Summerglow

Here is a little peep of my new drawing. It's totally not finished yet. She doesn't have a face and it's just basic developed. My intention for this one, is a golden glow at a hot summer evening.
I've put some photographs of Olivia Graham together, because I found them very pretty.

Artist

When I saw work of the artist Prince Lauder, I really needed to post it. His pieces are so ... yeah baby, I don't have a better word for that. Enjoy!
Please visit his site right here.

busybusy

I'm so sorry, I wish I could post more, but it's really busy these weeks. I have deadlines coming and graduation tasks, and other assignments.. I also promised to make another fashion drawing, but it isn't finished yet :( So I just put some inspiration together of vintage pictures that I had on my computer and this weekend I will show you a peep of my drawing.

Relaxing weekend

Confession: I'm a real tea and coffee junky.

Painting

This is my latest new painting on canvas. It barely fitted in my car.

(acrylic, 120/80 cm). link

Funny thought : Apparently our cosmos is one big recycling bin, also our planet and ourselves. Because we are all made out of atoms blabla... such a funny thought that we all have pieces in us of galaxies and dinosaurs :)

Contest

The beautiful blog Paperfashion organized a contest: submitting an inspirational photo and the winner gets a paperfashion illustration of that photo. I thought "why not, just for fun" with the assumption I'm not going to win. Of course I was right. But when I saw my photo between a few of her favorites, I was childishly happy. This was my photo.

I like...

growing process

I was browsing through my sketches from my first year Art school. It's really funny to see. I've learned a lot those past years. My ideas and implementations were so short-sighted. If I knew back then, what I know now, I would do it totally different. I lived in a little narrow world. And 10 years later from now, I would probably say it again, about what I know at this moment. This is also an art, accepting our growing process.

Cinemagraphs

Isn't this strange? Those are animated gif photos. From the New York fashion fotographer Jamie Beck in collaboration with the motion graphic artist and designer Kevin Bur. Go check out her site here

Drawing

I've worked with watercolor pencils for the first time.
A little experiment, it was fun. (+ink)

The power of simpleness...

striped

Everywhere I look on the street, in bars,... stripes stripes stripes... but don't get me wrong, I love it too, or is it brainwashing? (link)

drawing

This drawing, I've painted yesterday. charcoal + acrylic, paper + a little photoshop ;-)
It was a quicky, because paper isn't a good basic to paint on.

Wandering

source

I'm quietly counting down for my holiday, a road trip through Italy (Umbria and Toscany).

Hmm dreaming dream dream. Sometimes I think so deeply about our origin and the cosmos, I'm 'getting' crazy! I want to write it down how my mind works, but my English isn't good enough... I even can't write it down in Dutch. It's like a whole network in 3D, one thought works to another and another,...

It feels like the creation of our cosmos is actually quite simple and logical to figure out, like the apple falling from the tree, but we just can't see it. Probably we'll never do, sigh.

p.s. I have a thing lately with triangles...

Two lovely

Sorry it has been a while since I've stopped by. It was really busy lately, still, but I'm back!
