inspiration: Camilla Engman (2)

Today my 2011 calender arrived!

I know, I'm a bit late, but there are still three month to go and the beautiful
pictures from one of my favorite artists Camilla Engman will remain in 2012 too.
It looks beautiful, as always.

Earlier I've bought the suitcase series. I wrote about that here

Her friendly dog Morran is in the calender too :-)
Camilla just started studio Morran: a blog dedicated to and about Morran.
The idea is to make an illustration book about him from all different artists
and illustrators. That will be fun!

red shoes

hurray, I found my red shoes!!

A several years ago I bought very nice red shoes
and I was in love with them.
I walked on them till they broke in two, totally worn out.
I wanted new ones, but couldn't find them, till today :-)

I've also made an illustration earlier this year in January
about my longing for red shoes:
today red is the color of my shoes

playing bingo

Last days I was inspired by the bingo game in my face-a-day-project
I've made a serie of four 'bingo-faces'.

yellow legs

yesterday I saw a girl walking on the street with a bright yellow legging,
the weather was grey for the rest, but her legs brightened the street :-)
It inspired me to this drawing.

IF: boundaries

illustration friday: boundaries

I come from a big family and in my youth I always tried to save the most
delicious part from my food for the last. But when the others were already finished,
I really had to defend my last part. I had to put up my boundaries...

rain, rain, rain....

It's raining, almost all summer. Now it's almost autumn and it still rains.
It inspired me to this rainy illustration.
