These regal anthropomorphized felines are the work of Tashkent-based Uzbek artist Eldar Zakirov. Eldar’s digitally painted portraits were created for and published in Hermitage Magazine.
“Styling his whimsical renditions like classic oil paintings, there is an unbelievably realistic quality to them that makes the viewer question whether they’re actually looking at accurate depictions of cats dressed in formal uniforms.”
We love how their whiskers resemble fancy mustaches:
We hope Russia’s Hermitage Museum has a secret wing of awesome paintings like these, representing a fantastic period of Russian history the rest of the world knows nothing about.
After wrapping up my current unfinished stories, I thought I might try a berena Vicar of Dibley/Handsome Stranger AU. Would be set at the hospital (no Dibley characters except for maybe a cameo by Alice or something) but mirror Geraldine/Harry with Serena/Bernie. Like, Serena and Morven go down to the ED to meet the new trauma surgeon and magic/love/misunderstandings ensue. Maybe two chapters.
Chapters: 1/3 Fandom: Holby City Rating: Teen And Up Audiences Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Serena Campbell/Bernie Wolfe Characters: Serena Campbell, Bernie Wolfe, Morven Digby Additional Tags: AU, The Handsome Stranger, from Vicar of Dibley, not a crossover though, just borrowing the plot of one of the Christmas Specials, where the Vicar meets Harry, It’s on Netflix, Fluff, No Angst, no one dies Summary:
It’s Christmastime on AAU and Serena is downtrodden, lamenting another holiday on her own when the arrival of a dashing new ED consultant turns her world upside down.
AU. Borrowed the plot from ‘The Handsome Stranger,’ a Vicar of Dibley Christmas episode, but this not a crossover fic.
100% Fluff, Temporary Misunderstandings, and Magical Love
No Jason (sorry!) and no Marcus/Cameron/Charlotte. No deaths. Serena is a proud bisexual and Bernie an enthusiastic lesbian (you’re welcome).
