta sveža občutja (pre)hitro zaključijo. Takrat si želimo, da se to sploh ne bi zgodilo in bi se življenje vrnilo nazaj na stare tirnice. Hkrati pa se naše misli še vedno vračajo nazaj na te lepe trenutke in si te želijo spoznati še enkrat.

// Sometimes some people come in our lives so unexpectedly. They come in so fatal, and they suddenely mean a lot to you, maybe even too much. They light sparkles in the darkest parts of us, where everything is some time already dark and deserted. Is this happen beacaus of everyday monotony and rutine or beacuase of some special energy they have? I don't know the answer. But this moment give us something what we all love and wish. We all want to be loved, respected and being confessed by someone else. occasionally those beautiful fresh feelings end (too) soon.  Than we hope that this wouldn't happen and we want our life return back to the old track. But at the same time our thoughts keep return to those beautiful moments and want to meet you again. 

#54 PURPLE

Sprehajala sem se po mestu. Veseli december je že razodeval vse svoje čare. Žareče lučke sijejo z okoliških dreves in stavb. Nekaj lučk so spretni delavci postavili tudi nad trge in ulice. Vse je videti čarobno in pravljično. Iz majhnih lesenih hišic vije vonj po čaju in kuhanem vinu. Vonj cimeta, klinčkov in vsega sladkega. Opazujem ljudi. Videti so srečni, zadovoljni in veseli. Družijo se. Nekateri pari se držijo za roke, se poljubljajo in si v ušesa šepečejo besede, ki so namenjene samo drug drugemu. Nekateri so v družbi prijateljev. Veselo se pogovarjajo, obujajo skupne doživete trenutke in se na vsake toliko glasno zasmejijo v en glas. Morali so doživeti res nekaj lepega! Ko pogledam v izložbe vidim lučke v notranjosti trgovin, ljudi, ki se motajo med policami in oglase, kaj vse lahko kupimo svojim najbližjim in najdražjim. Ja, veseli december je v polnem zamahu! Na ulici zagledam tudi mlado žensko, ki se drži mladega moškega.  Lepo sta urejena in videti zaljubljena. Pri punci vidim, da je vijoličen plašček nekoliko preveč napet. Pod srcem nosi novo bitje, otročička, ki je sad njune ljubezni. Veseli me, da sta videti srečna, zadovoljna in zaljubljena drug v drugega in v življenje. Oči se jima svetijo od ponosa in vseh lučk v bližini. Pomislim na moje prijateljice, ki so rodile oziroma so že/še v pričakovanju. V mislih vsem, zaželim srečo, da so ljubljene in njihovi otročički zdravi. Sama pa vseeno pomislim, da zame še ni ta čas in bom raje nekaj časa še ostala v obliki v kateri sem sedaj.  Za druge občutke in trenutke imam še čas.

// I was walking down the street. Happy December already revealed all its charms. Glowing lights shining from the trees and buildings around me. Some of this Christmas lights and Christmas illuminations  are placed above the squares and streets. Skilled workers set all this beautiful images.  Everything seems magical and fairy. From small wooden houses meandering smell of tea and mulled wine. The smell of cinnamon, cloves, and all sweet. I'm watching people. They look satisfied and happy. They are hanging out. Some couples holding hands, kissing and whisper words in the ears,  that are intended only to each other. Some of people are in the group of friends. They are talking cheerful, restoring common experience, and every once they all together laugh loud. Probably they experienced something really nice! When I look through the shop window I see lights inside the stores, people who potter around the shelves and ads about what you can buy to your nearest and dearest. Yeah, happy December is in full swing! On the street I see a young woman who hold a young man. They are well-dressed  and I can feel love between them. I notice that girl's purple coat is a bit too tight. Under her heart grows a new creature, the baby, who  is the result of their love. I am pleased that they look happy, satisfied and in love with each other and with life. Them eyes shine with pride and from all the lights in the nearness. I think to all my girlfriends who gave birth or they  are already / still expecting. In my mind I wish everyone, good luck to be loved and their babies healthy. However I think that for me is not this time, yet.  I will rather stay in the "form" in which I am now . I have still time for this other feelings and moments. 

#53 TRUE COLOURS

V meglenih dneh, ki so bili stalnica zadnjih nekaj dni, ni bilo videti prav veliko barv. Vseeno pa zato ni potrebno, da smo tudi sami otožni in sivega razpoloženja. V kratkih in sivih dneh se lahko več posvetimo drug drugemu in sami sebi. Čas lahko namenimo tudi urejanju notranjih prostorov, še posebej, če v njih preživimo veliko časa.

