I’m sharing two of my latest sketchbook pages today. I am filling these Royal Talens books in such a rush that I often don’t find the time to take good photos, to share them on social media or even to write a blog post. I’m trying to get better at that and share my drawingsContinue reading “It’s been a while that I shared pages from my Sketchbook”

Cute Owl Drawing with Paul Rubens Oil-Pastels
In today’s video I have a closer look at the brand new Paul Rubens Oil Pastels HaiYa. I have you to tell in advance, that I am not an oil pastel artist! I love mixed media and I use oil pastels in my sketchbook to add some accents or for mark making in my art journal. In this video I’m going to make an owl sketch with the pastels. They are super creamy, go down very smoothly and blend really nicely.
Mixed Media im Skizzenbuch – Tanz der Vampire #FanArt
Heute mal was ganz anderen aus meinem Sketchbook… ein BISSchen Fanart anlässlich meines letzten Musical-Besuchs bei Tanz der Vampire. Um Erlebnisse ein etwas besser abzuspeichern und mich genauer erinnern zu können mache ich gern die ein oder andere Skizze, am besten natürlich gleich am Ort des Geschehens, was aber in diesem Fall nicht möglich war und auch nicht besonders sinnvoll. Schließlich will man sich auf den kurzweiligen wunderschönen Moment konzentrieren. Gezeichnet habe ich mit verschiedenen Materialien. Die Verlinke ich alle im Post.
Mixed Media in my Skechbook – Landscape in Watercolor – Full Video Tutorial
I’m sharing a process video today over on my german YouTube channel (no voice over) on how I draw/paint a landscape in mixed media in my sketchbook. I am working in a Royal Talens Art Creations book. It’s my favourite as the price is not expensive, the paper is smooth and takes a lot of mediums (including watercolors) very well. I also like that the paper is in a cream color.
Using Oil-Pastels in my Sketchbook
Over the last few days I made some bird drawings with oil pastells in my Sketchbook. I have been loving oil pastells forever, but I always hesitated using them to create art because of their property not to dry. After drawing in mixed media every day for one year I discovered that the process is the thing I really love about making art. It became absolutely unimportant for me to create good work. Knowning and feeling that freed me up in a completely new way. That was, what made it so easy to play with the pastels even if they are messy, they do not dry and the pages stick together. You will find some tips in my post how I prevent them from smearing and of course the drawings I made. I will also give you the links to the pastels I’ve used.
