Back at Uni

One more and I am done updating for now...

Uni started again yesterday with a different Illustration Tutor and a fun day of drawing. This is on a rather big scale which I'm not used to since my drawings are usually really small (I painted with my fingers because there weren't enough brushes -it's more fun anyway). The first project we got is called 'Personal Myth' and we were told the drawing could be about something that we're obsessed with. Now I am obsessed with pugs (I wanted one since I was 14 years old and as soon as I can afford it I will have one!) so that was the obvious choice. For some reason I added antlers and then the cross. It kind of popped into my mind and I knew there was a myth about that but I couldn't remember it. I checked it when I got home, it's the myth of St. Hubert.

London




I have been back for while now and actually started doing some work but it is still in this unfinished state because the big 'let's redecorate the house' project interfered. My housemate and I are still painting the hallway, we ran out of wallpaper and had to order more -which is still in the post and about 15 km's of door and skirting surface are still waiting to be varnished -there is no end in sight...

Berlin



So I have been away all summer -with no real access to the internet and I haven't exactly done any work either. I spent a whole month in Berlin, trying to find a job -big failure. But at least I had the chance to explore the city...

And then I went back home and wasted another month -not doing anything but swimming, seeing friends, welcoming my little brother back from Australia and taking lots of pictures. I will post a few of those another time.
