Work finally progressed!

At last, getting to the end of that one. Long overdue, it was meant for Andreas'birthday (4 months ago that is). Work gets into the way, av og til.

Still need a few touches, I'll post a better picture (or scan) another day.

Finally added something to that notebook cover.

Underground New York Public Library

Have a look at the Underground New York Public Library, a project from the photographer Ourit Ben-Haim, collecting images of the NYC Reading Riders.

A side remark, since then I started noticing how few people are actually reading books in public around here, at bus stops, airport lounges, ferries or in the Jærbanen. Mostly reading magazines and being busy with their phones. Quite a striking difference when I remember my commutes in and out of Paris.

Maybe the commutes are too short here. Or they have time to read at home.

Yes, it's an excuse, I haven't made any half-decent drawing in ages.

Weather in Fanø

À la manière de ...

Where I found again that Moleskine paper (the sketchbook ones) isn't that keen on wet colors and doesn't resist anything if remotely humid. Annoying.

Finally finalized that one! This is the back cover of my new notebook, new as of February this year that is. That's one off the list of started, not yet finished projects. Next, the front cover...

Stavanger Sykehus

Not been posting much lately. Haven't been drawing much either. Part of the reason is we haven't fully recovered yet from Andreas'trip to the hospital a couple of weeks ago. More worries than danger but it still comes out as a rather straining experience.
Apart from his ongoing passion for tractors, after being "stabbed" 17 times for allergic reactions, Jr picked one item from the toys drawer, a shiny bracelet. But he got a tour at EIK Senteret this last weekend - in our parts of the world there is no better way to spend a Saturday morning - and got to sit in a huge Massey Ferguson.
