DESIGN CONTEST HEMA

Hello world!

I earned an honorable mention with a nation design contest, called the "HEMA ontwerpwedstrijd" I'm really pleased by receiving this prize. It's really awesome actually. I can put this on my C.V. so i'm quite happy. :)
This is my product !
Its a tiny spider! You can put the little spider on a plastic bottle with water.... Put it in the soil of your plants... and voila! you don't have to give your plants water anymore! until the water runs out of course :)
more explanations and visuals on my portfolio website! > WATERSPIN HEMA ONTWERPWEDSTRIJD <

I'm finishing my Bachelor at the TU Delft at the moment, so I am way too busy :)

Way to busy with learning new techniques and adjusting sketches with Photoshop CS6

Grumpy cat

I love to sketch this weirdo cat

no updates

Sorry for my lack of updating.
I am back at the University and have lots of stuff to create. I'm following new sketching classes, which I really like to do. Next to that I'm attending the next Hema Ontwerpwedstrijd 2013. Last but not least, I have also a job!!
My other blogs are updated a bit ( still not finished yet.. will it ever be? )..

Here is one of my last pieces! Made it for my sis, she turned 20 last Sunday.

Sketchy moods

This is a card I gave to my little sister :)

Also tried to make some human characters, experimenting with hair details etc. I really like it and hope I find some more time to work on this project in the near future.

Update!

Hello there! 

I did not paint for a while, but still have some awesome news! I have a new exposition with +- 15 paintings at the docters practice! Next week I have to grab all of my paintings together, quite a work but not for today.. Feeling not so well the last couple of days, so stayed in bed...where I found the time to update all online things :)

I also gave myself some new little projects to work on to keep up the sketching besides my work! I really love my place at UNGA and I really need a job like that in the future! I now sketch new things and using new methods to improve myself. The last few weeks I spent some time making my own christmas cards :D, a birthday card for a lovely friend and a 'getwellsoon' one for my little sis, but this last one is still a secret!

Birds

Some bird sketches, Also made in the train.

The last few months I sketch with a blue or black pen rather than pencils :)

Frogsomes

Don't know where I got the name from, but I think it matches the sketches :)

Dog sketches

Some random sketches I made in train.

The last one is Cheffie, our dog!

Carp 2012

Finished my latest carp painting on canvas! It has been a year I made one on canvas. Mostly I sketch them, but I do like them all colored up!
Also transformed a scooter into a carp-ish thing, pictures will follow soon :)

I took the pic with my mobile so it's not that sharp as it should be!
In reality the painting is a bit brighter / lighter.

More sketches - Flowers

More sketches - girls

Sketched a lot lately

Here some random older ones from May and June 2012.

Carp and flowers in the mix!

You may have seen some sketches in older posts, I did start with color on the carp painting!
I think the mix of flowers and a fish is a bit new for me, but I'll hope it will turn out great :) Thinking of making the flowers more 'fake' with black lines to suggest them or so, but next thing to do is the carp itself!

At the moment I'm way to busy with projects for school, so I think the next time I can paint is in 4 weeks! Can't wait until then :). Karim also asked me to paint some scooter-parts for him! Bit curious about that :D
