a detail of a charcoal drawing I once made for an art portfolio.
Month: March 2022 (Page 2 of 3)
This is one of the first linoleum prints I made and it is also one of the few prints I am convinced of myself. One where I really think “yes – it fits, it transports something”.
Minimalist graphic design of a strongly hilly landscape in Austria.

I’m trying to learn shuttle lace again. I got the tip in the Youtube Academy to try needle lace first. I did that. They said it was easier to switch to shuttle lace afterwards. Hm.
With the shuttle I always have the problem that it looks completely different in the video. By that I mean my knot is “the wrong way round”. I don’t know why. I pass the shuttle under and over the threads as shown. A second problem is the “second rings”. One works, the second does not.
Here in the second picture you can see that I am somehow familiar with the principle, at least with a needle.
I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong. Shuttle lace is a real asshole today.
It turned out that there should be a kind of fold or two in the middle of the pencil case to avoid the bulge that forms when the pencil case is filled. But filling it already works. I definitely need to improve this. The next question is how to close it. I don’t want to use a zip and the first thought was that press snaps at the corners might be an idea.
just now I had the idea to make a pencil case for my micron markers. Off the top of my head. Just like that. I’m sure it will be great 😉 More info tomorrow.
The parts for the turtle shell multiply. Let’s see what comes out in the end. I’m a little worried about the dents, but good turtle shells take time.
who knows the name?
I’m a little embarrassed by these shades, but I’ll grace you with this “fanart sketch” anyway.
This is supposed to be Bae Doona in Sense8 just doing things on a roof… never mind 🙂
in my defence I would like to say that this is a 10 minute sketch, as I want to post something every day, I am probably a bit stressed some days and then it has to go fast.
