My Compass


Sketch of a compass. Not a perfect sketch but I tried. I am still struggling with perspective and really have to train my eye how to look at things. It was a good practice round though :) 
Happy drawing, sketching and painting everyone!

Tin to hold all my markers and pens.

Sometimes I just love to sit in front of the TV with my art journal and doodle. I have been looking for something to hold all my markers and pens I need when I do. I tried all kinds of holders and discovered that this little tin is perfect for the job but I didn't like the coldness of the tin against my hands. I decided to dress it up with some crochet, felt and buttons and added a little bling too. You could say 'Oh my word but it's so kitsch!' Well... maybe it's kitsch, maybe it's funky but it's my own creation and I love it! Best of all it's nice and warm and very very handy indeed! :)

Magazine Collage!


 And for something totally different. Magazine collages! It is such a creative and imaginative way to experiment values and shapes. I did these collages by using only magazines and build the faces up with small pieces of torn pages. I know they are not masterpieces by far but it is a way to experiment and create playfully. Give it a try! 



Take care!

Pages From My Everyday Matters Daily Journal

Wow, time flies! Can't believe my last post was on the 6th of March. Following are some of my pages about everyday life. My way of visual journaling about me, my day, things around me and things that I read, hear or do.

Everyday Matters #3

More pages from my journal about everyday matters.  After I finished  washing my car on Saturday I decided to make a drawing of it. I started the morning when I had my morning coffee with a drawing of my cup and then I saw my keys and started drawing that as well.