Tokratna ilustracija je ilustracija modela z modne revije Victoria's Secret izpred nekaj let. Pritegnile so me barve in ljubkost. Kljub temu, da je precej gola (kako pa naj bi bilo drugače, če znamka predstavlja spodnje perilo), me spominja na hladne poznojesenske in zimske večere, ko se toplo oblečemo v pletena oblačila, se udobno namestimo na kavč s skodelico toplega čaja in se pogovarjamo z našimi bližnjimi.

// Last few days have been really foggy and we could't see a lot of colours. This doesn't necessary mean, that we are melanholic. In this short and grey days we should devote to each other and to ourselfs. We should spend some time for make tidy interior, too. I think this is pretty important, especially if we spend a lot of time in it.

This illustration represents a model from Victoria's Secret few years ago. I like the colours and prettiness. Although she is pretty naked (how could it be otherwise, if the trade mark presents underwear), reminds me of the cold late autumn and winter evenings, when we put on warm knitted clothes, find some comfortable position on the couch with a cup of hot tea and talk with our loved ones.

#52 WARM AUTUMN

Ne morem verjeti … Samo še 54 dni in tukaj bo 31. december in konec leta 2015. Danes je bilo tako sončno in toplo, da se mi najdaljša noč v letu sploh še ne zdi blizu. Letos je jesen zelo prijetna. Veliko je sončnih dni in tudi pretiranega mraza še ni bilo. Narava nas tokrat zelo počasi pripravlja na hladnejše dni. Barve jesenskega listja so se imele čas razkazati v vsej svoji razsežnosti. Tudi današnja objava je nekako v jesenskih barvah v videzu 60-ih let. Kadar raziskujem modo in trende preteklih časov, se vedno nekako ustavim v teh letih. Kroji so preprosti in ženstveni. Opaziti je veliko barv ali pa zgolj preproste črno-bele kombinacije. Še dobro, da se moda ponavlja.

// I can't believe … It's just 54 days to 31st of December and to the end of the year 2015. But today was really sunny and warm and it doesn't seem to me that the longest night of the year is so close. This year is autumn so pleasant. There were a lot of sunny days as well as real cold days haven't been there, yet. The nature preparing us really slowly to colder days. The colors of autumn leaves have had time to show in all dimensions. Also, today's announcement is somewhat in autumn colors and represent appearance of the 60's. When I explore fashion and trends of past times, I always stop in 60's. There were a lot of colours or only simple black and white styles. Thankfully the fashion repeats itself.

#51 HAPPY HALLOWEEN

V Sloveniji uradno ne praznujemo noči čarovnic. Seveda pa je vpliv globalizacije in hlepenje za vsem ameriškim prinesel tudi sem praznovanje tega dne/noči. Trgovine so polno založene z okrasnimi bučami iz različnih materialov, ostalimi okraski in seveda kostumi. Danes pa najbrž potekajo tudi številne zabave. Torej, vsem tistim, ki praznujete, veselo noč čarovnic!

// In our country, Slovenia, we don't celebrate Halloween officially. But of course the impact of globalization and yearn after all from US bring here this, too. Stores are fully stocked with decorative pumpkins of different materials, other Halloween decorations and of course, costumes. So, to all those who celebrate, happy Halloween!

#50 PINK AUTUMN

Da ni jesen samo rumena, oranžna, rdeča in rjava, sem ji dodala nekaj roza barve. Če imamo en kos oblačila tako poseben oziroma izstopajoč, kot je narisan plašč, je pomembno, da so ostala oblačila v bolj preprostih in umirjenih barvah. Črna skupaj z roza se mi zdi zelo klasična in preverjena kombinacija. Bolj živahno jesensko kombinacijo objavljam ravno pravi čas, saj prihajajo bolj sončni dnevi. Uživaj v jesenskem soncu, ogrni se v nekaj pisanega in natakni si očala skozi katera vidiš svet lepše.

// That there are not only yellow, orange, red and brown colours, I added some pink. If we have one piece, such as this pink coat, so special and outstanding, other clothing should be more simple and subdued colours. Black with pink seems to me pretty classic and checked combination. I have published this vivid autumn combination at the right time, because here comes the sun again. Enjoy the autumn sun, put on something gaily coloured and some glasses through which you see world more beautiful. 

