The ideal workplace if you are paid

Art Gallery is kind of unofficial internship for me)) Actually, I`m not obligated to do that, but somehow this has lots of benefits (without payment). First, of course, is practice. I try to work with children, try not to be afraid of them)) And I understood, I can manage with 3 calm children, but not screaming crowd of little imbeciles not interested in art cruel but true
But one thing why it`s ok with me to endure that - in this terrible heat I seat in perfectly breezy 240-year-old stone building.
And another my assignment as intern - work with historical costumes. Weeks of quiet sewing, labelling, inventory - I`m in Heaven! This work is just fow me, when nobody disturbs; just curator sometimes tells ineresting srories. And anytime I can go to the studio and make some art)))
And last but not least: my reward)) Work for food, so to speak)

Art gallery 0.1

I took a summerwork in the Art Gallery of my hometown... It`s a volunteering, actually, so I work for love of the art))))

One of the project my curator made up is about drums. She was given four blue drums recently - and she flashed with the idea of decoring these with dragons. I took two of them: smaller one with the korean dragon (they have four fingers), bigger - with the japanese dragon (four fingers). My corator made the chinese dragon.
She told me one legend, that Chinese think that dragons appeared in China and had five fingers. When they wanted to travel one country eastwards they lost one finger (with four fingers to Korea and three - to Japan), westwards - had one additional finger (thatš why they didn't go to Europe - it is uncomfortable to have too many fingers - and to America - two fingers are comfortless as well).



Here are some photos of the process: draw-cut-spray-clean

For you in full blossom



When I was in the Tallinn Zoo, I saw a tree. It was in the middle of May, but just in the moment I saw those blossoms I understood - Spring has begun. Or was it Summer? But still sooo fresh and bright and young))))

As for now, I've finished my second year in the university. Lucky me)))

Portrait Exam

Actually, I`m not very good at photography, but I like these ones.

Self-portrait tells: I am a female blanketed with clothes. I feel like I am a dummy. I am looked at like I am naked when somebody want something from me. I am looked through when I am useless.



And here is a fairy-tale about harsh daily routine of maiden princesses.

Fresco

First as it is again)))
Of course, it looks a bit creepy, but ... Oh, my Gods, am I always like that?



As my mother told, "You are veeery offended with the whole world here"
