This is one of those doodle-a-day -blogs, although I really can't make such promises, so it'll just be something whenever.

Illustration Friday - Signs
I promised I'd do something solely inspired by the IF topic, so here it is. Although now that I look at it, I think it's mostly symbols, not signs. Always the rebel.
Uuh boy! You´ve been busy since the last time I visited your blog. All three new pieces are excellent. I like the way you work with contrast and shades, and the quality of your drawings show in both the sketches and the finished works. You also do have a certain nordic flavour in your works (but don´t ask me why this is, it´s just...there!).
The "Girls in a tree" piece is really well done, the gradient background gives it a nice, glowing touch. If you maintain this kind of energy I think you will be going somewhere great (and I don´t say this lightly). I mean, your work is pretty consistent, and in your case that´s a plus.
I am looking forward to your future works! Keep it up, Frederik
(PS. Have you already seen Illustration Friday Night? I have it linked on the very top on my linklist (above my profile), it´s a very interesting blog-community and I think it would suit you, too!)
And PPS, I am logged in under my IFN account, that´s why my profile picture is missing. I wasn´t smart enough to register there with the SAME account, so I don´t have both blogs under one user name o_O
well for the summer, i may be taking an art class or two, but im mainly working part time to save up some money, then once september hits, im back at school (but at a community college).. im trying to transfer over to new york within a year or so... ill be taking art credits and such (since at cal arts, they only gave me animation credit).... im going to try to get to some workshops every week or so..
thank you for asking :) i enjoy coming back and looking at your work, its quite inspiring.

Yes I see what you mean about signs v symbols, but I like it very much anyway!

I love the fluid exaggeration of the body!
Thank you for the comments! Frederik, you have a tendency of restoring my faith. Thank you for that.
Your work is amazing, I especially love the line qualities throughout!
beautiful linework, like always!!
