Went into myself and there is a showdown

May 26, 2021May 26, 2021 Helen Polishuk

,,……Went into myself and there is a showdown…,,

Well, to be precise, I’m in the process of making two films right now, which one will shoot first is hard to say.

Even three-third is the continuation of Mimmy’s Adventures. This is a set of fresh videos for the plot of the next series.

But the first two are future films.

Although, like all real cinematographers, I very much hide the preparation, but I can already reveal some details. So, two scripts are written.

Somewhere they are similar, the theme is historical.

But somewhere they are very different. They touch on different topics.

The scripts, I repeat, are already ready. Now for the final part about the writers, if you think this is where my work ends, it’s a mistake.

This is just the beginning.

Having gone through the difficult path of selection and agreement with the customer, now we need to translate this into a film, and then work with the production and producer.

Waiting for evaluation and correction from the director. Discussion of the nuances – how to shoot it. Not all the possibilities (I have a financial site) are easy to put into the film/what I’m wrote.

And here are the discussion about how to shoot this or that scenes. If I hadn’t worked in the cinema before, I would have been scared. But I am a tough nut to crack and gradually came to what I am doing today.

I am very interested in every stage of making a film. And I love difficulties and overcoming them.

I already wrote that when I had difficulties, I sat down and overcame them.

Therefore, tomorrow, this week, for a month, I am waiting for an agreement with the director of his vision of the film according to my script. Then the calculation of the budget of the film and again a conversation with those or more people about how we will shoot this or that scene.

I emphasize that for this I practiced a lot, trained on short films, honed my practice in making videos, this gives me a vision of the whole construction of the film. This is about the first scenario,first future film.

The second scenario has been created too. It is very good. It is at the stage of organizing financing for it. I, as a,, parent ,,of,, my script,,

, will invest here, possibly part of the time and part of the financing also, since the film is very dear to me.

Of course, I will open an account to financing the film and I will ask you to help or suggest who to work with and who can support the making of the film,who can donate for creation film.

This is the next stage and if it goes well, then our second film will be. Did you think that you would write on a piece of paper and this will all end?

Even in the 18th century, all the best poets and writers whose works have survived to this day, they gathered around patrons who publish their works. Nothing is random and I really like it too.

And the short films ?I love my short films. And over this year, many festivals have loved them.

A distinctive feature of my films is a clear presentation of the theme, a refined script and a lot of modern special effects. Therefore, a movie about Mimmy’s Adventures is on its way.

Will you ask about the Blue Funk one? It will be a very cool movie, and I won’t talk about it today.

So, look forward to the next posts. Follow my news on social networks. (Instagram Facebook YouTube channel Telegram Tweeter)

When the year ends, much ends with it

December 30, 2018December 30, 2018 Helen Polishuk

As one blogger said-fuck write about the results of the your year in your blog for readers . They don’t read anybody from reading.
Many people, they absolutely do not know what they write about themselves and what happened to the ordinary writer.It’s not interesting to them.
So,my dear readers, I just expose the pictures and comment them.
I do not agree on one thing with that blogger.
There are moments of reloading in life.
Someone does this regularly, regardless of the time. Someone does to tie it with holidays or dates.
I do it regularly with out dates.
Therefore, it is not painful and not important for me.

The 2019 year of the pig is about to come.

It is still locked up, still closed, but ready to enter in our society.

Dear Santa Claus!

when the year ends, much ends with it (6)

I ask you to send me energy to overcome all difficulties, I ask you to take care of my relatives and help my friends.
I ask you mood, joy and good luck for all my friends, for you, my dear readers.
Miracles happen if you believe in them.
Wishes come true if you make them

My beloved city Toronto plunged into an series of holidays.

