Hi there!

Summer is drawing to a close, so I'm back on the internet again. Although I plan on spending less time here, I'm also curious as to what everyone's been up to :-)

I had such a great summer, enjoying the wonderful and exceptional weather, the long lazy days, reading books by my favorite authors, and yes, also drawing a bit. I didn't paint, I just didn't feel like it, and I even had to force myself to draw. Initially that is. Now I'm having fun trying to draw a little bit every day. I'm totally back into doodling. I'm planning on making a calendar with doodles, I already have 12 drawings, but they're all in different stages of progress, with none completely finished yet.

Here are some things that I did finish:

sketch ... (graphite and coloured pencils)

 and another one in my art journal with gelli-printed pages (graphite)

And here's a doodle that I did finish (not for my calendar):

And that's all I have to show for now!

Except for the funnies and thinkies of course. Enjoy ;-)

Linking to Paint Party Friday, and hoping to see lots of people there!

Thanks for your visit! Wishing you much joy today, and a happy and relaxing weekend!

Take care ♥ ♥ ♥

Still playing

with my new painting. I'm enjoying it so much, I love playing with colours and this painting is one big colour-party :-)

Here's some more progress-pics:

It's a big canvas (80 x 80 cm - 31,5"x 31,5") so I still got a lot to cover. I drew some figures and some random lines, but mostly I just make it up while I go. It's fun!

Didn't manage to make a second sketch this week, to make up for the week I missed, but I did make one for this week:

I'm getting a bit bored with these sketches, and I might switch to something else. I don't like doing the same thing over and over again, I need to change regularly. Might change to doodles or something else entirely. We'll see :-)

That's it for now. Linking to Paint Party Friday tomorrow and looking forward to visiting all of you. Just some funnies and thinkies left :-)

  celebrating earth day ... :-)

Take care, have fun and see you next week! Thanks for dropping by ♥ ♥ ♥

Quick post

The kids have two weeks holiday from school, and somehow I never get much art done then. It's not as if they're still small and need looking after, one is 17 and the other is 15, but still. My daily routine is just that bit different and it's hard to fit the art in.

I just managed to do a sketch. Not very happy with this one, somehow she reminds me of a dog, but, well, it IS a sketch ...

I did paint a bit, and oh, it's so much fun. I always love trying out new things. I get bored easily so I need to change things up a bit every now and then ;-)

And that's all for this week. Except for the funnies and thinkies of course :-)

Here goes ....

Linking up to Paint Party Friday, the weekly blog hop-party where everyone is welcome!

Thanks so much for your visit. I hope your day is kind to you, and I wish you a warm and joyful weekend! 

See you next week ♥ ♥ ♥
