This is all I got around to doing yesterday. A landscape scene in Bhutan, that I found through “random street view” – I’m not that strong in landscapes and it’s something I’d like to improve, so this site might be a way to quickly finding some more or less useful scenes.
I think that this one could have been a little better with more detailing in the foreground. But how do you actually draw trees and shrubs?

This is a sketch I did for someone called Taryn – I like how it turned out with the eyes, and I threw in that black outline that I’ve done a few times recently. I can’t decide if it’s good or bad though – I suppose it depends weather the drawing aim to be realist or not.
Here’s one that probably lacked a little effort. I think i finished it too quickly, and I didn’t put enough effort into measuring out the sheet of paper beforehand.
And lastly – this is a portrait that I just finished for the winner of my recent pet portrait giveaway
The cat in the picture is called Cuzz-Wuzz, and her “mom” is a cat-blogger over at DashKitten.com

This is another commissioned cat-portrait that I’ve been working on yesterday and today. It’s in ballpoint pen with added watercolor, and I think it turned out quite all right. I drew this one from a mix of multiple photos – I wasn’t sure that it would turn out great to cut and paste that way … Read more

Hi everyone. For once, this isn’t a cat drawing! Almost three months ago, I did a watercolor portrait of Toke Talagi, the premier of the little island state Niue, far, far to the east of New Zealand. It’s among the smallest “countries” of the world with 1500 inhabitants. Some time after that, I got an … Read more

Here’s a cat that Glogirly requested. He’s called Waffles, and i hear that he likes to eat chicken. (And to sing) I got a commentary from someone who thought that by ballpoint-pen drawings could look nice if I added some watercolor. Little did he know that I’ve already done quite a few drawings with that … Read more
Yesterday, one of my followers on the tumblr-version of onedrawingdaily (his username is Emkinkade) suggested that i might try and mix the “line tools” like ballpoint pen with a liquid tool (I’ve got a bottle of india ink). I tried it on this Bhutanese landscape. I think it looks better the farther away you get … Read more
This month in the virtual paintout is in Bhutan. I picked this view from streetview I actually wrote a couple of lines about how dissatisfied I were with this painting, but noone want’s to hear me whine about it, I suppose. While some things frustrate me, other parts is not half bad. I’m going to … Read more
