It was due for a christmas card, so I tried painting some snowy pines at dusk. The grains on the paper got a bit dominating on the photo, but I'm very pleased with the result: I think it ended up pretty cool with the contours of trees in the back, which I added when the…
After having a go at watercolours again, this is my second painting in my new series: This one is also painted on Winsor & Newton watercolour paper, in postcard format. It's so nice to paint on these small papers at the moment, as it gives me so much room for play and impulsiveness. The postcard…

After painting a lot of landscape scenes, it was time for a visit back to the city. Maybe not the city, come to think of it, but at least the suburbs. The painting is made using felt pens and van Gogh watercolours, and I like the end result. It just looks a bit sassy :)…

Follow the line. From the bottom and up. Will the hiker reach the top?
