Hedgehogs and Bears

New job from Sylveco. Many little animals run over my desk now.

The Lost Thing Goes Out Into The World

Fan art on truly ancient watercolor paper. It belonged to my Grandma, when she was quite young.  My mother has found it in the bottom of a drawer. A3 block, no cover, so the make is unknown to me. The paper is still good, just yellow. The lightest part of the street, this is the “white” of this paper. The characters belong to Lost Thing movie, one of my most favorite animations ever.

Rose

This is another watercolor picture for Nicky. Roses are hard to draw; you do your best not to paint a chocolate box decoration and still make them look good as they deserve. Usually it doesn’t go too well. I’m not completely satisfied but this is a small step forward, when comparing with my previous rose picture.

Flowers for Nicky

Watercolor flowers for my friend Nicole.

Something sunny

New Year, new pictures to draw. This one is for little Mathilda. I have promised her something sunny.

From My Garden

Watercolor just for myself. It would be a pity to ignore the summer in the garden!

Sultan Daughter

This legend is about a Christian knight who was rescued from the slavery by his true love; they stayed together forever, never mind the knight’s wife waiting in the castle… and they got blessing from the pope. Sounds like a scenario for early Hollywood movie, doesn’t it? I can hardly belive this story comes from Middle Ages.

Ickendorf

Each next legend in Astrid’s set is more crazy then the previous one, I think. This one is about an underwater town, to be seen just once a year and for a short while.

Carrot Story

Another German legend illustrated for Astrid, and this one is quite funny…
