Girl Meditating



Here you see a painted meditating girl which I made to try out a new brand of oil color. I kept the color usage simple to create a mystique effect.

A Book Full Of Secrets


 

From childhood I've always been fascinated with clever hiding places for precious and valuable belongings. One of these fascinations was with "hollow books" because they are very hard to recognize as they are standing in a bookcase. Now I don't think mine will be very hard to notice since I've given the books a new fantasy-style cover. But these books are just for fun of course.
I removed the innermost of the pages with a box cutter. The pages are held together with a layer of glue that I applied on the inner square using a brush.


A book full of secrets, do you need one in your bookcase?

Abstract Sculpting


 

On a rainy afternoon a friend and I explored the art of sculpting. On the photo you see two gypsum blocks that I molded a few days before. They measure about 18 x 6 x 10 cm.


My result of this first trial is an abstract looking figure made out of organic forms.