#49 OCTOBER

Sem ena izmed tistih, ki ne marajo jeseni, ampak letos se je nekaj spremenilo. Pred nekaj dnevi sem gledala skozi okno, s skodelico sveže pripravljenega čaja v rokah in pogled mi je bil pravzaprav všeč. Bilo je megleno in nekaj drevesnih listov se je že odelo v rumene in oranžne tone. Prevel me je občutek udobja in topline. Priznati moram, da mi je za zdaj letošnja jesen všeč. Tudi v najinem stanovanju sem že poskrbela za jesensko okrasitev z nekaj bučami in jesenskim listjem. Nameravam kupiti tudi nekaj sveč z vonjem po cimetu, pomarančah ali kaj podobno jesenskega. Včeraj je bil tudi dan za risanje. Ilustracija je dodana spodaj, kot ponavadi. Všeč mi je ta kombinacija! Popolna se mi zdi za prave jesenske meglene dni, saj vanje prinese nekaj barve. Imej lepo soboto!

// I am not admirer of the autumn, but this year something has changed. Few days ago I was looking through the window with a cup of hot tea, and I liked the view. It was a foggy and some of the leaves were yellow and orange already. It was just give me the feeling of cosiness and warmth. So this days I actually like autumn so far. I did some autumn decorations in our flat, with pumpkins and colourful leaves. I'm going to buy some scented candles of cinnamon, orange and something like that. I don't know but I just like it this year. Yesterday was a day for drawing, too. I drew this illustration down below. I love this style! I find it perfect for foggy days, just to bring some colours in it. Have a beautiful Saturday!

#48 WE ARE ALL THE SAME

Večina ljudi se med sabo primerja. Druge ocenijo kot boljše ali slabše v primerjavi s sabo ali drugimi. Pogosti dejavnik primerjave je zunanjost. Ljudje opazujemo drug druge in razmišljamo in/ali komentiramo njihov tip telesne zgradbe, način oblačenja, pričesko, ličenje, obnašanje itd. Seznam je lahko neskončen. Redko kdo je takšen, ki tega ne počne. In edino tako je prav. Nihče nima pravice ocenjevati drugih po teh lastnostih. Pravzaprav ni nihče boljši in nihče slabši, ker smo si vsi med sabo zelo podobni. Žal so tudi teme pogovorov med ljudmi pogosto zgolj in samo o omenjenih stvareh. Več bi se morali pogovarjati o naših razmišljanjih, videnjih določenih stvari, ki se nam dogajajo, o naših občutkih in na sploh več o nas samih in naši osebni rasti in razvoju. Imamo se za zelo razvita bitja, pa tega žal ne dokazujemo prav pogosto.

// A lot of people compare oneself with others. They judge other people as better or worse then they see themselves. The main factor of comparison is often appearance. We observe each other and thinking about or comment their body type, style, hairstyle, make up, behaviour and so on. This list can be endless. There are only few of people who don't do this. And only this way is right. Nobody has the right to evaluate other for these attributes. As a matter of fact no one is better or worse, because we are all the same.  Unfortunately, the talks between human beings are often strict and purely on these things. We have to think and talk more about our thoughts, different aspects of the same theme, about our feelings and in general about us and our personal growth and development. We think, we are highly developed creatures, but unfortunately this is not proving very often.

#47 BLACK SWIMSUIT

Poletje se poslavlja, vendar ga še ni povsem konec. Z zavedanjem tega izkoriščam še zadnje dneve za misel na morje in kopalke. Črne kopalke so nekaj najbolj osnovnega, podobno kot mala črna oblekica, črne hlače in črni salonarji. Klasični kosi, ki nam navadno pridejo prav. Kako izpadejo pa je seveda odvisno od modela. Narisane kopalke so moderne, nekaj med eno- in dvodelnimi. Upam, da letos ujamem še kak topel dan za skok v kopalke.

// Summer is saying goodbye, but it's not completely over, yet. By being aware of that, I take advantage of the last days with thought to the sea and swimwear. Black swimsuits are some of the most basic wardrobe pieces, like the little black dress, black pants and black heels. Classic piece that usually get it right. How it looks is of course depending on the model. Drawn swimsuit is modern, something between one- and two-pieces swimsuit. I hope that I will catch at least one warm day to jump into swimwear this year.

#46 POSITIVE THINKING

Obstajajo ljudje, ki vedno razmišljajo pozitivno in obstaja druga skupina, ki pogosto vse vidi negativno. Sama sebe žal precej pogosto najdem v tej drugi skupini. To ni dobro ne zame niti za ljudi okrog mene. Osebe z večinoma negativnim razmišljanjem, si predstavljajo težave tam, kjer jih ni ali pa si predstavljajo težave večje, kot so v resnici. Pogosto vidijo negativne razplete situacij.  Po poslušanju nekaj TEDx govorov sem prišla tudi do spoznanja, da je veliko težje spremeniti negativno mišljenje v pozitivnega kot obratno. Obstaja pa rešitev. Če vsak dan razmislimo ali še bolje zapišemo dogodke, ki so se nam zdeli dobri in smo hvaležni za njih, lahko spremenimo svoje mišljenje in postanemo bolj pozitivni. Razlika je samo v tem ali gledamo na svet skozi črna očala ali pa raje posežemo po roza. Želim ti lep dan in ne pozabi biti pozitiven, saj dobro privlači dobro.

