This is what happens when you want to use all your new coloured pencils at once. A coloured mess.
Oh well. At least I tried them all out. I will try again. But I am also on the way to buy a few more coloured pencils. Just in love with them!

Kangarooooooo
Watercolour and pencils. Bought beautiful Caran d’ache Luminance pencils and their colours are simply amazing.
Now I just need to learn of how to use them properly.
Camel says Hello
A random camel as a quick drawing practice of the day… It seems like I am developing a style…
And I finally updated and did my portfolio anew. Take a look!
Pool Time II
Just putting out more pug illustrations from our Nobbi & Kobbi – Best Friends book.
Pugs are fun and silly looking sometimes. That’s at least my opinion.
If you and your kids like pugs, then this children’s book may be for you. My first attempt at illustrating a children’s story.
How flexible are you?
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.
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!
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!
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.
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.
Flight of the Pelican
After drawing 100 people it was about time to throw in a random pelican in between.
Happy Monday!
Wine Time
I do like a good wine. This is the last of the 100 people challlenge. Although I am already continuing with it and have reached #105 by now. I really do love to see the improvement I went through and how easy it has become to sketch people. I just need to work more on the speed. As I feel sometimes its takes me way too long.
Cheers and have a great weekend!
Ink All the Way
Still on the ink. Yep, loving it. But also missed some colour. So I ended up adding a bit of watercolour to this drawing. Below you can compare the before and after. Which one do you prefer?
This is also number 99 in the series of One Week 100 People I did at the beginning of April.
