Theremin


Do you guys know what a Theremin is?




...No?
Only the most amazing music instrument in the world!


It sounds like a mix between a woman's voice, a violin and a cat. When you play it, no one can tell you are. And it's... well, see for yourselves.




  Beautiful, isn't it?

I would just love to be able to play it. I'll add it to the list of things I need to learn one day.

A Midsummer's Night Dream

Still exploring Fantasy themes. I really wanted to do some fairies. And well, Shakespeare lends itself well...

“The course of true love never did run smooth,” comments Lysander, articulating one of A Midsummer Night’s Dream’s most important themes—that of the difficulty of love (I.i.134).

Yvaine


Today's piece was all about fantasy. I didn't feel like doing a LotR or a GoT piece, though, and I've done a lot of Harry Potter - but Stardust? That's a universe worth exploring. So here it is, Neil Gaiman's beautiful, evocative concept of a Fallen Star, as visualized by me :)
