228 Watercolur leaf
This is a leaf that I’ve had lying around since there were still some leafs on the trees.. It’s gotten a little crisp since then. It doesnt’t look a lot like the “original”, but who cares. See my earlier leafs here

227 my hand in watercolour
I don’t know much about colours, but approaching this one, i thought that i saw some red and some green in my hand. These two tints are ofcourse very sutle on a base of “skin-tone” – i don’t know what else to call this color – but i didn’t know how to get the skin-tone, … Read more
226 Still life #2 – Pumpkin, watch, lighter and ink-bottle – In watercolour
So this is real watercolour-paper, and i can clearly see the difference from the other “smooth” paper i have been using. This one absorbs a lot more water, and the colour spreads easily with the water. There’s definetly some ground-rules to get down in terms of wet on wet vs wet on dry – and … Read more

See the original here Skulls and bones are quite facinating… I’d like to have some kind of object in the house that could be interresting to draw repeatedly from different angles and with different light-settings.. Not a human skull – don’t worry ! But something that has an organic interesting shape with bumps, holes, cracks … Read more
222 Self-portrait #27
Here we go again. I got a comment from Matthias pointing out that my self-portraits seem to be much less realist than my other portraits. He’s right, and I’ve been thinking the same for some time. So with this one, i have tried to take my time, focus, and be precise about it – I … Read more
221 Portrait of Le Corbusier
This is a portrait of the Swiss architect Le Cobusier. In reality his head is a little less round and his jaw a little less shaded.
219 Portrait of Arne Jacobsen
I can’t post the photo, because I took it from a book – I can say, though that the resemblance is not 100% there – I do like the end result though. The proportions could be better as well.
