That looks really neat. Love it

I thought it was the other way around with the dragons and shoes 😉. Thanks, I’m glad you like it.

Thank you! It comes out better than I expected 😄. For the lines, I applied acrylic paint from top to bottom using a notched palette knife. For the group of two figures on the right edge, I used a regular palette knife. For the splashes of color, I partially covered the painting and carefully sprayed it with paint. This made the painting wavy. It probably depends on the paper, but you can easily smooth it out again after drying by lightly dampening the back of the painting with water from a spray bottle and then weighting it down between sheets of newspaper and some books to dry again. Afterward, I traced the shapes with oil pastels. Finally, I applied a coat of varnish to seal it.

That’s a great idea. Maybe I should try that with a tile sometime, thanks 😃🤝

Thank you, I appreciate that. This picture didn’t take long. I’d estimate a maximum of 10 to 15 minutes. I’m curious. What, in your opinion, distinguishes it from yesterday’s doodle with the ship? It’s the same technique.

I can’t say for sure. But I’ve always doodled, more or less casually. At some point, I started drawing cities from basic shapes, and the rest came gradually. That was about a year ago, I think. Actually, I don’t think much about the finished result.

Thank you, but unfortunately that place does not exist.

I like how the title “Do you play with matches” also contains a wordplay. The first obvious thing that comes to mind is, of course, Tinder and matches. But also “burnout” in reference to the burnt matches. Was that your intention with this piece? It doesn’t have to be, of course 😉. That’s what art is for, and luckily, art is free. But as you can see, you’ve already made me think. So your work has already had an effect. A great piece.

Thank you! I appreciate it 🙂. For my first attempt with ink wash, it turned out better than I expected. I simply hadn’t had the “courage” before to generously apply the ink and just give it a try. But these are precisely the moments that remind me of the carefree nature of childlike creativity. Just do it and trust the process! 😄

This is creative! 🙂. I love it.

Haha, could be 😆.

Thank you! I appreciate it. 🙂

That is interesting. Yes, it actually has a strong resemblance to the footrest of a motorcycle

Ahh, I got it. It’s a gentleman who bought a wardrobe from IKEA and thought he could put it together all by himself without any help. And now he’s disappointed because he just realized he’d been holding the instructions the wrong way round. So he decides to go for a walk first, puts on his hat, and puts on his best suit, because it’s Sunday, and on Sundays you wear your Sunday best. I didn’t see that right away. Only now the wardrobe is self-aware and doesn’t want to be alone. So he tries to persuade the gentleman to stay. 😅

Ohh, I thought the coffin ear is a sort of greenhouse 😂

Or a part of a hip prosthesis? 🤷‍♂️😉.

Yes, it is definetly inspired by Getafix and his magic potion. 🙂

No, you’re all completely misunderstanding the picture. Those were just laser pointers back in the day, as you can see /s 🙃

“…baddabautz…” 😉.

Dad joke quality approved. 😂

Here you are
