Plants outside my house, by the wheelie bin, and out on the road. Drawn with ballpoint pen and isopropanol, pencil, colour pencil, gel pen, silver crayon and bamboo dip pen.
Lange Dyk
Drawing of Lange Dyk, which is near where I live in Westhoek. Blue ballpoint pen with isopropanol, plus gel pen and blue pencil.
Indonesian flavourings
Indonesian flavourings. Essential to the mix. Kecap Manis from ABC and Sambal Oelek from Albert Heijn. These are more experiments with the ballpoint pen and sprayed isopropanol, plus a little bit of blue pencil here and there. Next it’s Marmite.
Noud
Drawing of Noud, who was at the Creatievelingen samenwerkingen meetup last night in Leeuwarden. A really quick drawing.
Planet Jakarta
Another pen and ink from 1998. This one did get used in the book, at least in the first edition. I’m not sure if it made it to the later reprints.
Lunch at Stania State today
Sketch over a bite to eat at Stania State in North Friesland today. Nice.
St Jacobiparochie
Sketch of St Jacobiparochie from Oudebildtdijk. This is the view from the front of my house. Drawn and painted in ink, pencil, colour pencil, graphite, and gel pen.
My back garden this morning
My back garden this morning, as seen from the kitchen. Drawn in ink, pencil, colour pencil, gel pen, charcoal, and crayon (yes, crayon).
Sketches at NDSM
Two drawings at NDSM yesterday. Testing out a new sketchbook with Katsia.
Sketching at NDSM
Sketching at NDSM on Saturday with the Amsterdam Urban Sketchers. I realised just how rusty I’ve got at sketching. When I lived in Amsterdam, I wouldn’t think twice about whipping the sketchbook out.
