Another somewhat lazy quick sketch.
I think I am quite good with my flexibility but not anywhere near this lady with her monkey.
Don´t ask me what the monkey is doing there, he just happened to show up.

Daily Yoga
Still practicing and experimenting with the pose of the day. I am not able to get my leg that high up though.
Changing Perspective Again
Another quick sketch inspired by Pinterest.
I am currently enrolled in a book cover design class. Looking at a topic and theme from different angles can often be eye opening, and also inspirational.
Pool Life
Kobbi the pug is waiting for summer. So am I.
I am certainly ready to go to the pool, if it just wasn´t so windy today…
More silly pug drawings you find in my first illustrated children’s story written by my Icelandic friend Norbert. The story is now also available in Icelandic for any language enthusiasts out there.
What you looking at?
Yes, I do like the perspective of the big noses.
Be Like a Duck
Be like a duck. Remain calm on the surface and paddle like hell underneath.
– Michael Caine
I think I’ve finally developed quite a good routine with my daily drawing practice. This time without ink.
Donkey Business
Time to mix things up a bit.
Have a great weekend everyone!
The Dilemma with French Bulldogs
I am torn regarding French Bulldogs. I find them somewhat ridiculous, but also extremely adorable….
Opinions? They are certainly fun to draw!
Morning Walk
The best thing about having a dog is, that you are forced to go out in any wind and weather. Sometimes it’s tough but almost always rewarding.
Hello there! What has this little one spotted?
Walking the Walk II
I do like to draw these different perspectives. Really helps me to study people in a fun way. Another Pinterest inspired “quick” sketch.
Street Style
They say, dogs look like their owners, or is it the other way around?
Today’s quick sketch inspired by Pinterest – A French bulldog and his stylish grumpy looking companion.
Happy Monday, off to work!
Nobbi & Kobbi – Children´s Book
You can find my first illustrated children´s story of the two best friends now also in German on Amazon. The English version you find here.
Die Geschichte von Nobbi und Kobbi gibt es jetzt auch auf Deutsch auf Amazon zu kaufen.
In hindsight I would do many things differently when it comes to illustrating and editing the book. But then again, it was the first and there is a learning curve. 🙂 I definitely want to do more book illustrations and am busy practicing and learning new publishing and editing programs.
In fact, I just finished my second children’s book, a story about a little fly. I am very happy of how it turned out. More about it soon!
I have plenty of inspiration when it comes to drawings but I suck at making up stories. If anyone has a great story idea they would like to collaborate on, please drop me a line.
In the meantime check out the silly story of Nobbi & Kobbi.
Dropping Ink All Over
When you try to do a quick sketch and the ink flies all over the desk…
I think it still took me about 30 min to do this one. So not that quick after all.
Looking Good in Pink
Ready for work.
Lately pink has become my favourite colour. What is yours? My favourite dress is bright pink.
Also still studying people´s poses from different perspectives. Pinterest has become my new best friend as source of inspiration.
Time to freshen up
After roughly 10 years I thought it is also about time to change the header image of my website. Played around with different versions, this is what I settled on for now.
Any comments and feedback are more than welcome.
Walking the Walk
Still trying to sketch a person at least every other day, just to keep practicing.
Just Kick it…
Sometimes it feels good to blow off steam.
Backpacking…
Got a new sketchbook and had to use it right away.
Time to get out to explore new things. What do you put in your backpack?
Capybara & Friends
Good friends are the most important in life.
