Simple abstract i made a while ago. Acrylics. :)

Egg tempera

This is just a test, trying out egg tempera. Kinda interesting an natural paint compared to oil and acrylics. Dries extremely quick which is both good and bad..

Bored while waiting so i made this on some brown paper. Gotta buy me some new pens, all of my posca and molotows are giving up :p if you like to draw i really recommend them. :) been using them for years.. Never been into grafitti though.. But I did recently order some cans of spray paint :S.. Kinda scary, new area for me..

Work in progress, hopefully it turns out well. Havin fun with oil paint. Has it's advantages compared to acrylics. However it is really hard to build up something using thin layers, since it dries so damn slow. :P

This is a mix of water color, posca and molotow markers. And some fineliner work. Well it is kinda rough but i like it and may do something big in this style. :)

I try to sketch every time before I go to bed. Drawing is like using a diary. :) gnite

Sometimes when you paint or draw things just turn into shit and you feel like throwing it away. But you know what? Just continue anyway and even if it looks like shit in the end, who cares? For me it's just relaxing and fun no matter what. :)

Rough and fast drawing using ordinary crayons. Trying to limit myself to a specific set of colors and see what happens. :)

Had some fun using water colors. Had a really boring and gray day so I decided to paint something happy and colorful. :)