City is empty during this time, as many have gone on a journey.
City is prettier now, as many have decorated their homes festively.

when the year ends, much ends with it (4)

I made a film about beautiful home decorations in Toronto. As in New York, it is a tradition to decorate houses with luminous garlands, to put snowman or Mickey Mouse behind home, to decorate trees growing near the house.

when the year ends, much ends with it (8)

The weather was pleasantly congratulated us on holidays, giving a white, clean, light snow.It is snowing…….

when the year ends, much ends with it (7)

I continue to work out in the gym, which gives me good results for losing weight, improving muscle tone, energy and improving well-being.
I wish you:Let changes in your life take place only in a good way, and may your health be strong

when the year ends, much ends with it (3)

I fly in the New 2019 year in my own strength and cheerfulness.
There are many dreams ahead that I am going to accomplish.
Forgive me that a lot of people what I left in the past and closed these pages.
Without such pain, it is not possible to rise.
I’m still with you and in you

I love you,my dear readers.
I plan many many new meetings with you both on the pages of my blog and on the TV screen, in life, in art galleries.
Let luck accompany you

when the year ends, much ends with it (2)

Best wishes to you

I invite to the exhibition

April 9, 2018April 9, 2018 Helen Polishuk

I invite you to the exhibition next week.

If you art lovers and if you live in Toronto,I invite to the exhibition which will open next week in Queen Gallery (382 Queen Street East,Toronto)

My submission for Alefba Juried Art Exhibition was approve and my artwork has been selected.

EXHIBITION: April 18 to April 28

OPENING RECEPTION: Wednesday, April 18, from 7pm to 9pm

CLOSING RECEPTION: Saturday, April 28, from 4pm to 6pm

I invite everyone who adores art and want to visit this festival of culture and enjoy the atmosphere.
This year the exhibition is devoted to caligraphy.
I already wrote in the previous post …….
I liked to work in this direction. It’s an amazing feeling when you create something that gives the painting with double meaning-name (caligraphy) and an image.
I studied the Arabic language. Now I just remembered him and drawing, saw in the bends-sense.
I will present several pictures at the exhibition.
I will tell you about each of them today.

The first is a ,,Cat,,

It was slowly being created.

I drew it using a mixed relief technique.

Covered her with oil paint.

A light tone gave a very large volume. I did not see the point in it and painting was lying for two years.

When I sorted through the paintings that I keep in a certain place, I saw this work, I touched it. I really like her relief. But then I put it back, because it did not fit the topic where I was working in at that time.
That continued until I was invited to participate in the exhibition.
I opened the files with all the photos of my works. Again this picture interested me. I took it out. Moved fron side to side. I looked.

I had an idea, in the waves that were in the picture, to put a blue thin lazy cat))
It took several minutes. I changed the background from pink to bluish. When the painting was finished and I photographed it, I was already confident that ,,Cat,, would get to the exhibition.
I even wrote about this in the previous post (see below)
This was confirmed by the jury, taking the painting to the exhibition.
So my blue lazy cat went for a walk around Toronto))

Cat (2017)

size:16” x 20” x 1”

medium:mix technic,oil,canvas,varnish

Available for purchse

Another interesting story occurred with a triple-scale work.

This work is more of a decorative nature.

It’s also about two years old.

The same embossed stucture technology.
I made it from three different sized canvasses. In the central canvas, an oval framed by a relief.
Side panels as crescents mirror the central image.

Here I worked more on toning the relief.

In the end, I highlighted some curves. They showed up very nicely.
The painting also stood for a long time, it, like the previous one, dried up and gave its basic color.
When I looked at it, I saw on it the Arabian caligraphy. I finished it just recently and prepared it for the exhibition. In the end, I covered it with varnish for safety and preventing discoloration and contour.

Decor(2018)

Size:14” x 34”x1” 30”x’36”x’1” 14”x’34”x’1”

medium:oil,canvas,mix technic,varnish

Available for purchse

Both of these paintings will be presented at the exhibition which opening April 18 and closing 28 April.

In parallel with the preparation for the exhibition, I’m preparing to sell my work, which will be held on April 21 in Halendas/Dundas Street West
Do not miss, only one day from 7 am to 7 pm.

And one more great event, to which I am preparing. This is the teachers’ meeting in Toronto, which will be held in early May.
I will take part there and show my works. This is also a sale.
I invite all of you.

About the preparation for it, I’ll tell you a little later

How the painting changed under the influence of calligraph

March 19, 2018March 19, 2018 Helen Polishuk

Today I taking about how the painting changed under the influence of calligraph.

I already wrote then I was interested in old inscriptions and hieroglyphics.
I began to study them carefully and compare them with the modern image.