// There are people who always think positive and there is another group of people, who often sees things negative. Unfortunately, I find myself quite often in the second group.  This is not good for me nor for people around me. People with mainly negative thinking, see problems anywhere and imagine problems bigger than they really are. They often see negative disentanglement of the situation.  After listening to a few TEDx Talks I realize it is much harder to change negative thinking into the positive than vice versa. But there is a solution. If we think about or even better to write down events every day, which we see as positive and we are grateful for them, we can change our thinking and become more positive. The difference is only in this whether  we are looking at the world through black glasses or pink one. Have a nice day and don't forget to be positive, because good attract good. 

#45 SUMMER VIBES

Poletja še ni konec, zato bo na vrsti še kakšna poletno obarvana objava. Je pa res, da ne morem več zanikati, da se poletje bliža koncu, čeprav bi to zelo rada storila. Počasi prehajamo v hladnejšo polovico leta. Če bi se dalo, bi se v tem času preselila v toplejše kraje. Mogoče pa bom nekoč imela to možnost.

Jeseni pa se upiram tudi z risanjem deklet v kopalkah. Z njimi pride spomin na plažo, toplo sonce, šum morja in škržatov. Če bi bilo možno bi te občutke shranila v majhno stekleničko in vedno, ko bi pogrešala ta del leta, bi enostavno odprla stekleničko in prisluhnila. Najbrž bi se moja steklenička hitro spraznila.

The summer is not over yet, so that's why there are still going to be some summer posts on my blog. It is true, I can't deny anymore, the summer will be over soon, although I like to do this. We are getting slowly in the fresher half of the year. If I could, I would love to move to warmer places on Earth. Someday I might have opportunity to realize that wish.

I resist to autumn with drawing girls in swimming suits. With that kind of illustration I can get back the memories of the beach, warm sun, sound of sea and cicadas. If it is possible, i will collect this feelings into the bottle and always, when I will miss those times, I will simply open it and listen to them. My bottle would be probably empty soon.

#43 THREE COLOURS

Že za prejšnjo objavo sem narisala obleko Zuhaira Murada. Občutek sem imela, da to ni njegova prva in zadnja obleka, ki sem jo narisala. In res se je zgodilo. Narisala sem še eno. Obleka je preprostega kroja, pa vendar zelo posebna zaradi prepleta barv. Ko je koža rahlo porjavela od dotika sončnih žarkov pride še posebej do izraza. Vem, da pretirano izpostavljanje soncu ni preveč zdravo, vendar sem še vedno pristaš rahle obarvanosti. Zaradi temnejšega tena mi vse deluje lepše. Porjavelost me vedno spomni na najlepši del leta. Topli dnevi so za nami in pred nami pa tudi sonca ne manjka. Jaz sem zadovoljna!

// I already drew a dress by Zuhair Murad for the previous post. I had a feeling that this dress is not his first and last which I drew. And it really happened.  I drew one more. The dress is simple but at the same time very special because of the interwoven colours. When skin have a little tan from touch of the sun's rays the dress is express even more. I know that excessive exposure to the sun is not really healthy, but I am still adherent of slight suntan. Because of the darker skin all work more beautiful to me. Tanned skin always reminds me of the most beautiful part of the year. Warm days are behind and up to us and even the sun is not missing. I'm happy!

#42 LOVE ALL THE PIECES

Že nekaj časa nazaj sem opazila mojstrovine Zuhaira Murada. Zgodila se je ljubezen na prvi pogled. Všeč so mi njegovi couture in poročni kosi kot tudi stvaritve za vsak dan. Danes pa me je pot ponovno zanesla na njegovo stran in odločila sem se, da narišem nekaj njegovega. Všeč so mi vse njegove stvaritve, zato je bila odločitev precej težka. Odločila sem se za dvodelni set v barvi fuksije. Všeč mi je preprostost in eleganca. Želim si, da bi si lahko lastila vsaj nekaj njegovega in bi hkrati imela priložnost nositi tako lepa oblačila.

