From A to Z

Starting a new project with all the letters of the alphabet...from A to Z, for kids under 6 years. This is a first trial...and error :) before starting for real making a huge book.
Hope I can count on your comments and thoughts while travelling through this new adventure!
Hear you!

At his best

Some shots from my week! A garden at his best, apple-evelopes at his best for the kids from the academy to wish them a really deserved vacation, a performer (Juan Luis Guerra) at his best on a Belgium stage after ages (also Calle 13 was heavy to see them performing Live! so happy we were part of the public!) and a little Moleskine that will be part of The Sketchbook Project 2010 World Tour...I have to fill it up with drawings so that it can become part of the Brooklyn Art Library where it will be exhibited to the public...at his best!
New week, new adventures and so many things to happen! ENJOY!

Weekend-exhibition | Drongen


Last weekend my work was exposed in a very nice old building that once was the 'colorfactory' of the village named Drongen, near Gent. I was invited by Stefanie De Graef , a briljant illustrator and the grandchild of the man who started this factory long time ago. Fascinating place to show my work, upon the old bricks! Together with 4 other artists/photographers/painters, we had a lovely weekend and received lots of enthousiastic comments on our work! This was the second time I placed my work in front of a public and it tastes so good! Valentina ofcourse was there too and soon I want to start with a man or cat to join her :)
Looking forward to more exhibition with more (new) work !

Een aantal van hen leeft al verspreid over de wereld en hier in België nog lang en gelukkig in hun nieuwe thuis.
Ik print hen op MONTVAL Aquarelle- papier mét korrel (310g/m²), nummer hen in een oplage van 50 en signeer ze. Alle prints worden zorgvuldig verpakt in een cellophaan-zakje en een verstevigde enveloppe.

Sorrel-daydream

As I wanted since weeks or may'be months. Starting to work on wood and not to grow into my watercolour-paper. I gave it a try...with Gesso, and acrylics and even my watercolors and pencils...wooow! This evening was perfect. Kate Bush in the background, heavy wind outside, Dalí afraid of that wind and napping and a warm milk with honey to drink.
In two weeks my parents-in-law will travel to Europe and are coming over to visit us, may'be that's the inspiration for the theme of this drawing. The leave-trees are inspired on the 'sorrel' (zurkel in flemish) growing in my garden. Incredible textures and colour they have!
A very nice weekend to all of you and stay dreaming...because really every dream comes true one day, just wait that one day!For them who love to see behind the drawing/painting, these pics ;)

Afternoon

Inspired on my little chinese porcelain cup I love to use for a coffee to get out the afternoon-blues. Me (drawing), my coffee (and one, two, three, to much biscuits!) and resting Dalí (somewhere in the house)...a perfect thursday-afternoon.

Painting...the toilet

Thought it was time to give the place we visit everyday a new look.
The green stayed the same, but the brown-green with branches and flowers made the new view! Now we will spend even more time here then in the other rooms of the house :)? Working on it between the busy days on my academies.

Some minutes

Every evening the sun enters the living room...straight upon our blue wall she lays herself down on the Peruvian embroidered carpet and brings me some incredible intimate light-show :)
Love those minutes!

In a magazine : Libelle Lekker!

Een nieuwe maand met een nieuw avontuur!
Mijn eerste publicatie in een Vlaams tijdschrift : Libelle Lekker!
Een uitscheurbare pagina speciaal voor de 'kleine chefs', maar ook de iets grotere natuurlijk! Heerlijk om te doen en hopelijk zet het de lezer(tjes) aan om zelf deze heerlijke 'plat' te bereiden!
Mijn inspiratie is duidelijk op de eerste foto, het resultaat werd dan ook onder de loep genomen en goedgekeurd :)
***************
A new month with a new adventure!
My first publication in a Flemish magazine about food and cooking fun.
A double page with the preparation of a recipe especially for the 'little chefs' and the bigger ones too ofcourse!
I enjoyed drawing this en hope the readers will try to cook this delicious plate!
My inspiration is obvious on the first pic, the result passed his critical eye and it's approved! :)
