Black Book January: Update #6
Today we travelled to Slovenia, so there was no time for art at all in the morning, but I plan to squeeze some mandala time in the evening, after blogging and before Netflix. I can show you now a work in progress, the one I started yesterday: It was very cold in the house when […]

Black Book January: Update #5
I have finished another mandala today: This one was quick and easy. I used Sakura gel metallic pens and white Uni Ball pen. I was sitting by the swimming pool and drawing. It was a great day: swimming, sauna, art and resting all day long. I really needed it. I also started some meditation […]

Black Book January: Update #4
Today I finally completed this mandala: The yellow parts are actually gold gel pen, but it’s not photographing well. Yesterday we went to Austria to that outlet, did some little shopping, had lunch and came back to our hotel. We spent the afternoon in the pool and sauna. It’s good, there are other guests, but […]

Black Book January: Update #3
I’ve been working on this one mandala for several days now. I used white posca pen for contours, and had a lot of trouble with it. It did not want to work and I started to shake it and then the paint came out of it on top of my drawing. I managed to clean […]

Black Book January: Update #2
This morning I finished the mandala that took several days to do: There were large areas to color with color pencils and then doodles also took awhile. Color pencils make the surface waxy and slippery, so doodling with ink on top is not very easy. I made lots of mistakes, but I am rather […]

Even a friend from Instagram joined and did several pieces. The goal of the challenge is to create something on black background. […]

Mandala: 27 December
Finished coloring the mandala which I made using one of my stamps: Sorry for the light… It did not want to be photographed under natural light: the whole piece had a blue tone, including paper, and I could not get rid of it. The artificial light actually helped in this case… Weird… Anyway, if you would […]

Mandala: 6 December
I am sitting at the car service, waiting for oil change. I was supposed to be here at 8.00 am, but was more than 45 minutes late, due to incredibly dense traffic. I got up at 5.20 am and got around half an hour of mandala coloring and doodling while drinking my coffee. The photo […]

Mandala: 4 December
This is the mandala I was working on for past several days. I finished it yesterday, but could take a photo only today. I am very pleased with it. It was done in my Black Book with white Posca pen, black Edding marker, Luminance6901, Sakura gel pens, and Rotring Isograph with white acrylic ink. Otherwise, […]

Play Journal Update: 14 October
I had a very long meeting on Wednesday, so I did some doodles in my Play Journal. I used only ballpoint pen. The photo is not so great, I took it this morning when it was still dark outside, so it’s under the lamp. You get an idea of the conditions under which I create […]
