Catching up with Inktober 2023

It´s been a while, but I am still here! I have been doing Inktober diligently every year since 2017 and I was excited about this one. However life happened and I didn´t find time until now to get started.

Seems my Inktober 2023 will be quick doodles and turtle themed and a way to test out my brand new coloured inks!

We are greeted with mixed weather for the weekend after a rather sunny week.

This is another page of my upcoming picture book – paper and gouache. I am still working on the cover. It will hopefully be finished soon.

Have a great weekend!

Another page from my upcoming picture book.

There seems to be no change to weather here for the next couple of days it seem. Soon I´ll be running out of bad weather pictures to post.

As mentioned in my last post, I tried something completely different and made a picture book out of paper cut outs. The rain drops are gouache. It was so much fun!

Image fitting the weather today….Ah Icelandic summer…..
