The meaning of prison as a kingdom
The Spirit of the Woods, also known as the spirit of nature, vegetation and untamable growth throughout, with his crown made of bars which are supposed to be delimiting him, shows how the immortal element of life, drawing its strength from the sun, earth, water, and death, handles obstacles.

An attack of hyperdetailism in a rather odd setup
I have the habit of aiming for extreme precision, one that keeps growing with age, so that I incline to more than hyperdetailism. This work is an evidence of casualness and disregard to unfavorable conditions, as I finished this piece mostly during the neverending bumpy train rides while commuting from my hometown to Prague. Those who are familiar with the Czech railways know that our old and even new trains shake like crazy. Old communist-era carriages especially. However, that didn’t stop me from working on the piece, including sharp details and drawing without strokes.
