Beavers are fun to draw. The other one is a ferret, I think?


I really love how the chimpanzee turned out. He is my favourite so far! What do you think?
I had him on my pinterest board for a long time. I remember trying to draw him a year? / few years ago and it turned out all awkward and wrong. I need to see if I find the old sketch somewhere.
Anyway, good start for the day. Happy sunny weekend ahead!
And if you are still looking for some funny wall decor, check out my Etsy shop.

Yes, the pelican book is still on. It’s very much a work in progress. The manuscript is pretty much finished, and so is the storyboard. And I still like it, after 2 months of break, so that is a good sign.
The next step is to create the first proper illustrations. That’s on the agenda for tomorrow, so I can finally get started on that phase.
One of the reasons I’m doing these watercolour sketches at the moment is to loosen up a bit and explore different approaches until I find a style that feels right. I am also still set on ink and watercolour. Need to experiment more with it. But for now I love my Caran d’ache pencils. What do you think?

This print is now officially approved by my partners co-workers and is now on their office wall.
Want to make a statement too? Find the print here.

From this, to this.

Checking if I can still draw… After all good intentions of sketching daily, I did not open my sketchbook once during the last 6 weeks of travel…
Now back home, I got my desk cleaned up, spent another 30min looking for my pencil case, and eventually started out with a number of 5 min animal sketches. This one was 25 min from start to finish.


Seems the more I draw and the more creative I am, the more my blog suffers. But I have been drawing a lot, working on the story board for a new book. Doing some new Etsy posters.
Still plenty of things on my to-do list for this week. But first, a snack!
Have a wonderful day!

New week new motivation. I made more planners and only semi so so followed my plan. Has been a very productive 2 weeks though.
I have been adding more of the weekly planners on my ETSY.
I also finished several 2026 calendars just right in time for February! Check them out here!
Have a great rest of the week!



Trying to start into the new week full of motivation and with a veeeery long to-do list. So in order to tackle the new year I am trying to be more organized (my main job is being a professional organizer that needs to meet deadlines aka project manager).
As if I don’t have enough things on my to-do list, step one was to make the to-do list look nice, which then turned into the creation of a whole set of weekly planners and a year calendar in the making. I suppose that this is a whole new level of procrastination.
Anyhow, you can also get your own printable weekly planner here on my Etsy. I’ll be uploading a few more online this week.
