Cupcake


This was an exercise from the book "Die Kunst des Zeichnens Farbe". I used Polychromos from Faber Castell. The goal of this exercise was to train to draw shadows. I think the transitions in the frosting aren't smooth enough and may I should use stronger colors for the decoration to get a bigger contrast to the blue background.

Two girls on a poppyfield

This painting shows two girls (technically me and my little sister) in a poppyfield. When I was about 8 years old we moved to another house. Before my parents created a garden, a lot of wild poppies grew behind the house. It was the perfect playground for my siblings and me. A few days ago, I found this picture in my photo collection and thought it would be a great motive to paint. So I took my watercolors and this was the result.

Wallpainting

This is my first wallpainting. It was much fun to do this artwork. I've drawn it in the old house of my grandmother, she died 2016 and since then the house was empty. This selfportrait is 2.30m hight and 1.72m wide. It took 2 days to paint it.

Nude drawing

Every artist should be able to draw nude drawings. However it's really hard to get the proportions right, the human body is such a complex thing... you could spend much time studying the anatomy just to learn to draw. I have no idea about anatomy, so I took pictures from a drawingbook as reference. I decided to draw female nudes here but I have also drawn some nudes of men, I will show them in an other post :)
