These are some of my more recent book cover sketches. I really enjoyed making them, searching for little stuff from the stories to include on the covers. (If someone from Book Publishing is reading this, maybe you could consider me for some book cover jobs? I would really enjoy designing a classical book set.)
Find out how I plan an illustration from start to finish. First I decide what I want to draw and look up inspiration in the big wide web. Then I figure out the shapes and where I want to put things. Then I write a list of things I want to have in the picture, a garden gnome, a painter, pots, pans, toaster, marmalade, a pig lamp, amelie, photos … After that I look up references for those things (here all from the film ‘Amélie’). Then comes the messy line art and when I’m pleased with the outcome puttygen ssh , I go over it with cleaner lines. Last but not least I colour it in 🙂

I currently have this thing with some of my friends, where a word is posted everyday and everyone in the group has to draw something regarding that word until the next day. Here are some of the things I drew. Most of them are a bit strange but it’s a very good thing to practice new stuff – and to have to draw something everyday.
Hello there, in this blog post you can find some of my recent gouache paintings. In the last half a year I only drew digitally and while I had a lot of fun with it, I started to get a kind of itching in my fingers to make something analog again. So on a rainy afternoon – as I stood at the bus stop next to the university I saw the art store over the street and decided to buy some gouache. I am having a lot of fun with this new medium and can’t wait to get better at it.
I also tried doing the Blissplantweek (a drawing challenge from the 14th to the 20th of July) with gouache. The challenge hasn’t started yet puttygen download windows , but I already finished the paintings 🙂 Oh, and here you can see how I paint in three steps:
In this blogpost you can find one of my recent projects in university. I had a course this semester where we made some book covers. I plan on making some more over my summer break because I had a lot of fun drawing those.
Some small things I made over the last two weeks. Featuring Erwin the frog, a reading garden gnome, Link, a wizard cat, a little witch, some dinosaurs and ghosts.
Hello friend, in this blog post you can find some recent and some a little bit older banners and logos I made for my Etsy Shop and my website. Every other month, when I look at my online stuff I am not entirely happy with how everything looks – so I usually remake all my headers. If you like what I do, just contact me and I could make a header or logo for your page or store or anything. Head on over to my Commissions section to look at what I already made. You can find a list of prices there too. But if you’re unsure about anything or just have some ideas, write me! I’d love to hear about them!

The first week of May I joined a drawing challenge. I had a lot of fun with it, trying out a new style I recently adapted & met a lot of cool illustrators. Check out the #bonvoyageweek2019 hashtag on Instagram to find all the other beautiful illustrations!
This was the prompt list: 1 Souvenir 2 Adventure 3 Map 4 Coast 5 Museum 6 Lost 7 City
I made some maps over the last weeks, one for my favourite game of this year so far & three places I want to visit someday.
