chubby bird

Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was wonderful, I finally got to do some things I’ve been postponing for a  while. Also, in the spirit of “utilizing everything” decision I finally finished shooting a roll of film that’s been in one of my cameras for almost 4.5 years! Hopefully I won’t wait for another 4.5 years to get it developed :)

And, the drawing you can see above? Well, it’s just one of many drawings I’ve done recently but most of them still need to be scanned or photographed and shared with  world. This one in particular is called Chubby bird for obvious reasons, it’s drawn on A4 format paper and colored with watercolors.

 

a big rug

Okay, okay, of course I haven’t actually knitted a rug. I drew a big, colorful pattern that reminds me of a rug. The  drawing was made on 21×29 cm (A4 format) 200gms paper using black and red uni ball rollers and Stabilo pens. I had so much fun drawing it, it was an enjoyable and simple weekend mini-project.

Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty uneventful and laid-back (which I loved) and spent mostly making things, eating good food and listening to obscure 90′s punk rock bands! Yay!
Here is a little showcase of:

Sometimes there is nothing more relaxing than drawing a big pattern! I felt like I needed to get rd of some stress this weekend so I doodled this big piece (it’s 30×40 cm) and it was very therapeutic.

*messy cards*

In art, I love seeing accurately drawn, clean (and usually uninterrupted  ) lines and I’m always striving to better the quality of lines in my  work and to draw them with confidence. But sometimes, I also feel like  taking a break from accuracy and control and just want create messy  stuff : ) So, a couple of days ago I took a bottle of ink and dipped a  grill stick into it and started drawing and making messy lines on cards.  Later I colored them with crayons and ended up with fourteen messy  cards, different than my usual style.

I also made some gift tags using mini prints of my illustrations and ended up turning one of them into a key chain.

happy coffee

 

 

I love coffee! Will you have a cup with me?

 

 

pancake love
Everyone loves pancakes. Well, at least this dog does. I do too. I tried “chubby pancakes” ( or American pancakes as I call them as opposed to skinny ones a.k.a. crepes) first time this Winter when Arlen made them and I loved them!

And, as you’ve probably guessed by my latest posts this is yet another page from my sketchbook.
I wish you all wonderful weekend!
