I’ve decided I want to do a little “series” (is there a better word for it???) of drawing Macedonia, Poland, and Turkey in my regional folk costumes. It’s 02:30 and I’ve given up trying to continue drawing the embroidery, I will continue when I wake up. But for now this is what I have

It’s the nosija from selo Buf where my family fled from in the 1930s, and I love drawing it very much

She will be the first in this little mini-series, then I’ll probably do Poland next. My only debate is if I should just pick one strój ludowe to draw or do all of them, because my family comes from 6 different voivodes 🫠 and all different regions. I don’t really want to draw Feliks 6 time for this, I will likely just choose one. Though I do debate if I should do research on the clothing worn by Jews in Podlasie/Kujawsko-Pomorskie as well since that’s where my Ashkenazi culture comes from. Who knows, we’ll see what I can find

Anyway here’s a picture of the nosija

Last note before I end this post, I’m gonna try to post more art here since that was the point of me making this blog lol. Surprising to say some of my old art still floats around certain Yugotalia tags but I haven’t posted much complete work in ages before I posted that art of Emil. I’ll try to post more. Hopefully my engagement will go up, my engagement on Instagram has been pathetic
