Onfim’s drawing of himself on horseback as a warrior defeating an enemy.

Two of Onfim’s works. On the left is a copy of a passage from the Book of Psalms he did for schoolwork. On the right is an apparently autobiographical depiction of a monster labeled with “I am a wild beast.”

Some more spelling practice by Onfim with some human figures who have round heads and varying numbers of fingers on their big hands.

Onfim’s writing practice accompanied by 7 little people in his particular drawing style, who tend to have very big hands with many fingers.

Nice AI-image-generating tool, but it will never be as great an artist as Onfim, a child who lived in the Novgorod Republic in the mid-1200s and who scribbled these drawings and schoolwork writings on birch bark at the age of 6 or 7.

Digital painting of my character Hajro, standing on a wooden boat and holding a fishing net with both of his hands. Hajro has dark skin and dark curly hair, and is wearing a wide white shirt, black dimiy pants, a red belt, and a red headband tied left from his face and falling down his shoulder. He is looking at the fishnet and looks focused and calm. The background features the sea with some rocks sticking out and the weather seems nice but slightly cloudy. The signature in the corner says "Snowy Avis, Feb. 2026"

Hvala ti, bukvalno jedan od najlepših komentara koje mi je iko ikada dao za rad 🥰🫶

Jandrija's soul most commonly assumes the shape of a rooster. In this form he can't use his magical powers fully, and his body is vulnerable, but he feels a lot more at peace like this. He shows his "true" form only to other witches or people he deeply trusts.

In many Balkan folk beliefs, witches, like other supernatural beings, have a soul shaped like an animal, usually a flying animal such as birds or moths. Their souls can leave the body through the mouth, roaming freely while the body sleeps.

Watercolour painting, showing the side profile of my character called Jandrija. He has light skin, short brown hair, and a red cylindrical cap with black swirly embroidery on the sides and black tassels in the back. He's holding his throat and has closed eyes, as a brown-and-black rooster is flying out of his mouth. The background is pinkish. The signature says "SnowyAvis, Jan. 2026"

~ A witch's soul ~

I occasionally want to post Balkan culture inspired works on Reddit, but the subreddits my work is relevant to (Balkan stuff subs) would implode from homophobia at the sight of my works, and the subreddits that would be fine with my works (queer subs) don't give a shit about Balkan culture

Genuinely what makes you think that? 🙃

Drawing my fægs kissing will continue until the morale improves

Digital painting, showing two characters in a loving embrace. The character on the left is Jandrija, he has light skin, short straight brown hair, and is wearing Dalmatian folk clothing that consist of a white shirt, a black vest with red embroidery, and a cylindrical red cap with swirly black embroidery on the sides and long black tassels in the back. The character on the right is Hajro, he has dark skin, short curly black hair with longer twists in the back and black eyes, and is wearing Ulcinj sailor clothing that consist of a wide white shirt, black pants, red belt and a red headband tied slightly left from the face, so the bow falls down on his shoulder. Hajro is bending down and smiling, while Jandrija is holding him on the neck and kissing his cheek. They are both in the darkness, with light coming from the background, as if standing in front of a window. The edges of the illustration are a repeating triangular pattern. The signature says "SnowyAvis, jan.2026"

Dalmatian Serb shepherd X Adriatic Afro-Albanian fisherman 🐐💖🐟

I am very in the mood to draw people kissing

More of my bisexuals

I was trying out some brushes that I don't normally use. Hope I did Hajro and Jandrija justice

A digital painting split into two, both sides showing close-up of two of my fictional characters kissing. The characters are Jandrija and Hajro. Jandrija has light skin, short straight brown hair, a scar over his lips and under the right eye, and is wearing Dalmatian folk clothing that consist of a white shirt, black vest, and a red cap. Hajro has dark skin, short textured dark brown hair, and is wearing clothes of an Ulcinj fisherman, that consist of a white shirt and a red headband. Hajro is turned towards the viewer more with his back, while Jandrija is standing more frontally. Both have closed eyes and look like they are enjoying the kiss. The whole painting has a faint pink overlay. The signature says "SnowyAvis, Dec. 2025"

Wishing everyone lots of love and kisses in the New year 🩷💜💙

I love bisexuals

in the hands of abusive people; his secret relationship with his former girlfriend, who he couldn't be with because their parents disapproved of them being together; and his second boyfriend, Mirash, who died trying to protect Hajro.

in most spheres of life, making Hajro unsure how to approach them - although this doesn't mean he doesn't do that from time to time. He is, however, disinterested in marriage.

He has had several closer romantic partners in the past: his first boyfriend, whose betrayal put Hajro

He especially likes rural men for the specific kind of beauty he doesn't see in the urban surroundings he's used to, but it's unlikely for such people to return his interest.
His preference for men is influenced by the society he grew up in, where women were segregated from men

Hajro is a bisexual man with a preference for men. He is generally promiscuous and very openly shows his interest in men, but due to his traumatic experiences as a teenager, his interest always stays on a temporary level.

Hajro is wearing a fisherman's clothing, which consist of wide black pants, a white shirt, and a red headband. Over his shoulder he is carrying the bisexual pride flag. He looks happy and confident and is looking at the viewer. Next to him, his name is written in blue text. The background is also in blue tones. The signature next to his feet says "SnowyAvis, Dec. 2025"

Hajro Harapi - bisexual king of the Adriatic 🩷💜💙

New stickers 🩷💜💙

He is nowadays mostly too traumatised for romantic or sexual intimacy with people, especially with men, but he feels more open to it once someone has showed a lot of respect for his boundaries.

and as a child wished he could marry a girl one day. At one point of his life he was in an abusive arranged marriage with a man, which he escaped by murdering his husband.

He is still comfortable with some activities that are viewed as feminine: witchcraft and weaving and embroidery, and carries a distaff - normally a symbol of womanhood - for magic purposes.
Jandrija is bisexual. For as far as he can remember, he has been experiencing interest in both men and women,

Jandrija is a transgender man. He uses potions to masculinise his appearance and voice. Being seen as a woman is very painful to him, and being referred to as a woman is one of the few things that make him immediately lose his temper.
