Back to basics. It’s been a while since I did any etchings, and what a better time than autumn to refresh the skills. This is just a tonal scale/ value study for the upcoming works. More videos like this in the future. #lonac #studio #etching

I still dont have the final photos of this one, so here's a finishing stage from a week ago. This mural project was organized by @Pučko Otvoreno Učilište-Zabok and it is on the building of the Regeneracija factory. Thank you to @bbirac for invitation ;). Final photos and short video after the summer break. #lonac #mural #zabok

| @muralfestkosova | FRAGMENTS OF UTOPIA | Ferizaj, Kosovo, 2023. "UNSTILL" I knew about most of the Mural Fest artworks before coming to Ferizaj, so I wasn't that interested in painting another character/figure. Seeing the murals from previous years in person, particularly the ones in the center of the town, pushed me to go in a different direction esthetically and in terms of narrative. I believe it's easy to be "seduced" by some darker themes, and visually it can be much more fun to paint something moody and dramatic. Still, the wall in the center of the town needed to go against that ( and I needed to go a bit against myself) and create a contrast to the war-themed artworks. My idea was to paint something that at first looked more like decorative art, but I also needed to put some storytelling or a metaphor behind the work: The Balkans have traditionally been an area of turmoil and political instability, thus the name "Powder keg." Religion, particularly the divide between Eastern Orthodoxy, Islam, and Catholicism, has played a significant role in that instability. This tendency of individuals to associate themselves strongly with a particular group or tribe based on shared religious or ideological beliefs makes them view opposing ideologies as a threat. That leads to hostility, the rejection of alternative viewpoints, and a lack of constructive dialogue. By painting a still life in falling motion as a continuous pattern, with slight differences in details, I wanted to address both the beauty and instability and convey the idea of being more similar than different. This idea is a good starting point for a more utopian place which was the theme of this year's edition." Curated by @douggillen Photographer Dren Osmani & @Sovran Nrecaj Huge thank you to all the artivists and @lebibetopalli for such a warm welcome and a great time during and after the festival. Thnx to @douggillen for inviting me to be a part of this years edition and to all the artists for showing their dance moves. Hope to see you all again soon.

"Mornings" Mural painted as a par of the "Out in the Open" project curated by @kirkgallery in Aalborg, Denmark. It's been a pleasure working with the gallery and also seeing some of my favorite artists works in person was such a joy. Must admit I had a hard time with the weather after the first few wonderful days and painting after almost a year felt like the first day at the gym :D. I also have to give thnx to my dear friend and fellow artist @bonkasica for being patient and for cooking delicious coffee. More text about the work soon. #lonac #mural

Chin bras study no1. Did a lot of drawing studies in different line styles and different brushes/pens. These are the first 4 heads. Btw the mural season is approaching so I will post more new stuf in a month or so, once I'm done with some jobs that took a lot of my time and energy... #lonac #sketchbook #heads #chinbra #digitalart #procreate #characterdesign #sketch #sketchdaily #portraits
