Life is better upside down
It’s been a month since I was on a hoop. I was forced to take a break due to a pulled arm muscle. Patience is not one of my strengths, but I am trying to be smart this time and not make it worse. So I have been doing the next best thing, drawing Mr Fox the aerialist. It has been a while since he has made an appearance.
Wanna hang with me?
Here is the almost finished opossum. I haven´t been hanging upside down for almost a month now due to an elbow injury , but I might attempt going back to aerial hoop this week to start with some easy training again.
Anyone else here who likes to hang upside down?
What animal would you like to see next?
What are you doing?
Yes, what am I doing? For being a professional project manager, my art projects are currently all over the place in different stages of progress….
Instead of focusing on finishing my book, I get distracted by animal drawings and designs for Etsy….
Honey Badger Coming Your Way II
After doing the sketches the other day, I felt like drawing some of those badgers in big. Still work in progress.
I also updated the honey badger posters in my Etsy shop if you would like a badger on your wall 🙂
Dancing into the weekend
Here they all are, the blue-footed boobies, dancing their mating dance. I will also upload them to my Etsy shop as downloadable prints next week if you would like to put them on your wall.
Blue Feet
Alright, I finally get a chance to use this beautiful blue ink. It took a while but I am finally adding the blue feet to the blue-footed Boobies!
Sunday Mood
Just chillin’…
Party Bunny
Saw this photo of this cute rabbit and really wanted to draw him. Then I felt like adding a party hat…
Hat or no hat, that is the question? What do you think?
Fun with Dogs
Have been messing around with the finished dog drawings to turn them into posters for my Etsy shop…. One idea was to dress them up… or to put funny hats on them… For now I only have them as curious animal prints.
What do you think?
Dogs dogs dogs…
I got hooked on drawing dogs…
Woofing Weekend!
Just leaving this here. Not quite finished yet but getting there. Have a good weekend!
Finished Book Page
Here we go. It still needs some retouching and editing but this is the raw version for now. And of course the text is missing.
What do you think? Comments and criticism more than welcome.
I will let it rest for now and tackle some of the other book pages I am still unhappy about. Or I procrastinate and draw some more random animals for my Etsy shop... tempting! I am adding new designs daily. Go and check them out 😉
Back to Work
I finally got over my creative block, related to my book project, AND I fixed page 2 which had been bugging me for the last 3 months! So far I am quite happy with the result.
Here is a sneak peak of the work in progress.
Blue feet still missing
Finished inking this little fella. Still need to add the blue fee, to make the blue-footed booby complete.
Current status of my desk as bonus.
Apparently Blue-footed Boobies are a thing
and quite popular. I only discovered these funny looking birds last week. As I am still procrastinating from other things, I felt like drawing a second one of these funny creatures.
Life is Better Upside Down
It’s been only two weeks since the last aerial hoop class, but I already miss hanging upside down in the air! Need to make sure I get to the studio on Friday.
Until then I am having fun with more poster designs for my Etsy shop.
Who else likes hanging upside down in the air?
Hoot hoot
Yep, I am still procrastinating…
Sometime you just need to change your perspective I guess. Owls are funny, don´t you think?
Hello there! Part 2
Nice to have a break from drawing dogs and teddy bears and try new animals. After my lama sketches the other day, here a finished lama drawing.
Sunny greetings from the rock!
Don’t overthink it.
Poster design and motto of today. After I had a good two weeks run working on my book project I think I hit one of those micro pits of despair again. It kind of feels like I am out of drawing energy. So I have been doing something else until I get my mojo back.
Was playing around with a few new poster designs for my Etsy shop. They will be up by the end of the week. And I have been drawing more lamas… Maybe I’ll add them too.
