Cycling through the Amsterdam rain is no fun.
Captain Caveman
Unused illustration of Donald Trump as Captain Cavemen. Or thereabouts. Behind him he drags a deflated world. Commissioned by Handelsblatt. Drawn with Kyle brushes.

Hold tight Holland
Be open to things
Pretty much dreamt this one. Sometimes you just see them. Usually as you’re trying to wake up.
Wormerveer at night
This is based on the shop fronts of Zaanweg, the main drag through Wormerveer. Wormerveer is this funny little place just outside Amsterdam that smells of chocolate, because of the cocoa processing plants there. Behind the shops you can see glowing signage for Febo, Kruidvat, Hema, Blokker and Dirk van den Broek.
The beating heart of Osdorp
Remembering a foggy morning in Osdorp, looking towards Reimerswaalstraat from Ma Braunpad.
You see these little cars all over Amsterdam: the Canta LX. I’ve seen them all across the Netherlands actually but Amsterdam is where I’ve seen the most. I always thought it would be a great vehicle to go sketching in. You could fill it with pens and stuff. Maybe fit it out with a little karaoke machine too. But then someone reminded me that the Canta LX is more about facilitating mobility than drawing.
