Description "Šly panny, celé bosé byly... a nesly Moranu..."

("Maidens went, all barefoot... and they carried Morana..." <- uuugh, what a crappy translation D8 )

- lyrics from a song by Jaromír Nohavica

There's a tradition here: at the beginning of the spring people go "burning witches" (usually straw dolls). It's like a closing after the reign of deadly winter, burning a doll that is substitute for Morana, Slavonic godess of death.
(Though in these modern times many people don't even know why are they doing it and where did this come from ^^ )

Dunno if it's finished or I'll make sth more with it later... And yeah, there's BIIIG version uploaded, so if someone wants to color it, just hit 'download' and get it (:

It's Jarosław in Polish? That confuses me, since we have separately name Jaroslav here too XD Isn't there some Jaromir too in polish? Like Jaromir from jaro = spring and mir = peace since Jaroslav is from jaro = spring and slav = celebrate? (:
Aww, thank you, I've always liked Polish and especially your language, to be honest;3 And some polish writers 8D

Thankies!

Opravdu nádherná kresba Mesi ... ty pohledy slečen, úlně na člověka mluví i beze slov a o jejich křivkách raději nebudu mluvit (možná nejsou všechny zrovna nejstarší XP, jsou ale nádherné )

za nabarvení bych se také moc moc přimlouval, asi nejvíce by mi k tomu sedly vodovky, ale to je pochopitelně na tobě ^^
