Adventures of the Little Fly VII
Continuation of introducing the Adventures of the Little Fly.
I very much enjoyed drawing this snow covered garden scene.
During the beginning of the long winter nights here in Iceland, many people cover their trees with winter lights. It makes the dark nights appear more bright.
We had the first snowflakes flying around here yesterday. Way too early if you ask me.
Adventures of the Little Fly VI
Continuation of introducing the Adventures of the Little Fly.
When the little fly woke up again and looked out of her hole in her tree, the garden looked weird. A white blanket was covering everything.
What had happened?
The mountains around Reykjavik are all covered in snow this morning. Winter has certainly arrived.
Adventures of the Little Fly V
A continuation of introducing the latest children’s book I finished illustrating.
The little fly decided to fly back to her hole in the tree and sleep as she was super tired. There she slept and slept.
FYI the sleeping positions of the little fly have been inspired by my dog…
Just One of Those Days
Where you don´t really know what to do, but would like to do something, but you also cannot be bothered to move…
I find that an appropriate title for this image. Unless you have a better idea?
What is Looming in the Dark?
Luckily nothing except for ice and snow. Mr Fox just got scared of his own reflection…. or did he?
I Just Stay Where I Am (or The Weather Today)
As the title says. This little pug is going nowhere with strong winds and below freezing temperatures out there.
I really love this little guy (although I am not a fan of pugs at all). I love dogs, the bigger the better! What about you?
But I drew him last winter for an upcoming project I have been working on with a friend. Stay tuned!
Inktober Day 12 – Slippery
Seems I forgot to post day 12 of Inktober. I am also still missing the last 2 days of Inktober as last weekend did not leave any time for drawing. They will follow soonish.
I haven´t been tubing in a long time but it is so much fun! Therefore this Capybara ventured out of its natural habitat to give it a try.
Have you tried it?
A Winter´s Tale
Winter storms are still going strong here. I started to enjoy watching the snow hitting the window and got accustomed to cosy indoor life.
I am currently still working on a series of illustrations for a friend. But in the meantime I thought I put this little story of my own together.
A Winter´s Tale
On his stroll around the forest Mr. Fox was looking for a good spot to relief himself. Not paying attention of where, he just went about his business.
Before Mr Fox new what happened, he found himself in the big black mouth of the snowman who tried to swallow him whole.
But after the first surprise, Mr Fox started to put up a fight.
On it went. The struggle continued for a while, but eventually Mr Fox was able to free himself and ended up victorious.
The End.
Have you build a snowman?
We are currently having that terrible winter weather that I hate. It snows one day, only to be followed by heavy rain the day after…. So no chance to enjoy the snow or build a snowman. Therefore an ink version has to do for now.
Have you build a snowman this winter?
Be a unicorn
Happy New Year everyone!
Let´s see what the next year will bring. Thank you for all your support throughout the year.
Victorious
Hope you all had a good holiday and survived without any bigger incidents. We spent a couple of days in the Icelandic countryside which was quiet and peaceful. Now back in town where it is time to continue the story of Mr Fox.
The angry snowman did not manage to swallow Mr Fox. Quite the opposite. After a short struggle between Mr Fox and the snowman, only one of them turned out to be victorious!
Merry Christmas
I’m wishing you all a happy holiday, and may Santa or Mr Fox bring you lots of lovely presents.
Mr Snowman is not amused.
Winter is here and a storm warning is on for tomorrow. I think this will be my Christmas card for this year. What do you think?
Inktober 2019 Day 27 – Coat
Time for a new winter coat?
Chasing Pigeons
This little girl had fun going through a crowed of pigeons over and over again, causing havoc. She certainly seemed to enjoy herself.
I sat on a bench just opposite of it, enjoying the March sun in Athens. I thought it was quite warm already, but all the locals were pretty much still out in proper winter gear.
Keeping Your Cool Like a Snowman
Or something like it. I was not planning on a winter scene when I started inking this, otherwise I would have put some woolen socks and sweater on her…
Oh well. We are off to the countryside over the New Year´s with no internet. Only a bunch of books and plenty of wine and cheese! Really looking forward to it.
Thank you to everyone who supported me with their encouragement, positive comments and likes throughout the year. It was a pleasure to get back into drawing and also see and feel improvements. I will definitely keep on going. Let´s see what the New Year brings. This one was certainly one with many ups and downs. But as “they” say, if you hit rock bottom it can only go up again.
Happy New Year!
