Socrates' last beverage

Знаменитый философ Сократ Был любого умней во сто крат. И за это народ (Горсть углей ему рот!) Повелел, чтобы умер Сократ.

А. Дубровский, 2011

Раздражение народа от поучений пытавшегося сделать его лучше Сократа вылилось в смертный приговор философу, по которому тот должен был выпить яд цикуты.

Prominent philosopher Socrates was smrter than anyone else. Because of that people ordered Socrates to die. (makeshift translation of A. Dubrovski's poem).

Salto logo and my newspaper appearance

I made some work for the Salto band today - a logo and a business card. They're playing some great trip-hop, folk, jazzy and jungle tunes:

This is funny and to the subject, there was an article about them the other day in The Moscow News, announcing their next gig in ArteFAQ, and the photo used on the website is one of their old ones, two years ago perhaps, with their (extremely talented!!!) singer Eva on the foreground and me hanging about in the background with my small keyboard (my short moment of glory!).

Church in Hoxton

I was in the East London the other day and decided to use the occasion to draw a bit. Not being very familiar with the neighbourhood, I wandered in circles until I hit this church with a nice garden and benches around it.

Wot ze hell is zat?

INTRO. This new project of mine is illustrating a series of limericks written by a friend of mine, Andrey Dubrovski. The poems are in russian, so I will include a small makeshift translation of what's it about. To make it different from "Book of nonsense" I just finished, I will try to make them look different. Not sure how, but I know it's necessary, as the poetry is quite different. Stay tuned for more updates. This day's poem is about Simón Bolívar.

Боливар с берегов Рио-Бланки Из грибов собирал лишь поганки. Увидав мухомор, Он вскричал: «Что за вздор!» Экспрессивный сеньор с Рио-Бланки.

А. Дубровский, 2011

"Bolívar from the banks of Rio Blanco always gathered only poison mushrooms. When he saw fly agaric, he exclaimed, "What a rubbish!", that expressive señor of Rio Blanco.

Dine already!

Молодому мсье Бонапарту За обедом подсунули карту. И Европу тогда Съел он – словно еда Старый Свет был для Буонапарта.

А. Дубровский, 2011

Young monsieur Bonaparte was given a map of Europe during his dinner. And Europe he ate, as if it was his food! (makeshift translation of A. Dubrovski's poem).

Get this sorted!

Архимеду в порту Сиракуз Указали на стаи медуз, Обещав, если он Их не выгонит вон, Самого изгнать из Сиракуз.

А. Дубровский, 2011

Archimedes was shown flocks of jellyfishes in Syracuse's port, and was told to take them away, otherwise they will take him away instead (makeshift translation of A. Dubrovski's poem).
