ADAD #10: hello Inuit


Funny how experimenting with different materials and techniques can lead you to new designs and drawings. I used some left-over paint to make some circles (you never know when they come in handy...), then drawing a funny face and then seeing the Inuit wrapped in against the snow.

ADAD #9: in the forest


With some sienna EastIndian Ink I started the drawing, then finished it off with permanent marker and watercolour paint.

ADAD #7: take it one step further

I liked the technique of Modigliani, but of course it is more interesting to find my own style. So I took it one step further, and drew in my own style again a portrait. This time of a girl in winter. It is minus 10 degrees here, and even indoors it is a bit cold...
Looking at the picture I do not think I have found my own style yet.

ADAD #6: Modigliani portrait


A portrait made while looking at the style of Modigliani. It is again one of the exercises in the book Drawing Lab, which suggested you should take one of your parents in mind and then start drawing. So this is my father - Modigliani-style... he often wears blue and white coloured clothes.
I used a permanent marker, and watercolourpaint. It is very small, postcard-size.
