What I'm doing





Some of you might wonder about updates on this blog.

It's been quiet lately, but not because I do not draw. I am currently following 2 on-line courses, so all my sparetime are devoted to that - except I do small ink sketches for my blog Tegneriet.

So far a new drawing each day on the blog and associated Fanpage on FB.

Some of the work for the patterndesign course, you can see on Lenes Images of Imagination: here.

Here is an example:



Take a look if you like, otherwise see you later on a-zoo :)

Eyes - studies


Study of eyes in pastels and pencil.
I showed one of the eyes in progress in pastels earlier, here's the final study.

The eyes are so important drawing living creatures, capturing soul and expression is important.

Some of my other work

I have a danish blog: Tegneriet, where I show some b&w art, done on the computer or handdrawn in ink. Small, simple drawings and illustrations, sometimes with a text added, but I think you can enjoy the images alone too :) Take a look, if you like :)

The secret ingrediens - book



Today I recieved the cook-book, that I have mentioned in this list: published.

The book "The secret ingredient" is made by idea of Dot Tadman who did a great job. It is a charity cookbook to raise funds for the UK organisation Frinds of Anchor.
Beside the delicate recipes are artwork by multiple artists included.

My contribution is the cp-painting of a highland cow as shown above. You can see on the back of the book, that I am in very fine company.

I hope and believe the book will raise lots of funds for the good cause.