How that it turned out to be your judge.
I’ll just show the stages of how two paintings were transformed.
Both paintings are already submitted to the exhibition which will be held in late April in Toronto.
I’ll start with the painting which published in the previous post.
That painting was a long time just as abstract painting.
This painting is basically drawn in 2017.
It is mixed technique, which used both oil and acrylic and the base was taken from the primer, which gave the picture a graininess.

Engaged in hieroglyphics, I put on the picture inscription,,cat ,,and just repeated the bending of the animal.
So there was an image of a cat

I just slightly more clearly singled out the Arabic spelling of the word ,, cat ,,(a-kat)

Lines of Arabic writing gently settled in the bend of the lines of the painting and I had a pretty image of a lazy blue cat))

Can only watch the rebirth of the painting))
I was inspired by such creativity

My second painting was a painting with a face.With blue face))
It was called “blue face”.

Like the previous one, the picture was drawn in 2017.

It is flatter and made only with oil paints.
Its color was soft and graphic image.
Among the Chinese characters I found the name ,,Women,,
It coincided with the name of the painting and repeated the lines depicted in the painting.

I only strengthened the corners of the hieroglyph for clearer reading.
And it’s all…
So there were two amazing painting in the new feed ,with new properties, with a new image.
I liked these transformations very much))

Thinking about geometric symbols

March 16, 2018March 16, 2018 Helen Polishuk

This my painting very soon will be exhibited at the spring exhibition in Toronto.
It will be prepared and changed.
It will appear geometric hieroglyphs as a symbol of the spring exhibition 2018.

We’ll talk today about this and other things that worry me.

Often, when we draw, we start drawing with lines, circles and waves.
It connects into an image becomes a picture,painting.

If we enter our subconscious, we will understand an interesting discovery.

Imagine that we are drawing our codes, we draw unconsciously that the ancestors drew on rocks and stones, advanced from generation to generation.

Studying ancient wall inscriptions in Mesopathamia, Egypt, China and Ukraine, I came to the conclusion that this is the beginning of our art,our painting process))

Million repeating lines and circles, as a result, give an image of the picture, where, if you look closely, there are ancient hieroglyphs.

And has no meaning in which country or when this image appeared.The line is line,the waves is waves.

All the ancient rock carvings are almost identical in spelling and have one meaning:they carry their code, their continuation, their symbol to subsequent generations.

Most of them are narrated about hunting and victory over an animal, or about the life of a tribe, or about a crop or a crop failure.

In any case, something extraordinary that needs to be fixed and left for generations to remember.

And just art that stretched the thread from ancient times to modernity.In modern painting, it is easy to find an image, сreated by several hieroglyphs and reflecting the drawn image.

I draw some kind of inner line and meaning between drawing in the old days and modern. I see an absolute coincidence and similarity.
As an artist, I always start painting, having the idea of something to portray or tell or leave for the next generation.

What amazed me was that, considering the paintings of contemporary or previous artists, you are always inspired by these paintings when you stop near they.
Paintings impress with meaning or idea.It is true.

And this is that invisible discovery, that thread of connection between ancient writing and modernity.
The paintings attract the eye.

And when you look at them carefully, you see both lines and waves and circles.

All the same simple symbols invested in our consciousness by our ancestors.

This, probably, and beckon us into artand it is intrigues .Always, somewhere tickles the feelings, plays with subconscious.

I want to show on this example.
There are women on painting.
To draw a female silhouette easily.

Women’s silhouettes are the smooth repetition of lines.

This is the image from Trypillian wall .This image is encrypted into the image of the bull’s head, carrying the code of the female body, wealth, procreation and full circle of life.

This is the code given to us in the generation with the symbol of the continuation of the genus, with the symbol of eternity and with the symbol of heritage.
In wall paintings we find them in unchanged images))This symbol is preserved unchanged in modern painting and carries all the same meaning and idea.
I now study a bit of ancient hieroglyphs and got the idea that time has not changed us.
We remained the same, bearing the code of our life, our eternal existence.
Maybe there are some modern changes that are very thin and sensitive to me.
I followed this trend that, alongside the image of great battles and harvests, portrayed the beauty of a woman and her strength is present too.

