Picture: Popular belief

"In the East it is believed that birds do not know how to be sad, as awarded eternal freedom. When they are disappointed, then permanently fly in the sky. The higher the better. Fly with confidence that the wind will dry the tears, and rapid flight would bring them to new happiness.. People can learn a lot from birds. People have to learn to take off, even if the wings are broken. You just have to want - to get off the ground, soar towards yourself."

(Elchin Safarli, "Love from the bottom of the Bosphorus")

The drawing is made in pastel on the sketch gouache and colored ink on thick textured paper.Halftone colors change depending on the lighting.Pastel is on the verge between drawing and painting and requires very good lighting. Then the infinity of shades appears, the game of translucent layering. Best of all - the light of day, but diffused, falling on a tangent. In different lighting will produce completely different impression. A new beam or a different angle of view-and you will see new colors and details. It attracts and fascinates. The light pastel comes to life.
