passo sella, dolomiti, italia
love how the sky turned out!

theo jansen with his strandbeest.
i made this illustration for a children's worksheet at .nl. really love how it turned out.

pretty happy with how this one turned out. finally finding a style that works for me and suits me. i love drawing landscapes and scenery.

piazza campana, vicenza, italië.
i love mapcrunch.com to find references to draw from.

not entirely how i envisioned it, but still happy with the result. slowly finding my own style...

i made this drawing for my grandparents who are 60 years married! it's their vacation home in nature.

the red version of a previous drawing. i think i like the close-up version better.

fat man in watercolor.
fat people are the most fun to draw. so many lovely curves and lines. it’s simply more interesting than drawing thin people.

some colorful handwork.

it’s been a while…👋🏻

you'll definitely be in some trouble if you cross her.

i'm kind of proud of how this one turned out. the color palette could be better, and there could be a bit more 'life' and contrast. But not bad for a street in the evening...

practicing making stuff without excessively thinking about it first. sometimes just starting is the best way. for this the goal wasn't to make it pretty or make it accurate. the goal was to embrace the wobbly lines and the odd corners and the imperfections.

i like how the trees and the sky turned out. the light from the fire hitting the trees also worked out quite nice. can't decide about the figure just yet though... it's all a learning curve.
