Title: Tic Tac Owl

Size: 31×68 cm.

Media: Ink on metal clock.

Availability: Private.

Comment: I went to IKEA and found this handsome fella. It was all white but had the orange blog magnets on it which really would fit my kitchen well. So I took it home and drew and owl on it. Neat huh?

I just wanted to give you guys an update considering it’s been a month.
Besides working on Tex here I’ve done a few more of those dadilydoo-shots. You know, those 16:9 abstract photos you all love.

Well. Check in soon. Have a good one.

Meet Rhynosarous Tex. This lovely creature is in its way to be dadilydone So far I’ve drawn most of the shapes out with pens and started to color bits and pieces. I think he will turn out nicely. It’s been a long time since I painted directly on cloth so this sure is well welcomed technique.

And Mr Lion is coming along nicely as well. Not much of an updated since last time, really. I just a fuckload of dots to the main swastika and did the smaller red ones a lot sketchier.  Other than that, no real difference.

A closer look at the dots. I love them and I hate them. Equally.

Oh, and here’s a piece I bet you never have seen. I started working on it months ago as a custom for a friend. However I’m not even sure she wants it any more since I take such a long time to finish it ^^, Haha!

Title: Lotus

Size: 80×80 cm.

Media: Ink and acrylics on canvas.

Availability: For sale.

Comment: The red background for this piece was painted months ago with my hands as a brush. I smeared the paint out on the canvas covering most of it. I even drew the shape of the flower and then I left it to be standing with its back to my living room wall. Until this weekend. The white lotus is painted with acrylics whereas the dripping red is actually black ink. Everything else is ink. The yellow colors you see is actually glimmering gold but I guess it looks quite gloomy in picture compared to reality.

A closer look.

I felt like spoiling myself.

So I bought a ton of new Uni Posca pens. This is just what I need to get my creativity going.

As for now I’ve started a few new projects that I’ll continue with and I got heaps of inspiration (and the right pens) to make another piece for the Disney-franchise. You know, the dead ones.

Hopefully I’ll upload something new early next week.

One of my all-time favorite artists is for sure the young and very talented Jinyoung Shin, also known as Daedally. Everything from her choice of color to fine detail in her work is incredibly inspiring and has helped me evolve quite a lot as an artist.

She used to have an account on devART but she has removed all her astonishing illustrations and all left on the web are the scraps left on her own webpage. I mourn for those who never got to see her mesmerizing work and can only hope she post them again for the public. Below is one of her best imagery that I seemed to have kept on my own HDD.

Besides a few remaining images on the all I can seem to find are the sketches that are posted on her website. Of course, I still love her work but I can never forget the striking imagery that provoked all my senses so deeply when I first saw them.

Another one of her more extensive work can be viewed below. However you really need to see it in a higher resolution to even be able to grasp her genius.

It’s not the first time Mr. Aquirax has influenced me with his 60’s posters but today I thought it was time to publish his work to anyone who might have missed him. Enjoy!

So I thought I might just give you another update just as well. I continued working on it and this is how it looks just right before I turn the lights out and call it a day.

I’ll pop some red into it and it will be awesome!

Just to show you I’m not dead I hereby introduce you to my next project. It’s so far made up from acrylics and brown ink. Unfortunately I’m running out of brown at the moment… Well. I’ll get some new ink soon, hopefully. The swastika is a bitch to fill but it’ll come around quite nicely.

At the moment I only have 1,5 mm pencils which means that large areas take quite some time. But I’ll keep focus on the lion and the sun on its head until I get larger markers.

Title: Soundtape

Size: 50×70 cm.

Media: Ink and acrylics on canvas.

Availability: Not for sale, private gift.

Comment: I made this for a friend, but not as a planned gift but rather as a spontaneous result of her giving me inspiration for a long time. It was really fun to work with the layers for this one. The vivid and playful dripping colour combined with the solid black markings from my ink pen worked nice together.
