This time of the year!

Dogs and their treasures
More dog drawings coming soon! I got so many requests to continue the dog drawings after the 100-day project- and I admit I missed drawing dogs- that I came up with an idea for a new project. When reviewing some of my personal favourites (not the dogs,...
Off to Kirrin, the process
Of course, it's inspired by my favourite books :-) I’ve been experimenting with a dip pen and ink. I have to say, it’s way less terrifying than it was back in my school days. Perhaps the pen is better? Or the ink thicker? At least until now, I...

Summer rain
It has been raining cats and dogs for a while now here in Sweden, making the outdoors look and feel like the greenest autumn ever. Mushrooms are popping up, streams flow wild, and mosquitoes dance over small puddles. Even when we're out without our coats as...
