Owlspotting




Bijschrift toevoegen


























The hats, the pink binoculars, the scene just begged to be drawn. The winter sun had drawn out a crowd in Ghent to the Bourgoyen, one of our few nature spots. A birdwatcher had spotted an owl in the trees and a lot of passers-by stopped to spot it too.

Dunes











Another North Sea sketch/drawing. It was a beautiful sight to see this horse walking through the dunes.

Boat










We spent the end of year holidays at the North Sea coast, which inspired a few landscape drawings in my special landscape sketchbook - more or less true to reality. This one is inspired by the view on the Ostend Casino, turning the casino into a big boat building (there is actually an old hotel somewhere at the Belgian coast that looks like a boat, a bit like this one).

Tropical

My 'Tropical' submission for Illustration Friday is a pattern. I struggled with ink at first because it is less flexible than watercolour, but now it is becoming my friend, especially for the brighter colours...
