Last spring

Some photos of Toronto from last spring
I was walking to library that day and took these photos.

This place is North of Toronto (North York)

Illustration Friday: Impossibility

Do you believe mermaids exist? Or existed?

Or it's just believing the impossible?

Here is the work in progress :)

I did this with acrylic colors on paper.

And here is its print.
Just added to the shop.

Illustration Friday: Fleeting

Fleeting Gaze...

Digital illustration which I did around 3 years ago.

What she is wearing has the elements of old Persian outfits.

This illustartion is a part of Rissmoon's website, if you

mouse over her hands and her Tanbour (Persian Lute)

you can see some hidden animations.
Go here and try it yourself!

The print of this illustration is also available in my
other store: PersianGarden.etsy.com

Thank you very much for stopping by and leaving

lovely comments!

They are so encouraging :)

Illustration Friday: Talisman

Watercolor, colored pencils and pen on green paper.

If you've ever been to Turkey, you must have seen many of
these blue eyes!
These are called "nazar" and are protection against the evil

eye. My bamboo queen is using one of those to rest in peace!
You can read about Nazar here in Wikipedia.

I also have one little eye (Nazar) pendant!
I bought that in Iran when I was a teenager.

In Iran we use some special glazed pottery bead as talisman.
You can see it in the photo
(The big blue bead, hanging from that wall art)
This wall art is a gift from my lovely sister :)
Thank you Azadeh! I love it!

Illustration Friday: Poise

Have you ever had a curious cat that would gaze at you

when you try to concentrate? When we were kids we had a cat

and he really liked to interrupt us whenever he felt that he

was being ignored!

I've done this illustration with pen and watercolor on paper.

The poise is from a pretty photo in Shutterstock.
