Original artwork description:

When I started to draw this story, I had have a draft title for the sketch «A dog in flowers" and I had planned to draw a Russian borzoi. Everything was going according to this plan. Except the flowers.

Even then I should suspect that everything was not going according to this way. The doggy said that the flowers didn’t suit him and that he needed something so magical, about the wind and the sun, about flying. But he didn’t show that he just was pretending an ordinary dog.

His proportions and face were changing constantly. And it’s very strange when you’re drawing within the lines of the sketch, but to get an unexpected result. And also dog hair ... I couldn’t draw it, in spite of I have drawn a lot of borzois and I know how to convey their hair, to show a silky wave of hair. I know them tactilely, because I used to have these dogs in my life. But here, whatever I did, this dog changed everything.

Until I suspected it wasn't a dog at all. It was the spirit! And then white butterflies appeared around. And when I saw the butterflies, I fully realized who had come into my artwork.
I associate spring with a new beginning, a new life and a chance to breathe deeply after winter in order to spread my wings and fly. I felt that it’s the spirit of spring.
