Work in progress, though this isn't the style I'm going for anymore.

For in between. Still working on Fracture, but it's harder than I thought. This here is just because I was procrastinating again, as usual. Pretty much original size, that's why it's so squiggly...

Updated on a non-regular basis.

Topic 'World record'.

Ok, today I officially started working on a new font – Fraktur thingy with lots of ornaments. This is the first letter. I know, long way from being perfect. But just to give an idea which direction it's gonna be headin'.

Scribbles are about two months old. But why not?

On an article about native tribes generally being perceived as 'primitive'.

The finishing short project for which we had half a day. Find a headline in any recent newspaper and make an illustration for it. I chose mine from the sports section...

Yesterday we started our illustration workshop with a lecture by Mette Dreyer, an illustrator who works mostly for the big local newspapers. I don't get all the jokes, but the ones I do get are pretty funny. After that we did a couple of different exercises, which all included (very) quick idea finding and sketching as we were always pushed by time limits. We were also forced to use black ink and matches or thin brushes as tools. Some of my results for:

Five torsos of characters. 5 minutes for all. Otherwise free.

Combine two words into a new image. 1-2 minutes each.
Dog/Scissors – Key/Butterfly – Phone/Car – Brain/Box – Book/Sunglasses

Visualize words or newspaper headline. 2 minutes each.
Jealousy – Depression – "People Get More Sick of Food" – "Housing Will Be Cheaper in the Future" – Results
