antwerp by night

i'm in an ink mood these days.

back to church


this time i spent some more time on shading and all, even though my arm was really bothering me (i think i overworked it)

trying some things

an attempt on drawing a scary forest, for an illustration assignment. i should get it a bit darker and more tree-like.

karma police comic

i once said i'd post a comic version of the song 'karma police' by radiohead, and then forgot about it. sorry!

since phtocopies didn't provide the quality i needed to get a good scan out of them, i decided to make photos of the originals. the photocopies are good enough for my sketchbook though.


of course the originals look better, but that's an everlasting problem.

a new dress (finished)

by adding an elastic waistband, a polkadotted bag turns into an actually wearable dress.

one more for the sake of it...


i even have my own label!
(found these somewhere around the house and i thought it would be fun)

this is the first piece i made from a pattern, found it some time ago on the internet but i can't seem to find the link now...

ps: some people pointed out they couldn't answer because they didn't have a google account. i fixed this now, so anyone can leave a note.

andrew bird cd cover

some time ago, a friend gave me a link to a free andrew bird concert to download. i thought the show (and the sound quality) were good enough to put it on a cd, so i did (spread over two cd's). and then i thought those needed a cover, so i went to work with paper and glue, and this is what i came up with:


the full show is still online and can be found here

food

happy new year everyone!

since the last few days have been occupied with opening presents and celebrating, i haven't got anything new to show you. so instead i'll show you some of my father's interestic graphic work: he made it his quest to make my dinner more interesting, which turned out like this:


spinach burger and chopped tomato


spinach burger, fried eggs, carrot.
