Inktober 2019 – Wrap Up

  I actually planned to share the rest of my Inktober drawings with you piece by piece, like I did with the White Rabbit from Alice in Wonderland, but realized that I did far too many drawings to do this in time before Christmas (which unbelievably is due in just a couple of weeks –

Follow The White Rabbit

“Oh dear! Oh dear! I shall be too late!”  Sounds familiar? 😉 These are the famous first words by the White Rabbit, a fictional character in Lewis Carroll‘s book Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. He appears at the very beginning of the book, in chapter one, wearing a waistcoat, and as illustrated here, always consulting his pocket watch. (I don’t

Doodling to Become Zen

  I´m sure many of you did feel just as stressed out over the last holidays as I did. Which if you think of it, is ridiculous really, we should feel happy and excited, like we did when we we´re kids. I mean – it´s the holidays, right? So, to help me get into a

Parlez-vous français?

  Do you speak French? Or are you planning to learn it? I´ve been on and off the train “Learning French” for the past two years – well, more off than on, if I´m honest. 😉 And to be even more honest with you: I was quite fed up with myself for not already being

Some Impressions of My Week

    If you ever wondered what I do when I feel bored – this is it! I simply sketch everything that´s right before my eyes. These sketches are some visual impressions of last week. They are not “Oh my God! What an awesome week you must have had!”-kind of sketches, but simply show you

5th of May – Cartoonist´s Day

Today is Cartoonist´s Day!!! Two of my very favorite cartoonists are Albert Uderzo and Hergé, the first is the comic book artist and co-author of Asterix, the second is the creator of “The Adventures of Tintin“. I did both these drawings a few days ago two honor these fabulous artists and hope they would find their
