My Bio
I was born here in 1974 in Poland and am still alive, living and working there. Far from being able to call myself an artist I try and try to get some graphics works done. I just love to create stuff and tell stories.
From a professional point of view I'm a specialist in electronics for scientific and robust application. I also do embedded software. And I like this job as it involves a lot of experiments and creativity. It is especially amusing because I'm staying on a thin border between scientific work and a regular industry and have to continuously learn a lot of things.
I started with DA after some stunts in my private life. I always like drawing and at that sad day decided to work on making it better. I still have to use a lot of reference photos but I think I'm slowly going better and better. But I still find drawing harder than programming, math or physics.
I'm far from calling "porn" and art, so I'll never be a true artist ;). After this sentence You should be able to catch what kind of drawings I do. So if You are underage either in Your country or in mine (must be 18 then) please go away.

Art, money and artisans

Few days ago I had a pleasure to read a short note from one of, in my opinion, one of best erotica writer in which he expressed a feeling, that if something is for free the we can't have any rightful expectations about quality. Basically: it's free, take it or beat it, if You don't like it then go away. On one hand I can't say it isn't right. On the other I can't agree with it at all. I don't have a great personal experience with buying art, but I have it with a software. In my opinion both cases are very, very close to each other, because both are expression of human creativity. Or greed ;) The humans brought to life in a material world of capitalism do have deeply imprinted feeling that if You pay for something, then You may expect quality. They do believe that better wins with worse, that development will always produce better products and remove from market worse products. They do tend to forget one thing: what does it mean "better?" Now imagine You are an artist. You do

Forced to eclipse....

Forced to Eclipse... I don't mind progress. But I do mind, if progress comes with harm to usability. For an example right now. I'm writing a journal entry. The web site look cute. I do have 70cm wide monitor. Why the text covers only 1/4 of it's width? Why upper half of it is occupied by space which says... well... it's mostly empty, right? Previously I could use HTML tags like To make a header and see it on preview. Why when I do press ENTER cursor goes below the screen? Why interactive elements on page are not somehow made to stand out? Why somebody decided that some empty space are interactive? Why... why why... From my point of view it seems that DeviantArt owners just took a look at the new design and said "Oh, how nice and modern, let's go there!". Testing? What testing? Usability? What is a usability? Some smart options? Why, throw them away.... And talking about smart options. There was something called "More like this". This tool, I believe had

Darn...

Dran... I just yielded to temptation to upgrade my Inkscape and boomer - it doesn't work as good as previous version was. By "not as good" I mean - it's unusable. Then, and it is a real shame to admit for an engineer, I can't figure out how to install back the old version. And neither I can't figure out how to get the most fresh version.
I'm slowly getting convinced that Linux was not a best choice. I can't run two different versions of Inkscape together. I can't install old version without downgrading a whole system. I can't have both Libre Office and Open Office. Not mentioning tens of free programs I would like to run, but apparently the
