Melb

















Another sketch for Melbourne. I will have to make the pic less detailed in the final piece, but for the time being I'm not gonna limit it too much. I'd rather experiment on my own "handwriting" than create artificial boundaries at the moment. I know the big scale will change the process naturally without me having to do anything else than be creative with it. Went to Make Your Mark Gallery today to get some markers, they are so nice! Will try and do one piece with them before I go.

The Street Monsterrr

















I'm traveling to Melbourne in a month and hoping to get a chance to create some murals (or at least one!) while in there. This is a sketch to get some ideas what to do - I'm thinking of getting some cool markers and drawing this rather than painting. I gave Make Your Mark Gallery a ring yesterday and they said they have markers up to 3 cm thick tips. That sounds pretty damn awesome - also they said you can just buy an empty marker and mix your own colours and fill it up. I think I confused the sales guy saying I feel a bit dizzy of joy hearing something like that. But anyways. Happy days. Something really nice coming up soon...

A Runner























Seems like I'm gearing more and more towards
these collage characters at the moment. Today I have been
scanning about 3 million pages with little fellas on them,
so much fun! I'm still working on the technique that'd
work best on collage - well at least I executed
a major improvement just by buying decent paper
glue today! Simple things...

The Sketchbook Project Starting Point


















This is the view I see every morning. Looking at this, it's plain insanity to start a project under a theme "It's Summer Where You Are". I'm determined to fight against this sadness. Look at this. Someone has thought of this place, designed it for people to live, to be happy. I really need instructions from that person.

I think the Sketchbook project will be a continuation for my MA project where I tried to understand what makes spirit of a place. Basically my aim is to explore whether you can create your own reality 100 %. I want it to be that way. But I don't think it's entirely possible unless you're a Buddha. I want to understand this. The search continues.

What Happens When You Can't See the Faces Anymore?

The Nerve Center


















I'm dreaming of a giant desk with a permanent collection of random mess! Think indefinite source of all things beautiful. I've just started working on a book cover and this is how it starts, creating small visual notes here and there, a brain puzzle.
