De hele week al hoorde ik steeds dit liedje voorbijkomen van Train: "Drops of Jupiter". Niet dat ik hier nou iets speciaals mee heb, maar één regeltje bleef maar steeds hangen..."while you were looking for yourself out there"...
Tsjaa , volgende week alweer 55 (*zucht* waar blijft de tijd...) en af en toe heb ik 't gevoel dat ik nog steeds 'zoekend' ben, haha....In mijn werk, hoe ik daarmee verder wil, maar vooral ook in mijn kunst (je kent dat wel, twijfel twijfel, ben ik wel goed genoeg...wat wil ik hier nou mee...wat is nou mijn eigen stijl....)
Afijn, lang verhaal, maar daar kwam dus deze tekening van! Hieronder een hele serie W.I.P. oftewel work in progress...
All week I kept hearing this song on the radio by a group called Train: "Drops of Jupiter". Not that it means something special to me, but somehow this one line kept playing in my mind: "while you were looking for yourself out there"...
Well...next week I'll be 55 (*sigh* time flies...) and every now and again I feel that I'm still 'looking' for myself , haha...In my work, what & how I want with that, but especially in my art ( you know the feeling, doubt, doubt....am I good enough...what do I want with this....how can I ever find my own style...)
Okay, long story, but this is how this drawing came about! Below you find a series of pics of the W.I.P.
Btw , I came upon this idea by a video on youtube by Ulrike Hirsch. She starts with words and then doodles all around them...
What I used (of course haha) for coloring: my lovely Inktense pencils and 'normal' Caran d'Anche colored pencils. Black fineliners of course, and white Posca pens.
Bye for now, and may you find yourself & lots of happiness in your artmaking :) :)

Oh and of course: HAPPY HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