// I noticed a masterpieces of Zuhair Murad a while ago. It was a love at first sight. I love his couture and bridal pieces as well as ready-to-wear garment. Today I came back to his web page and I decided to draw something from his collections. I love all his creations so the decision which one to choose was pretty difficult. I decided for his two-pieces set in fuchsia colour. I like the simplicity and elegance. I wish I could have at least one of his pieces and at the same time have the opportunity to wear such a beautiful garment. 

#41 FIND THE TRUTH

Resnica ni vedno tisto, kar se nam zdi na prvi pogled. Včasih je potreben odmik sam vase in premislek o vsem, kar se nam dogaja. In ko ugotovimo, da ni vse tako, kot se nam je ves čas delo, je potreben premik. Potrebno je nekaj spremeniti, da lahko zaživimo tako, kot je najbolje za nas in za vse okrog. Otresti se moramo svojih starih načinov delovanja in začeti delovati drugače. Za svoje življenje smo odgovorni sami.

// The truth is not always like it seems at first sight. Sometimes it is necessary to withdraw into ourselves and reflect about everything what happening to us. When we find out that is not everything as we have always thought, it is time to move. It is necessary to change something, that we can begin to live as it is the best for us and anyone/anything around us. We have to get rid of our old way of functioning and begin to act in different way. We have life in our own hands. 

#40 NAVY BLUE

Kombinacija bele in mornarsko modre me vedno spomni na poletje in morje. Najbrž marsikdo asociira to kombinacijo enako, saj sta to tipični barvi, ki ju nosijo mornarji.

Današnja objava je že 40. po vrsti in blog bo praznoval 6 mesecev. Od takrat se je spremenilo kar nekaj stvari. Predvsem se pozna, da imam nekoliko manj časa za risanje. Ne želim se siliti v risanje, zato to počnem kadar imam čas in voljo. Še vedno želim, da to ostane dejavnost, ki jo imam rada in ki me osrečuje. Sedaj pa je čas za pobeg na sonce in prvi letošnji skok v morje. Uživaj!

// The combiantion of white and navy blue always reminds me of summertime and the sea. Probably many people associate this combination the same, because these two are the typical colours weared by sailors.

Today's announcement is the 40th in a row and the blog will celebrate 6 months. Since then quite a lot of things has changed. Above all, the biggest change is that I have a little less time to draw. I don't want to force myself to draw, so I do it when I have time and will. I still wish that making illustrations stays an activity which I love and which makes me happy. But now is time to escape in the sun and the first season's jump into the sea. Enjoy!

#39 SEXY BACK

Odprt hrbet na dolgi obleki mi je od nekdaj nekaj najlepšega. Pomembno je seveda tudi, kakšna ženska nosi takšno obleko. Zdi se mi, da so takšne obleke primerne za vitke ženske, ki so nekoliko višje. Zelo lepo se odprt hrbet poda tudi k obleki z dolgimi rokavi in puli ovratnikom. V vsakem primeru mora biti obleka dolga. Pri kratki obleki lahko hitro pride do preveč razgaljenosti, kar pa v večini situacij ni primerno. Narisana obleka je primerna za poročni dan, za nekoliko bolj moderne neveste.

// Open back with long dress seems to me something the most beautiful. It is important what type of woman wears such a dress. It seems to me, that open back dresses are the most suitable for slim women, who are a little taller. Open back is very pretty with long sleeves and turtle neck collar dresses. In any case, the dress should be long. With short dresses could easily lead to too much nudity, which is not appropriate in most situations. The drawn dress is suitable for the wedding day, for a bit more modern brides. 

#38 BLACK & WHITE

Tokrat je na vrsti klasična kombinacija s pridihom sedanjosti. Bela in črna je nekaj najbolj enostavnega in hkrati pogosto izpade zelo dobro. Pridih sedanjosti na tej ilustraciji so zagotovo široke hlačnice in volančki. Ostro pa vendar romantično. Hkrati pa tudi športno in predvsem nosljivo.

Danes je prvi poletni dan. Škoda, da tega ni bilo možno občutiti na temperaturah. Z današnjim dnem se je tudi dan začel krajšati. Ampak, ker je pred nami še celo poletje, ne bom bila negativno nastrojena. Lep nedeljski večer ti želim!

// This time I show you a classic combination with touch of present time. White and black combination is something the most simple and at the same time often turns out well. On this illustration the touch of these days are flare trousers and frills. Edgy but still romantic. At the same time it is sporty look and above all, wearable.

Today is the first day of summer. Unfortunately, we can't feel this with high temperatures. Today is also the day, when days are getting shorter. However, since there is still a whole summer, I will not be resentful. I wish you a nice Sunday evening!
