Girl in Paris (selling flowers )

Today I finished this drawing of a girl in old-fashioned Paris, she's selling flowers. I got my inspiration from a book with a lot of incredible old pictures of Paris. I did change some things to make it my own and I'm defenitely going to do more of these Paris-works!

Sad willow in the cold blue ( or: Sad Sparkling Willow in Vacantness )

I just painted this willow. I am going to add something else to it but it has to be something really good, and I haven't got anything in mind yet! So that's why it's only a lonely willow, but I like him :) Just as he is standing there.
This is also my entry for Illustration Friday's "vacant".



And a colour variation I did digitally



This is the final drawing. I'm going to leave it like this, just simple. Added a few "dots"

Arrogant dog out for a walk

I'm still working on the background, but it's hard! ( Maybe I'm just going to draw a simple, light-coloured Eiffel-tower, something recognizable ). But I have to admit that I'm proud of the fence, the dog and the trees! Oh, and I like the colours. Hope you like it too! Let me know.

Anyway I called this drawing "Arrogant dog out for a walk". I think you'll understand!



( Made the drawing a little darker, digitally. Because I couldn't get it right with my camera )

Happy Birthday - cake

Last evening I got totally fascinated by this photo



This delicious birthday-cake was made by a woman who makes the most beautiful creations ( check out more: http://flickr.com/photos/icingdreams/)

So I decided I wanted to draw this cake. And this is the result.


When I was done I thought the cake looked ok, but I wasn't happy with the over-all look. So that's why I added some more cakes which I made up myself. And NOW I'm happy!



!! Please !! Click on the picture to watch it full-sized because the colours look awful in this small version!

My personal Rainbow

Look, I've got a personal rainbow!

Cupcakes

I have always loved cupcakes. I still love cupcakes. I will always love cupcakes. They are just yummy yummy yummy!

Animal sleep-over

All animals look cute when asleep. So how cute would it be if there would be an animal sleep-over?

Colourfully striped

I just drew another one. I've really tried to look at the curves of the hairs and the light to create depth in this drawing. I'm satisfied although the dog is looking a bit sad. Maybe he doesn't like his colours!

The beginning of The Dogs Book

Hello,

Today I got the idea of making a little book about dogs. All sorts of dogs.. small dogs, large dogs, cute dogs, funny dogs. And I'll be drawing all of them.

These sugary poodles are the first result. I am going to use my own fantasy to change the dogs when I think this is necessary. And in the case of the poodles, I thought it would be brilliant if we would have coloured poodles! Babyblue with lavender, sugary pink with fresh orange... Hope you like them and please check out for more to come!
