inSometimes I stare at the paper and nothing happens. Really nothing.
No inspiration, no brilliant ideas and it scares the shit out of me. I’m afraid of the white paper, of the pressure I have make a masterpiece, or at least something that is really good.
Sometimes I just close my sketchbook and sometimes I scribble a bit.
Today I tried to draw a naked body just by heart. It sucks, I know. But it’s about progress. I have to start somewhere. I just drew it, without letting the paper scare me. It will suck 10 out of 11 times, but that 11th time it will be awesome! 😉

An experimental journey today. Today I got me some art supplies and I stumbled upon black paper. Yes, black paper. I remebered I had some white crayons, wich I finally could use on my black paper. This is my first time to draw on black paper. It basicly means you have to draw the light instead of the shades. And that’s new.
Step one was to decide te draw on black paper, but what to draw for the first time on black paper. Thinking, thinking and thinking. Maybe something in the dark, but what. What is light in the dark? It’s the moon. So here a half moon on black paper. Not too happy with the result, but eh first thing for everything, right?

Here is the thing; I started today a little too enthusiastic with my drawing. The piece is too big to finish in one evening for me during a workday. So I decided to finish it in two nights. I was wondering, if I could do that. But than again, my project, my rules!
But not to leave you empty handed I give you a little sneak preview. Maybe you already can guess what I’m drawing! It is not a dragon! 😉

Friday the 13th, not an inspiring day all. Not that I’m supersticious or afraid, but it was a long week. I really had no inspiration at all, so I just started scribbling a bit and I ended up drawing letters. I really used to like that, I really can’t tell you why. Probably it would go much faster using some software for this. But sometimes I’m very old school.

Today I cheated, my spiritual pencil was empty. Staring at the paper for ages. And staring and staring even falling asleep. So I decided to think outside the box. If I used paper, but not just for drawing, it’s still creative and arty, right? I made an origami crane out of drawing paper.
The Crane represents a fortune bringer in Japan and it is a symbol for a long life. It is also said if you make a thousand origami cranes your wish for a healthy life will be granted. I never tried it actually.
