  • Just a quick Sunday note to let you know that it’s done: I am not at all thrilled with how it looks, but I tried and have ideas for future and that’s what counts. We are having a very windy weekend and it currently looks like it’s going to rain. I had my morning run…

  • There was not too much time to work on my doodle this morning, but I am posting a small update: I have all the houses now, need to finish coloring and then to add more inky doodles. I started doing some doodles around the branches of the tree, simple circles, but they look cute to me. Here’s…

  • Yesterday I started another colored pencil doodle mandala shaped something. I had a sudden urge to draw houses. So houses it is: There is also a big tree there and we will see if something else will appear over next sessions. Here’s the full photo, so you can get a better picture of how it…

  • I brought some smooth cartridge paper with me, so I could try my Luminance 6901 pencils on it. It’s A3 size, which is a bit too large for me, but if I fold it in half, it seems to be perfect. I could do a bit larger drawing than usual, and it feels good: Also, it’s…

  • Another doodle: I used Stabilo water-based markers for the dots in the middle. I am not sure if I like them, as the dots are not really round because the marker tips are rather big, so it looks kind of weird. I am also not sure if the markers are lightfast. I assume not, because…

  • It’s a nice sunny Saturday. Almost hard to believe that there was a blue sky above those murky clouds we had during the whole week. This means that I will have to do my gardening today, no excuse. I don’t feel like going out, because even though it’s sunny, it’s very cold, so it means my hands will…

  • I did this one a couple days ago: I used blue, turquoise and sap green watercolors and ink markers. Today I am working on Book of Days again. It’s been raining for 48 hours, so no running on two mornings. Yesterday I went for a walk in the afternoon, in the rain, because I felt…

  • Ok, I am in a Book of Days mood this week. I finished Week 38 yesterday: Used acrylics and hot glue gun stencil for background, star stencils and heart mask (which I cut from paper) in the foreground. I colored the stars with Sakura Glaze pen in yellow, added black lines with Edding black paint marker…

  • Finally, I felt inspired to dive into Book of Days. I missed most of the course, but that’s ok. I will catch up eventually, I think 🙂 This is Week 40. Done with acrylics, sakura glaze pen in black, Faber Castell Pitt markers in red and yellow, Edding paint marker in black and white acrylic…

  • Another quick one because I am travelling today and have to start packing. I’ve been impressed by autumnal colors obviously. They are so amazing!  I’ve been working on other pieces too this morning, some watercolor doodles and faces. But more about those next week. Enjoy your Sunday, nice people!
