The last couple of months (years actually) have be

The last couple of months (years actually) have been rough. A lot has happened and unfortunately my mom passed away last month 😭. During the turbulent times in the last couple of months I was not able to draw anything; there was no time, but I also could not. I simply was not able to put anything on paper. Now the dust is settling, I thought I would give it another try and I stumbled onto this Imagined Book Covers challenge. I got inspired by the title ‘The King’s New Crocodile’👑. I am really happy with this cover and the fact that I was able to draw again! I have not yet decided which book cover I will do next, but I love to introduce you to this little king!

It seems that I am longing for a vacation 😇🏝️. That said, I have more fun drawing animals then people.

Art as therapy this time. It were/are very turbulant times and I did not get the time to draw for weeks (!! 🫣) Since a few days I can do these little drawings again. Just experimenting with fountain pen and watercolours. It gives me something to focus on and be in a place where I only need to think about drawing and nothing else.
What do you do when you have to take your mind of things?

Had to give my watercolors another try. It is going to take a lot of practise to get it where I want it to be😅🫣, but for now I am ok with the result.
Some day, some time I will get there 😄💪

Finally a bit of time again to experiment! After b

Finally a bit of time again to experiment! After being busy with a very fun project concerning taking live visual notes 😁 I can open up my sketchbooks again to start doodling. This time I am experimenting with a Noodler’s Ahab flex fountain pen. I think I have been living under a rock, but I did not know there are fountain pens with flexible nibs! What an invention!

So now I am testing on different papers, with line making and ways to color the ink drawings.
This one is colored with black watercolor. Swipe to see the illustration more in detail.
What was your recent discovery?

Sometimes you forget about the things you love to

Sometimes you forget about the things you love to do. Well, I forgot 😊 But recently I got a reminder. My daughter gave me a book to read. And before I knew it I had read three books in a couple of days 😆 And I loved it! It was relaxing and I enjoyed it a lot. So, yes I love books. How about you?
