Using pieces of old prints, postcards and other paper scraps, I created these art journal pages. Making something new out of recycled material is a beautiful creative process.
Art Journalling
Time for creativity
During the holidays I had some time for creative work. These collages were made using existing drawings and pieces of paintings I did some time ago. Playing with color and putting together new combinations is a fun creative process.
Drawing with Natural Inks
Some time ago I took part in a workshop where we were shown how to turn leaves and fruit of different types of trees into natural inks. First we took a walk through the outskirts of town and picked the material, then we produced the inks and tried them out on paper. Among others we used fruits of maple trees, mahony or elder berries.
Summer Travel Sketches
While traveling through Greece this summer I did these small sketches of my impressions. Places visited were the monasteries of Meteora, the south of the Peloponnes as well as the islands of Chios and Hydra.
Beauties of the Ocean
More Beauties…
Combining the spontaneity of watercolors and the controlled outline drawings of fine marker pens can lead to quite interesting results…
Beauties of Nature in Watercolor
These beauties of nature were done using watercolor pencils and ink, starting with a simple outline and adding layer after layer of color.
