Time flies by so fast, especially when life is stressful. I miss being online and seeing all your beautiful art, I also miss posting art to a degree. Doing lots of sketches and soul searching right now. Lots of ideas for new characters and new projects.... but so little time.

So I was at MCC/bookfair Leipzig last weekend, and it's always so incredibly hard to get back into my daily routines. I miss my friends, I miss laughing with them and talking about the stuff that excites us, all the while being surrounded by all these creative people, comics and books.

Sketchbook page. Done last year, in a nervous state, because it was the evening before my cat's dental. You know. I mostly made and make a lot of pretty clean art. But honestly? I love this raw, sketchy look, too. Done with marker and one of my favourite tools: Neocolor Wax Pastels ✨

Sketchbook page, a portrait of a person with long hair, their hand is on their shoulder, a fish peeks out from under their hair. The coloring is rough, unfinished. There are bold marker strokes in green, dark green and yellow, and some shading and hatching done in wax pastel, which makes the areas very textured.

Thank you all for 1500 Followers 💙 Especially because my posting routine is like nonexistent and I'm in the middle of an identity search concerning my art ... it makes me happy there are people who enjoy what I'm posting and want to see more. Thank you all! 🌿💙

Moon set, worked from an earlier plein air study showing the Belt or Venus (pink band) and our earth’s shadow the blue band just above the horizon (I learnt about this later)

I know it's already the 3rd today and I also haven't posted in a while...but: I wanted to wish everybody a Happy New Year! I hope it will be kinder for everybody. It's easy to lose hope these days, but I also believe that little things can go a long way, so I'll continue to try my best each day.
