A quick sketch, this. Of a place to rest. Out in the woods. Where you do it best. I hope you are doing alright, and that you're having a good day!

Going Down to the Beach
I've been drawing a lot of quick pen sketches over the years, featuring mountain sceneries. But I rarely take the time to visit the beach. So, this time, I decided to just have some fun with it. And make a quick visit. So here it is. My day down at the beach: I hope you…

It’s Tough Being a Crab
When I was a kid (and still to this day, to be honest), I always start turning over rocks when I'm down by the water. The reason, of course, being the possibility of finding a crab. As a kid, when we wanted to catch a big one, we also used to put some goodies on…

Different Types of Trees
There are many ways to draw a tree. In my early drawing years, I always drew them as a lump of leaves with a trunk coming down from it. After a while I started drawing more distinct species, like pines, spruces and birches. Trees we have a lot of here in Norway. Some of them…

I Like How the Horses Turned Out
This is just a quick doodle I made the other day. There's not much to say about it. Other than that I like how the horses turned out. I drew them the same way I draw people. Quick, and in a very loose style. I've never used this style when drawing animals, though. But after…

The reason behind these huts, is the creation of DNT (The Norwegian Trekking Association). It was founded in 1868. It's mandate being to "acquire…

Room for More
People who live out on small islands has always fascinated me. And it's quite a few who does it, here in Norway. Some have ferry connections to the mainland. Others need private boats to get there. I like the thought of being cut off from the rest of the world like that. Not having…

Last Stop – Letting the Pen Out
I've been missing my sketching sessions a lot lately. I haven't found room for them after redirecting my attention towards the coastal nature. My sketches has always involved busy streets or more urban features. But, if I want to have room for my sketching again, I simply need to make one. So I thought about…

No Covid
It's strange how much our lives have changed because of covid. The way we've stopped traveling. How the government now decides how many people we get to see, and where we get to go. How using a face mask just about everywhere has become completely normal. One can only dream of a place where you…

Drawing People Again
I haven't been drawing people for a long time now. I haven't really noticed, until I started making a few doodles in my sketchbook the other day. I like to just let the pen work fast, and see what comes out of it. I'm always surprised by how some of them end up looking. But…
