Monotype

This is a monotype I made last week.

Homesick

Here are some monotypes I did yesterday about comfort and feeling safe. It is based on a drawing I did of my sisters when they awkwardly fell asleep on top of each other with blankets, pillows and sweaters surrounding them. I wanted to play with line and surface, and see what would happen when I painted body and cloth from an unusual angle, abstracted it in parts by treating the body more as a landscape. There is something about a stack of sisters (or cousins) sleeping on top of each other (one probably drooling just a little bit on the other) that is just so familiar and humorous to me.

Adventure time

I finished this editorial illustration yesterday. My assignment was to go on a short adventure and bring something I saw into an illustration based on a photograph I took during the summer. It was a challenge. In this case, my audience are young girls and teens. I wonder what the world thinks?

Moodboards

These days I am really loving the look of moodboards, which allows me to play with overlapping images, objects and text. Since I just recently decided that my bachelor assignment (aka thesis) will be in the form of moodboards or magazine spreads, I thought I would demonstrate here what you will see a lot of in the future. So keep following ;) I made this one in March this year.

Hope will find them grey

These are the first two monotypes I have ever done. They are both original prints, one is a ghost of the other. I am so excited to learn more about printmaking! This semester I am taking a monotype class. Conclusion: You will find many more prints here in the future.

Autumn has arrived!

To be found in my sketchbook. Just finished the colors. Enjoy the beautiful autumn weather (Come sunshine, rain or wind)!
