I’m in the ink-ditches working away, bullets of real life zinging past my head. When I’m ready (give me a week or two) I’m back with the new batch of work and some exciting news, until then stay warm and soft inside. Right, I’m getting another coffee and then work! /Anneli

New work
“We play with the cards we were dealt with” Mixed media on canvas. The canvas isn’t stretched, I just took it down from my wall. I climbed a ladder snapping this photo for you guys because its so big, cirka 150cm x 165cm. The Autumnal daylight is getting weaker by the day, please excuse meContinue reading “New work”
A goodiebag that did good
I’m so thankful right now. Colart sent me a fantastic Winsor and Newton goodiebag full of watercolor markers, papers and even watercolor crayons and the small watercolor tubes (which I already own but I don’t mind some extra, they’re great). I’ve fallen in love with Arches paper but trying the sample of the hot pressedContinue reading “A goodiebag that did good”

The things I do right now

And yes I’m getting there, writing wise, but also I finally decided on how to incorporate the illustrations and which technique I shouldContinue reading “The things I do right now”
Dance
I’ve decided to put some of my ink work on the designs I create for Rage On. Please enjoy dancing down the rabbit hole in this dress ❤

Recent Inklings
It’s time to finish up my manuscripts but I try to do art in between whatever breaks I squeeze in. This week I’ll be packing a sold painting and shipping it to Norway, and also it’s time to do my Taxes, oh joy…. Wishing you all a good week!
New illustrations
Lately I’ve been having a lot of fun with my old sketchbook illustrations, rendering them (so I call them new but if you follow my work you will recognize some of them) and right now I’m using the new designs in my Rage On Shop which is updated about weekly. Work is going smoother, juggling motherhoodContinue reading “New illustrations”
Gouache 2017
I found old acrylic on canvas pieces that I made a long time ago and decided to paint something new on top of it. I blocked out the old piece using acrylics and then I used gouache for the new artwork. Have a lovely friday, weekend is coming up! Yay!