The modern world has changed to a woman. And this is sad for me. I fill that.And this will affect our next generations.
But I’ll tell you the next time))

Women and Flowers

March 8, 2018March 8, 2018 Helen Polishuk

Women and Flowers………

Women…….Flowers……

Today the post is only about this.
If anyone is not interested, please go yourself out and do not read.

Today is the Spring Festival. Look at the date of this post and you will understand everything.
But I’m crying………

I got up very early today, looked out the window.
On the street a gray fog, full of snow, melts snow from the roofs. Under the feet of a puddle of melted water.
And on this day for more than a hundred years in this territory of the planet created a holiday….spring holiday.
This holiday was not created here,created in Moscow, Clara Zetkin (first lady), led by some active group of women to the square and trying to convince that women need equal rights with men.

And gradually, over the next few years, a holiday was created for women. This is the day among the gray winters, when men congratulated their close women, gave them attention and flowers.

I will not prove that she is right or not
I describe today.
This holiday gradually became one of the big and important days of the year in East Europe.
Then this holiday from Eastern Europe moved to other countries.
Depending on the number of emigrants from eastern Europe, it began to celebrate in Asia, China, America and the Middle East.
On this day, flower traders win million-dollar profits.
Specially for this day, flowers are being grown for sale.
Can you imagine how much fresh flowers are bought?

For a long time I did not live in Kiev, I came by traveling.
And this is the first March holiday, I’m celebrating here in Kiev, for the last ten years.
And I’m crying.
Everything changes. The country changes. The system is changing.
Why do I pay?
Because today is the last time this day is officially celebrated in Kiev. Since next year it has been officially canceled.

Yesterday I had a lot of transport. And I saw people everywhere in the city, with flowers. Women carrying flowers.
Carrying flowers in their hands, in handbags. Women bring tulips or roses or flowerpots.
Women yesterday were dressed unusually sedately and neatly, a little tinted and each proudly carried flowers home.
Later it turned out that the working day was shortened.
I still have before my eyes these women in flowers everywhere, in the metro ,shuttles,buses,traines.

And yesterday it was amazing.
Flower shops have a choice of different types of flowers, different prices.Men run …with flowers…AMAIZING..

Why do I cry?
Women of this country need a flower festival.
Let it be, does not go away.
The women of this country are very hardworking and devoted.
Women of this country for many centuries gave birth and brought up children in difficult conditions.
They were leveled by rights and allowed to work for lower salaries.
The women of this country carved machines, trains and flew into space.
They were taught how to survive … maybe it would be better to give them more protection?
Protection for them and their children?
After all, these women are statistically (large number) educating children themselves and without a husband (the percentage of divorced in the country is high)

Very bitter, to tears, for everything that happens in this country…..
Poverty, lack of rights. Poverty and poverty……
And as an indicator of all this, the holidays are being canceled.
Forcibly erased culture … history … some traditions.
Bind it to politics and situation…..ostensibly so it is necessary…….
But it’s hard to see…….
I do not believe that next year men will stop giving flowers to women on March 8.
I do not believe that the holiday will cease to exist.
It is a pity that we can not choose the time ….
It is a pity that the story is altered by itself.
It is a pity that women, previously oppressed in this country, remain oppressed and now

I’m not Jewish or a feminist.
I’m a woman … just a woman … a woman … and that’s it.
All the photos with flowers in this post I give to the women reading this post…….
With spring you, my dear… and let in your life there will be many colors !!!!many flowers with love!!!

What i want next 2018 year

December 28, 2017December 28, 2017 Helen Polishuk

New Year 2018 is approaching.
A few days left before it starts.
I am cold, I cough and can not actively spend these days.
I canceled to have parties and meetings, because I feel very bad.
I had time to work a little with computer.I have time for myself.

I very much hoped that at the end of December I will be accepted for a solo exhibition in Etobicoke Art Gallery.

But the jury did not approve me, they just sent me a letter saying that the works are great and I stayed with them.
I stay with you, my friends, how much will I have enough.
I submitted to the contest in the newspaper, where my works were published last year.
So I was also sent a beautiful letter that I’m good, but took another.
I do not suffer from this.
But my strength and desire from this conceal.
I’m looking for other ways and exits.
After all, you can not wait and suffer all your life.
But where is the incentive for creativity?

