Last November I have collaborated with the Rigna Folk creating a video displaying a selection of my recent paintings having as soundtrack one of their beautiful songs.
If you follow me maybe you remember my Blog post, if you are new you can read it here:
Today I am very happy to share this video – Slide Show that I have created! I love how it turned out and I hope that you all like it!

A special Thank you, goes to the Band RiGNA FOLK for the great idea and suggestion to me, to create this video as combination of their music with my art. And I am honored that they let me use their beautiful music as soundtrack to my paintings! Thank you so much Viktor Nordir.
Who follows me for longer time knows that I love music, but also that I have a very specific and not so commercial taste and I love to introduce you with the bands I like or discover! I also have posted here on the Blog experiences attending live concerts, Interviews with independent artists and videos! I like to use my Art collaborating with music artists. I have created paintings and portraits dedicated to music artists as Fan Art! My collection is named “Art For Music” as an independent artist myself, I love when we can support each other or I can support someone else dream.
This video happened magically while replying each other comments on Instagram!
Viktor, frontmen of the band had this idea, while commenting on my recent paintings and I found it to be a awesome idea that I had to bring it alive!
I think the song I chose is “Zone II” from their album “Astropolis” and it match greatly with my Art.
On the Rigna Folk website you can read their Blog Post about this: Collaboration with two artists from the US and Macedonia
RiGNA FOLK is a band from Germany, we follow each other from a while now, I love their music and they love my art! I think is beautiful to cross paths!
RiGNA FOLK
They are a great indie band! I love their alternative, post rock music “Rigna Folk is a band that creates a parallel world. A rainy, dreamy world that, supported by music, is constantly changing and expanding: sound-painting like Sigur Rós, pictorially like Pink Floyd, as experimental as Radiohead”. They produced several Albums and their discography is growing more with a coming very soon new album!
Recently they performed a great cover “David Bowie, Space Oddity song” you can find it on their YouTube channel!
If you like this music genre, I really suggest you to check their music out!

Day #27 – This day prompts were Little Deviland Climb. I don’t really like to paint devil’s images, but I made this one more thinking at a horned ethereal creature like a fantasy fairy or game character the color red obviously was supposed to be!

Day #28 – This is my choice for the prompt Villain my painting is inspired by the Disney movie “Maleficent” and she is Angelina Jolie in her character!

This is the painting for Day 24 I made it on time and the same day posted on Instagram, I got busy and had not time to post it here, so today made an update with multiple Blog posts!♥️
This is my Moon man finally finished! In the end I added a dash of silver dust to it and give a beautiful effect! You can’t really see the glittery silver ink on this photo, but I took a mini video to show the glitter spark and post it on Instagram ! 🖤 I did straggle at first with this painting when I started yesterday. I wasn’t satisfied! I had to leave it alone for the night then this morning I got it! ♥️ I hope you guys like it!

This painting is inspired by the prompt Coffin and try to make it less creepy and more juicy! I decided to paint again my big eyes style Ms. Wednesday Addams, but this time she is doing meditation peacefully sit on a “Coffin” just to stay in the Halloween spirit… Namaste 🕉 btw I don’t think I ever seen the Addams family doing meditation especially Wednesday so my interpretation it is something different! 😉
Day #23 Coffin – Juicy
