Day 7 : LOST When Ylia was sent to the earth she had to travel on board of her space-disc for very long time, passing stars, galaxies and planets. For a moment she had to stop in the middle of the Universe because she felt lost. She had to think what direction was right to take and if she really wanted to land on Earth.
Day 6 : HIDDEN Ylia love life in every form and shape. She enjoy to walk in the wood and in the mist, between the gigantic tall trees. She love to look for hidden places and sometimes she met lovely little creature hiding into the wood.
Day 5 : SAD
Sometimes after all the actions of her life Ylia like to stop everything and go to have some time alone. She find a spot and looking at the beautiful moon in the darkest sky she feel like she can touch the stars letting the sadness of the moment dissolve.
Day 4 : HUNGRY
When Ylia arrived to this world she discovered that humans eat all kind of food, some are good and some are not so good to maintain her superpowerful health, nature offer so much good fresh food, but once in a while when she is hungry she loves to eat some good homemade pizza.
Day 3: COLLECT
Ylia love to be free in the nature of this Earth. She is inspired, amused and amazed by the oceans and seas, she feel in her element walking on the shore in every season listening the beautiful sound of the breaking weaves and breathing the restoring air. She collect seashells and listen to their stories of millions of years.
Today I am late to post Day 3 I wasn’t at home. I was able to finish my drawing on time earlier just unable to post it and also if right now is late at night I post it anyway. I enjoyed very much to create Day 3 “Collect” another creative image for my character Ylia and because I love seashells! I hope that you like it too I will post Day #4 later on today! This challenge is amazing I have read from Jake Parker Instagram that there is a great response more that 200,000 of artists are posting every day! I am happy and proud to be part of this ❤

Today I like to debut here and introduce you my latest watercolor painting the title is “Night And Day” she is another creature from my “Mystic World Collection” I also wrote a poem to tell her beautiful story.
When the sun rise
she emits powerful rays of sunshine,
joy and merriment
sending warm feelings of love through the light
and a breeze
move the petals of a sunflower sending sunshine to the world.
When is twilight
she brings glowing light from the sky when
her other half is below the horizon
her rays of sunshine become refraction and scattering
she emits rays of love into a universal light
illuminating the Earth until dusk
she blows stars in the wind welcoming the night.

Today I like to introduce you my latest watercolor painting and creation she is Azur a creature from a Mystic World, she comes from a place where everything is beautiful and peaceful like a dream. A place of art where creativity and fantasy lead the way to a life of freedom and happiness. Azur beside to be alive in a watercolor painting she could be the main character in an illustrated story or a beautiful character in a computer game or more… The beautiful part is… that she can be whatever I create her to be! 😉
I often enjoy to paint completely out schemes and let my creativity flow like a river while holding my brushes and pens. I enjoy to create whimsical and ethereal faces or figures that seems to come out of a fairytale or dreamy world bringing happiness and joy.
This is Azur’s Mystic Portrait next would be nice to see her in full figure! What do you think? I love your comments ❤

This is Day #25/31 of the World Watercolor Month today I wanted to paint my watercolor on “Tomoe River” Paper a lightweight and ultra smooth paper from Japan. This is a very light weight paper only 52 gsm nothing like watercolor paper, it is so thin that is almost see through. This is a writers paper perfect for fountains pens and any kind of pens and pencils also markers because it doesn’t bleed through. The paper also holds beautifully light washes of watercolor. If you are familiar with the “Hobonichi Techo Planner” from Japan then you know that the amazing trendy planner that has followers all over the world is made out of this paper and is often used like an illustrated planner more like a sketchbook to illustrate the daily life! I love how the watercolor move freely and blend on the smooth magic thin paper. I painted these Poppy flowers straight with the watercolors without even trace them before. I also love the way the purple shadow turned out I outlined with the black ink pen but I wish I took a before picture it was beautiful also without the outline. I hope that you enjoyed my Day#25 in few hours I will post Day #26! ❤
