#Woland #МастериМаргарита #MikhailBulgakov #MichailLokšin #AugustDiehl #Wisesnail

A digital portrait of a Yevgeny Tsyganov and Yuliya Snigir as Master and Margerita, rendered with painterly, expressive brushstrokes and a muted color palette dominated by greens, pinks and creams. The man, with dark hair and a pensive expression, stands behind the woman, wrapping his arms around her. The woman has short dark hair and a gentle smile, looking slightly off-camera. Two bright halos are behind their heads.

These two make me so soft (*/▽＼*)

For the longest time I've been lowkey afraid of painting laughing people, because 1) teeth and 2) the skin does weird stuff that's super cute in real life but looked weird when I was painting it.

I'm working on a private commission, but that doesn't mean I didn't have the time for a little study in #Procreate of the #Master <;

Portrait of August Diehl as Woland from the 2024 adaption of The Master and Margarita. Woland is partly turned toward the viewer, and has a mischievous expression a slight smirk. A black halo surrounds Woland's head.

I won't stop until I make sure that as many people as possible know about this awesome film (and book) ✨

A digital painting of a August Diehl as Woland. He is wearing a dark coat and he is looking upward with a slight, knowing smile. He is framed by a black halo-like circle against a tan, textured background.

Today I'm a bit sad, so here's a Woland to cheer myself up ✨

Mandatory silly version included <;

A digital portrait of Yuliya Snigir as Margarita. She is looking over her shoulder with a calm gaze. She has dark, wavy hair styled in a vintage fashion and wears a deep blue and teal garment. A glowing white halo is behind her head and thin, vertical lines run across the entire canvas. The background is a textured, warm ochre, and the artist’s watermark 'WISESNAIL' is visible in the centre.

First post of 2026 (but not first painting, as I finished this one a few days ago) - let's set the mood for the year with this queen! ✨

I'm not sure it’s healthy how much I love Margarita (ꈍ ᴗ ꈍ✿)

Who wouldn't want to read/watch the Devil (this guy here by the way) visiting the officially atheist Soviet Union with his entourage? And learning about who the Master and Margarita are? ✨

Portrait of August Diehl and Yevgeny Tsyganov as Woland and Master from the 2024 adaption of The Master and Margarita. Woland is looking at Master with a mischievous expression, while Master is looking straight ahead, with empty eyes. A black halo surrounds Woland's head, and a white one, the Master's.

I'm still perfectly normal about this film, what are you talking about? This is me, Clo, the most normal snail in the world! ✨

Portrait of August Diehl as Woland. He is sitting on a star-shaped throne, with his legs crossed and holding a cane. He is looking at the viewer, smirking slightly. A black halo surrounds his head.

#MasterAndMargarita is one of my favourite books - and I didn't even know about the 2024 film! (Hello, I live under a rock)

I couldn't resist working on a pretty straigthforward portrait of #Woland... Possibly the first of many more, who knows! <;

People who think you can use terror are quite wrong. No, no, terror is useless, whatever its colour – white, red or even brown! Terror completely paralyses the nervous system.

@silvermansecurity.bsky.social While undoubtedly a monster of a man, I am fascinated by the relationship #Stalin had with various creatives. He virtually stalked #DmitriShostakovich & he actually phoned #MikhailBulgakov & spoke to him while banning #TheMasterandMargarita 🤷

What would your good do if evil didn't exist, and what would the earth look like if all the #shadows disappeared?

It may be just a story, but it's a good one lol!😁 #Stalin was weird when it came to the #arts IDK how else to put it. #DmitriShostakovich was in & out of favour for years. #MikhailBulgakov had the same. #Stalin actually phoned him to tell him he loved the book he wouldn't allow to be published!
