Botanical marine life series
As a child I wanted to be a marine biologist. While growing up, my dreams and ambitions changed but my passion for the sea remained and that has been reflected in most of my artwork. I don't think I´m going to follow this path for much longer, but for now I want to explore it, in the best way I can. Using Ernst Haeckel old botanical drawings of seaweed, shells, coral, etc. as inspiration I´ve been creating a series of water colour drawings. I think they work really well as final product.
Multitasking....thinking of:
Porcelain inlays
repetition
Video Editing
small plates
large plates
wall plates
spoons
I have to be very honest. I really hate this pieces, I don't know why but I cant identify myself with them. I´m going to use them as colour samples and back to the drawing board. I need to rethink this project.

Illustration exercise - Drawing,collage and digital media.
I've been gathering photographs from my godsons in natural poses or doing what they love to do best, goofing around!!! start by sketching some of their poses for reference, A great way to spend the afternoon – Pencil in hand and a steady flow of excellent poses with attitude.and then watercolour to give it life like they meant to be in a story book on the bottom of the sea. I also add my ceramic pieces as decorative elements since they are related.
I also use different papers to add texture and patterns to my drawings. Last year I bought a beautiful "VÄXTGLÄDJE" (I cant even pronounce it) wrapping paper at Ikea and I've been using it alot recently . After scanning all my drawings , I use the Illustrator program to manipulate colour and shape.
1,10,1000 Project
Finish and ready for assessment. "What you see during day day may change at night" Inspired by bio-luminescent sea life,the focus on this project is the sensory perception. Research on visual and tactile-somatic perception through clay and luminescent resin. Textures, Textures, textures!!! I invite you to turn out the light and touch it.
Under the sea pots
My small batch of ceramic pieces finally finish. Hand built pieces that have each taken many hours to create. Loads of hard work but I'm happy .
Project 2 - 1,10,1000
working on my second project 1,10,1000. Trying to create a small batch- wall panels installation stoneware (B17 an B700) and cobalt blue,turquoise and green lime stained clay. each detail had been carved individually and attached on the piece.
Live drawing - line expression
Line drawings of a female model. 10m sketch each. These are the first drawings that I've ever done of a female mode and I normally don't tend to draw live people, You can clearly see my lack of confidence!!! Normally all my human forms drawings come from imagination.
