Canvas

Working on canvas! I finally had the guts to take that step. Don't get me wrong, these are small canvases, but still! It's a start.
All paintings are available through my Etsy store.

Acrylics on four times 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4 in) canvases.


Acrylics on 13 x 18 cm (5 x 7 in) canvas.


Acrylics on 13 x 18 cm (5 x 7 in) canvas (including some silver acrylic paint).

Just some stuffs

Well.

Lol, not much to say, actually. Here are some cards I didn't get around to uploading. And the last one is an acrylic painting (with a touch of ink) of Daniel on a horse in an awesome costume. I used reference for that one and I used it big time. I don't know the name of the original illustrator, but it came from a book about costumes during the Napoleonic wars... Yep.

Enjoy!

Sketch Dump III

I'm back from the Book Fair and it was awesome! I loved the networking and all the things I saw and heard were very inspiring. Including, of course, all the drawings, paintings, illustrations. Not only those in the exhibition, but also those on and in the books that the many, many publishers had on display.

I decided to follow up on that inspiration and once home I immediately bought some art materials I thought would be useful for expanding and improving my portfolio. So in the sketch dump below you see things I made to test my new acrylics (the ponies and, frankly, all the colored stuff) and at the very bottom I made a lino print. The black acrylic I used for that print didn't work out that well, so next time (or somewhere in the future) I'll use the right type of ink, but for now this will do. It's Aladdin, by the way, a modern version. I have one more sheet of lino and am thinking about making a follow-up to this running scene.
