//Beyond the
Moleskine.

Hey! How’s everybody doing? How was your Christmas? Please share your stories, I would love to hear them. My Christmas was fine, had too much to eat I think though, I still feel stuffed.I know, I know! I haven’t updated in a while again. I’ve been busy. Sorry! I didn’t forget about my blog though. 

Lately I have been stressing out for my acceptance at the HKU ( it’s an art academy ). I’m applying for my Illustration Bachelor, and my acceptance day is going to be the 16th of January. So I am working hard on my portfolio to expand it with different materials, views, types of illustration. I’ve been drawing in my Moleskine a lot, and I have also picked up a different notebook, which is more freestyle related. I use this notebook to experiment with materials, put news paper clippings in, write down my brainstorms and ideas for project or random statements. I call this notebook My Little Blue Crackbook. Don’t ask me why, I have twisted humor at times. ( This reminds me - my friend Yorick de Vries made a book a long time ago, called ‘The Cokebook’. Hah ).

Anyway. I scanned the pages I have so far - and of course, I’m going to show them to you - so you can feedback on my work ( please, PLEASE do, I can use it! ), and perhaps inspire you to make a book of your own.I will write more soon, but for now I leave you with this Have a great one guys!

Mad love.

Etch-a-sketch
anyone?

I’ve been drawing a lot again lately. As I am going through a personal process in life, I guess you could say my drawing style has also altered. I don’t know. You judge. Here are three of my most recent works.

And if you’re interested - you can watch my whole sketching / drawing process here. It dates from May till November this year.

Enjoy!

I love to be a
voyeur.

I’m not feeling so well today, I think either not enough healthy foods - sleep or basically I have not been doing a lot of healthy things lately. So today I have been under the weather - mostly sleeping and having a higher temperature than normal.

As I couldn’t sleep anymore - I decided to surf the web again and I stumbled upon this crazy ass website.

Elevator Moods.

Apparently this website has been floating around for some time - but this is my first time encountering it. I did some research on the website and this is the best way to describe the website:

“”Elevator Moods is made up of 13 short humorous mini-films (or “moods”), each shown as though it was captured by an elevator security camera.”

I wish these movies were real though.
I love studying human behavior.

Goodnight.

This shit is
ill.

Goodmorning world.
As I am munching on some breakfast before work - I am - once again - visiting the Byroglyphics website. I cannot take my eyes away from these pieces.

This shit is straight up ill, so to speak. This guy is definitely in my top 3 artists, and if he keeps going this way he might actually become first place. The use of colors - composition - the way he creates structure into chaos. I LOVE HIS WORK.

Go visit his website - oh and I found it really interesting to read the FAQ section.

I want to
know.

A while ago someone sent me the following shot:

I love this so much. Apparently this was actually an installation.
Until this day I have NO idea who’s installation this is.

Goodnight.
