Many thanks to @feli-on-ice.bsky.social for the clips, as I gave out all of my test prints in Tallinn... 😆💖✌️
A diploma for a skating competition. It features the words "Diplom za", which mean "Diploma for", the rest to be written in on-site. On the lower part of the piece, a castle is painted above a frozen lake.
Contrary to popular belief, I draw other kinds of skating aside from figure skating.
There is a competition in long-distance wild ice skating taking place this weekend at a water reservoir in Czechia, and I drew the diplomas for the winners! ✨️
The time has come! I am opening a pre-order form for a print run of the L'Apprenti sorcier storybook. ✨
The price is 22EUR, to cover printing and shipping. Any profit made will be donated to those affected by the crash of the 5342 flight on Jan 29th, 2025.
