ADAD #28: last one, title: "watching"

Me watching him, he watching something else,

some of you might recognise him...

ADAD #27: quick pencil sketch

 "don't overthink it, just enjoy it" is what I thought while drawing this quick sketch

ADAD #26: young female

I love drawing faces, like this one, but also the more complicated live models,

there is a lot to see: the shape of the eyes, the shadows, wrinkles, type of mouth and so on.

ADAD #25: beards all around

Lately you see a lot of men wearing beards, long full beards, 

so I drew one of them with pencil.

ADAD #24: pencil drawing

Pencil drawing, looking forward to spring!

ADAD #23: and one in red

a bit of folkore...

ADAD #22: another one

Hello yellow flower!

ADAD #21: playing with crayons

Making some symbols with kids crayons. Sorry for the dark picture...

ADAD #20: weird dog

A quick scribble made this dog...

pen and pencil

ADAD #19: apples

My love for patterns and apples combined!

ADAD #18: folklore

Inspiration from a vintage book on folklore embroidery, 

these colour combinations and stripes were used in Arabic embroidery.

Made my own version of it.

ADAD #17: border collie

"Hi! I've got my portrait taken, what do you think?"

ADAD #16: this man again

quick drawing of the man again, maybe I should give him a name?

ADAD #15: study of a man

As I wrote earlier on my blog, I am making sketches of this man 

in order to make a painting in the end. Each sketch turns out different, still learning...

(permanent marker)

ADAD #14: poppy flowers

This is a drawing I made for a small assignment for invitation cards. 

It took a bit longer than I thought, but that is part of the handmade process!

(waterpaint and pencil)

ADAD #13: tropical bird

 hello tropical bird, how are you?

pen and pencil

ADAD #12: from the beach

Waterpaint and blue fineliner, watery colours, nice to experiment with them.

ADAD #11: flowers

Flowers in red and blue, longing for spring!

Waterpaint and colourpencil.

ADAD #10: more pink

I love the permanent markers with their thick points, 

I combined this scribble with some waterpaint.

Nice to focus on details and see how that works out!

ADAD #9: in pink

 Drawing number 9, a man in waterpaint-pink.

ADAD #8 composition 2

oil pastel

Different colours, different composition, not sure about this...

ADAD #7 composition

oil pastel

Mixing colours with a material I really like, but still do not understand completely...

ADAD#6: weird

A doodle with ballpoint turned into this drawing, the whole picture is quite weird, but it has given me some inspiration for patterns, surprising!

(ballpoint with waterpaint)

ADAD #5

Waterpaint with pencil.

French mansion, longing for a holiday in France!

ADAD #3 and 4

I used a red pencil to draw this bird, spring seems to come early this year!

Portrait, waterpaint with pencil.

A Drawing A Day project, #1 and #2

 

Yes! This year I am doing this drawing-project again in the month of February. 

Okay, I am a bit late already, February came a bit too soon. I will try to make a drawing each day, to stimulate my own inspiration, knowledge and drawing-skills and I hope you like them too!

I thought about working with a theme but could not find a suitable one, 

I think i'll focus on using different techniques and materials just to see where it leads me to.
