„Sunny Day on Harris“ v2

Illustration of a traditional Scottish cottage on a flowering meadow (Machair), surrounded by the sea. It's a beautiful day, there's sheep and birds and mountains in the background.

Variant of the previous illustration but the door is now on the long side of the house, before it was somehow going through the chimney.

We’ve just returned from a week on #Harris with the most amazing weather!

So here’s „Sunny Day On Harris“ again (we were to early for the #Machair, though). I since realised that the original version of this doesn’t work (you can’t have a door in the chimney!) so here’s a variant.

Which one do you prefer?

… Interesting there’s some colour-profile (I guess) weirdness going on here, the new version is much more desaturated than the old one. Looks good on my PC and on Mastodon and Pixelfed, so 🤷‍♀️ Edit: Lol, it’s only in the WordPress editor? The final post is fine. Wtf.

Gingerbeard A5 print now available in my shop!

Abstract vector illustration showing a split view of a night scene on some islands: Above the water there is the moon, clouds and people camping on one of the islands with a campfire, a boat and and owl. Underwater, there's a diver and two whales.

Stopping on an #island for the #night with a nice campfire and some whales in the deep.

This one is ancient (2011) but I still like it a lot ^__^ Tiny A5 #print now available at my #shop:

Wolf Witch – Process Video

I love watching other artist’s #process videos and I finally managed to do something similar for „Wolf Witch“, that I posted last week!

It’s just a video (made in #Blender because I know how 😹) of the different versions I saved while working on it.

Do you enjoy watching videos like this? Anything you’d change?

Wild Fired Art Market ❄️

Illustration of a fox and hedgehog having a winter picnic on a snowy peak. Warrior squirrel needs some sleep but it looks like mountain ghost is going to join!

Poster from the Wild Fired Market with text and swirly lines and dots with circles around them on a blue and yellow gradient background. The text is the date, time location and I mention in the post.

My stall from Colony of Artist which will be similar for this market, lots of postcards and stickers as well as (not pictured here) prints and book), all very brightly coloured.

Fedicard

An illustration of a Magic – The Gathering style trading card showing an island at night saying „Temporary Respite > Birch Cove – Fantastic Landscape: It can be a cruel world out there, so stay a while, look at some pretty art, recharge and then go on changing it for the better.“ The card is surrounded by flowers and grass, a butterfly, a ladybug, a cup of coffee, drawing utensils as well as a small plate with nuts, chocolate and raspberries on it.

Hi! Remember #FediCard? I decided to make an illustration around one, way after it was cool and then kinda lost steam … But since it’s theme seems to only getting more relevant I decided to post it anyway in all it’s unfinished glory ^__^

I’ve long struggled with my art not being deep or political enough and while I do see a worth in giving people the chance of not thinking about terrible events for a second it still feels not enough …

Cosmic Cow

Vector drawing in dark greens and blues of a night-scene with a highland cow on a small peninsular. The cow's reflection in the water reflects the milky way in the sky above. There's a crow sittig on the cow's back but in the reflection it is somehow in flight.

„Cosmic Cow“, first #illustration of the new year 🎉

A magic #cow and it’s time-bending #crow-companion enjoying the night on Harris ^__^

I like #HighlandCows a lot, they’re so chill and cool. This was probably inspired by John Maher’s night photography of the #OuterHebrides:

ISLE OF HARRIS, OUTER HEBRIDES

Nach der Zeit – Cityscape

A nightly streetscene with old houses that are partly submerged in water. In the distance two reed moons and a cloud kinda form a monster's face

Hej ^__^

Here’s another #illustration from my #diploma (1),which I like a lot, I feel like this #cityscape harkens back to my prediploma (2) which was a reaction to my #erasmus #studenexchange in #Istanbul (which was very good but as a lover #nature it was a strange experience).