Because of illness, because of dryness in the throat and a strong cough at night, I stopped drawing now.
I think they will return to creativity after illness and a trip to Ukraine.

So what do I want to do next year?
Of course, I’m looking for acquaintances and help in making the film by my script.
This is the reason for my trip to Kiev.
The film is planned to be shot in Kiev.
There is a production for work, but its funds are not enough and we are looking for co-production for the organization of the film.
A movie about bikers and funny.
My dream is to show it to the audience.

Believe me, for many reasons-it’s difficult for me to do this.
Of course, I will be glad to get acquainted and support.

What I want to do next year- is to finish two more scenarios.
Both scenarios about life are 4 serial melodramas.

The first script about women, I’m finishing the second series.
The second scenario is very dear to me, about the real events in the life of my friend and ready only in the synopsis.
To him I’ll get later.

What else would I want?

I lack management of my works and advertising in the field of art.
So next year I will more agree to exhibitions and events, where I can show my art work.
And I will devote more time to advertising and disseminating information about me.
Who interested in new names, who want unusual exhibits-contact me,please.

My exhibition will not be just an exhibition, I want to join together my work with the performances of artists and beautifully decorations.
It’s like a mini show where all kinds of art are connected.
Not only in the opening day.A during the whole week of the exhibition.
As a mini festival(this is my dream and this is answer why I cancel many time offers from the organizers)

Please do not be offended and do not think that I’m arrogant.
I just do not see myself in ordinary exhibitions.
Me there or not enough or do not look like me.
But I really want to show myself and my world, if make an exhibition.
So I applied to win individual exhibitions.

I want the next year to be as saturated as this one and even more…………………….
I wish health to all my loved ones……………………..
I wish success to all my colleagues………………………………….
I wish you love, my dear readers.Without it my life is empty……………………………..
I wish you happiness…………………………………….
Let your plans and ideas come true, let dreams come true…………………..

I remember a year ago one reader wrote to me:
,,You write well, but not enough. Please write more…,,

I then wrote a few lines. The publication of these few lines in English cost me a lot of sweat and a few hours. I sweated over each line and got confused in every word.
Today I am writing, remembering that time, smiling, thank you to my reader, who helped me and instructed me then and stimulated me.

Hahaha…………..
and I can not stop……….

Happy New 2018 Year me dear readers!!!!!!!!

Helen

Merry Christmas!!!

December 25, 2017December 25, 2017 Helen Polishuk

Merry Christmas my readers!
I wish you a miracle, harmony and happiness!

I did not see such a real Christmas for a long time.
Maybe when I was little girl as small as my granddaughter.
During two days of snowing the street is closed.
When the first cyclone was on,I clear my car from snow.
For the second cyclone, my granddaughter and I simply closed in the house and both of us had a real evening of a fairy tale.

My white car merged with snow and it was just a big ball of snow.
Outside home is incredibly beautiful and incredibly cold at the same time.

So we sat down together in the house, lit the lights on the tree and read fairy tales, stories in Russian and English.

We are discovered together for ourselves a real holiday of such a beautiful evening.
It’s a very warm feeling when near you there is an energetic twinkle that all the time ,,wants,,.
Wants to read, wants to eat, wants to play, wants to stop me.

I am very happy to see this little bundle of happiness that grows in front of the eyes and is open to the her world.
I am pleased to observe this.
I see myself, when I’m little, sitting at my grandmother on knees and reading books.
I do not remember myself like that, but parents was told that I was very stubborn, hard and demanding.
I just smile, how wonderful it is, to grow like this.

The lack of knowledge forces the child to demand them.
Sometimes the child asks to do something that she already knows how, but with the hands of the parent.
And it’s interesting and beautiful.
We drew together, played games, prepared to eat together.

Of course, today is not 1900, but 2018 soon.

I received a number of congratulations from my friends on e-mail.
Merry Christmas for all of you!

Wish you Happiness!!

Wish you Harmony!!

Wish you Peace!!

Helen
