  • My first ever try to film my painting process. This is how I usually draw, and with that I mean randomly and without a concept in mind starting out. It sort of grows as it comes along. If I ever do this again I promise Ill grab a better webcam and a much better video editing program, and mirror it correctly.

    The painting is done with ink and white gouache on brownish sketch paper. The star signs over the doors are Ursa Minor and Hercules.

  • This is from April something this year, I didnt like it at all at first but are starting to. The stuff I saw as mistakes in the beginning is starting to grow on me (like the very short arm). It happened during my two hour wait between art school and the Folklore class I was taking at the university. We had model studies in oil every tuesday afternoon, and I was always stuck with the pose of the model behind my retina because of staring at it for three hours straight. So I thought Id see if I could put it down on paper directly from my mind. With a lot of alterations and a background this is the result. Its black pen, with no pre-sketching, in my moleskine.

  • This is a quick paraphrase of one of my favorite album covers of all time: Kate Bush 'Never for Ever'. Nick Price is the man behind the artwork and I advice you to check him out. Phenomenal artist!



    My dad, who has great taste in music, had the LP record and Ive always drooled over it. I was a fan after only having seen it on the web but in real life it is so much greater. So recently he decided to sell of his LP collection, and I got to take this jewel home with me. Ive had it in the window in front of my computer desk/dining table since then. When I move it will get a great spot on the wall, its such a huge inspiration in anything concerning art I do.

    So one evening I sat down with this black piece of passepartout board and white coal pencils and had no idea what I was gonna draw. I started with the leaves at the bottom with no aim whatsoever and then it just grew from there. The woman and wind was added last, and as you can see her pose is basically directly taken from the album cover.

    Its gotten a bit more smudged than I wanted to since then, but I just blame it all on the wind.

  • Sometimes my attention span checks out during school lectures. Specially since we have them between 9-11 and Im not fully awake until after lunch. What happends then is I stop taking notes and start doodling instead. I put the heart next to stuff I take a liking to and mean to check up once I get home. I have about 500 hearts in my notes from the past years, and Im superlame at going through them, but one day or week or month (depending on the amount of hearts) I bloody well will.

  • This is the first trial drawing in my new brownish sketching paper pad. Highly unfinished but I dont think I ever will finish it either, so what the heck. Im being to frickin picky about what I show in my blog either way. Im starting to realise this isnt my portfolio, so I can jabber away and show you guys whatever. Hopefully Ill keep the interest up easier that way. Its black and white coal pencils.
