Happy St. Patrick's Day!

YAY! Today is St. Patrick's Day! It's so sad that here is no party going on today with some nice irish folk and lot's of Murphy's.

But i'll have a drink on the Irish tonight. Maybe i'll even colour them green (american style :)).


PS: You might have seen, that i missed the last 'Illustration Friday' entry. It's because i'm quiet busy these days, so i might have barely time to do anything in these direction. But I try to give it another try this week. (Topic is 'Heavy')

Illustration Friday - Leap

My first painting for the 'Illustration Friday' cause. The word of the week was 'leap'.
I set myself the goal to finish the painting in 20 minutes. (mostly, because I don't have the time right now to do something more timeconsuming, but shhhht ;))

The painting is fully done in Photoshop with brush-, dodge- and burn-tool. oh and the 'blur' tool too.

Illustration Friday?

Okay. This blog seems to be one of the living dead. It always takes me ages to write something and since the poor and embarassing defeat on NaNoWriMo, I don't know if I should do this here, but okay, here we go:

MizK (you kinda get me in artistic trouble all the time, can't you see? ;)) encouraged me to participate on the 'Illustration Friday' project. The idea is as simple as interesting: Every Friday there is someone coming up with a word/topic with which you have to do some artwork with it (oh gees, is my english crappy *sigh*).
And since I always wanted to reactivate those bloody muses on my side, I think it's a good idea.

Most of my works might be pencil-drawings, digital drawings or illustrations, oilpaintings and maybe i'll try some other material like watercolors.

Now I have to wait until Friday (hey, it's like every week. :))
