A test for the illustration.

Life Drawing

Some sketches from tonight's life drawing class. It's terribly difficult!

A week or so ago I was on a railway-station and saw the most beautiful girl. I had my sketchbook with me and felt compelled to sketch her, but I was to shy at the same time to approach her about it. So I glanced at her every now and then, while quickly trying to catch her on paper. The next time I'll try to sum up the courage to approach her:)

Sketches for a project I'm working on with a friend. I'm trying to find the right design for a little girl and her somewhat depressed mother...

Solaris

Now that the illustration is finished I'm actually not that satisfied with it...I think I raised the bar a bit too high. The illustration keeps lacking a certain 'unity'. On to the next time!

Breath of Heaven

I recently discovered a beautiful Christmas song, 'Breath of Heaven', written by Amy Grant and covered by Oleta Adams among others. It tells the nativity story from Maria's point of view and deals with the struggles she goes through. I thought it would make for a nice illustration. My 'Solaris' illustration is almost finished (I'll post it soon), so I made some sketches for my new project 'Breath of Heaven'.

Two of my roommates yesterday, were embedded in a heavy theological discussion. Luckily I was around.
