I tried out a different colour scheme first (blues, purples & pinks), but I wasn’t feeling it at all. So I redid the whole thing and I’m much happier with the new direction!
I’ve been procrastinating hard on this painting in the last few days and it’s probably because the colou...

It's one of those times when I have a hard time believing how lucky I am. I have you and you always have my back, so that I can keep drawing pictures for a living. It's insanely wonderful! Thank you so, so much for your support. You are making a huge difference in my life!

Hello my friends!
I hope you’re having a good day. Today, I started on a new illustration involving two kids, snow, a deer and a rather complex background. Every year around Christmas I just feel like drawing something seasonal. Though for the last few years winters haven’t been the same here...

I just finished my latest illustration! I’ve already written quite a bit in my previous posts (works in progress), so there’s not much to add. But I can definitely say that I’m proud of the result. I’ve always been avoiding multiple characters, so this is a big step forward.
The more I dr...

I feel like a human being again after lying on the couch for 5 days. Doing nothing always drives me crazy, so here I am, back at work!
I painted the base colours for this illustration today. Everything that comes after this is probably my favourite part of any artwork. The heavy lifting is done a...

I returned from Dublin a couple of days ago, but took the rest of the week off to relax a bit more. Turns out this was a good decision since I came back with a big fat cold. This happens every time I go over there. T...

Hello my friends!
You asked for more works in progress, so here we go. 😊
It feels really good to get back to work on my project Phantasma. This might also be my favourite sketch I‘ve ever done! The characters are Seth and Leigh. The owl still needs a name though. Do you know an...

Hello hello,
How are you doing? I'm preparing for a short vacation to Dublin. I lived there for a year and I'm looking forward to getting back to my second home. I can't wait to rest and recharche a bit and come back with a lot of new inspiration and energy.
But before that, I wa...

The artwork is inspired by the beautiful colour palettes in the Sailor Moon anime. I put so much energy and care into this, so I really hope you like it.

The background on this was so relaxing to paint! I love nature scenes.
The card stands for being daring, adventurous and passionate. I've been stuck on it for a while because I did NOT want to draw armour. I just don't enjoy it. But once I decided to move away from that literal knight concep...
