Inktober Day 31 – Award
Last but not least, the best award of all, the Golden Plover or Lóa as it is called in Icelandic.
Winter is coming so it is time for the Lóa to fly south. The birds will stay south until late spring. They will return to Iceland when summer starts. There is even a song about: Lóan er komin (The Golden Pover has arrived)
The crown turned out rather awkward I have to admit.
What’s next?
I have been in a drawing mood lately and thought it is about time to add some new prints to my Etsy shop.
But what should I add?
Let me know in the poll below.
Here is a best off (at least my favourites) of Inktober so far. There are a few more to come.
Inktober Day 5 – Deer
No deer in the headlights… deer with no lights. Happy Monday!
Be my Bird
Another “friendship” card. Inspired by an Irish friend. Still in need of a last minute Valentine’s card? Take a look here on my Etsy.
Something Something
Yes, I have been busy. Drawing, working, editing illustrations, my first proper commission. So much so that I forgot all about the blog.
Valentine’s day is just around a corner. I prefer Friendship Day, Ystävänpäivä as they call it in Finland. Still missing a card? I put some up on my ETSY Shop.
More positivity please
Or is that a sarcastic Oui Oui? For me to know and you to find out 🙂
Anyway, just uploaded the print to my Etsy.
Have a great day!
Last but not least
Here is the third blue-footed booby poster of the series….
Do you have any bathroom art at home?
Hey there!
Just for fun.
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….
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!
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.
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!
On my Pinterest search for inspiration and odd animals I came across this fella. A Blue-footed booby! Blue feet will follow!
So I am still procrastinating, avoiding my book project, by drawing other animals.. It could be worse I guess.
Off to the pool! Have a great weekend!
Weekend Motivation
Time apparently flies when you are having fun. I have been drawing like a mad woman all week. Will be relaxing at the gym tonight. Guess my party days are over.
Happy Weekend!
P.S. Check out my Etsy shop for the print below.
Monday Mood
New printable design in my shop. Plus it has been raining cats and dogs all day. Must be related…
Something borrowed, something new
Took a break from inking over the weekend and instead added new designs to my Etsy shop.
I guess this is more for me than anyone else. I am really bored of this book project right now and even thought about quitting. But then again, that is not an option.
You can find this design either as print or postcard printable in my shop.
Happy work Monday!
