Sketches from Italy/Croatia

Not new but i never show them before. I did them rather quickly and added the color later.
(Google Earth fans: the upper one is Malcesine, Lago di garda, the other one is the cathedral of Pag, island of Pag)

Criminal offence?

Seems that these two guys are about to do something criminal.

Japanese

I used a sketch i've done one year before but made it completely new. The headline is only a japanese type - i don't have any idea what i wrote there. I hope it's nothing indecent.

Stones the 3rd

Don't ask me why, but it seems that i like stones. It's oil on canvas, 120 x 40 cm (about 47 x 16 inches)

Remake

This was an elder sketch (from 06). I didn't like it so it disappeared in the depths of my harddrive. Today i colored it (in fact i tried a color theme) - now it looks better.

Ahoi
I didn't post too much the last months (sorry so far) but i have so much to do (my relaunched website for ex. and a few other projects). For this reason i show few older things. These ships are doodles from a trip to the sea i made last year. I always wanna show them so now is the time therefor.

Stones agin (70 x 60 cm)
Next try with oil, it works better and better. The following pictures i'll try something different than stones, but it's a very gratefull structure for painting. (stones never move)
I'm working hard on my new website, so i can't spend much time with my blog in the moment ...

Oil
I try painting with oil again. It's so totally different to acrylics! Hard for people who can't wait like me. And it stinks. Piuuuu. But it's fun. This is an abstraction of stones in Croatia i photographed last summer.

Roadblock
This picture is part of the serial of Roadcomics. I made it especially for my exhibition. It's printed on canvas in 150 x 60 cm (approx. 60 x 24 inches) and put on a stretcher with a depth of approx. 4 cm (1.5 inches). Looks great. I'll post some fotos the next days.


Thanx
to all the people who party with me on my vernissage, it was a wonderfull and exciting evening.

ENDLICH
Meine Vernissage
Am 24. November ab 20:00 Uhr
Die menagerie in Hannover zeigt Zeichnungen und Grafiken von mir. Ihr seid alle herzlich eingeladen.

FINALLY
My vernissage
November 24th, 8:00 pm
The Menagerie in Hanover shows drawings and graphics of mine. You're all welcome.

Asian warrior
It fits in my fictitious serial of the astonished people, in fact i drew it 'cause my wife didn't want to see Full metal Jacked with me.

Bulb Fiction
This artwork is a remake of a post a few month before. It looks similar but i made it completely new for my exibition - 24.11.07, 20:00 Uhr in the Menagerie in Hanover. I wanted to make it corresponding with this one, so i drew it new and colored it.

Doodling around
Currently i'm in a doleful mood, like you can see in this picture. So i don't start new projects but doodled 'round and made a smokin' whaler.
Remember: Never stop drawin'!

Some Facedoodles
Think he's an arabic vizier who would like to be caliph instead of the caliph.

Poor homeless goblin
I made this Artwork for ArtJumble. Theme of the week: witches, ghosts and goblins

On a Party
Acryl on Canvas
80 cm x 100 cm
Inspired by Ricardos excellent analog work I took out brush and easel and painted two friends of mine.

Pedal to the metal

In fact i want continue the series in B/W, but i saw this delicious blue/red- effect in an add and must try it. Drawing in B/W is different when you know that you will colourize later.

Desert Cops
Actually i wanted to go on with the story from below, and i really did. But i'm not contended with the result up to now, so i decided to take up time.
This pic is two or three weeks old and was a part of a scribble for one of the panels below. I liked it and so i draw it up a bit.

Cop story pt. 2
I told in my last post to make a story, so here is the next part! I'm a hopeless lousy writer so i decide to draw bit by bit. And you see here something totally new: text. I know it's german, so many won't understand, but it's my first time (colloquial english will be my next step)

Cop story pt. 1
Back to the roots: 99% analog, only felt tip pen and paper. In fact i tried a colored version (with PC), but black and white fits better 'cause of the hard shadows. Perhaps i try a serial in this style (My wife tries persuading me)

Dance-Theater
Please let me introduce Isabella, a blind, 68 years old coosie, here smootching her 17 years old Lover in a very wet way, surrounded of several drunken, bawling and dancing guys. Seen yesterday in the Schauspielhaus Hannover. Very ... mmh ... impressive. And loud. It was culture. I hope.

Fearful intermezzo
An Artist always show his innermost in his pictures - so i must be afraid of something. Looking to my picture it only could be something klingon!

Holidays #2 Stones on Pag
There are so much stones in Croatia, sometimes it hurts.

Holidays #1 Back from Croatia/Italy
with some sketches (made with my Edding 1800) of these very old and romantic villages. If someone would ban all this touristic primates it could be very nice there.

Back in end of august

911
Last weekend i drove one (unfortunatly not mine) - exciting! ... and they made a very expensive foto of me. Hope i will keep my license ...

Amendment just for Thies: i keep it, but they just sent me a detail. Think it will be delicate to ask for the whole one)

My new pen

I bought a new pen, a brushpen and it's from japan. It only makes japanese strokes so i draw a japanese picture, at least i tried.

Amaze
verb surprise greatly; astonish. Derivatives: amazement (noun.)

Back to brush and easel

Last weekend i was teed of my PC and needed to create analog. So i took brushes, canvas, acrylic colors and painted a city. (120 x 40 cm) My wife says, I worked trough my fear of heights and may be she's right.

Something critical

I made it a few days ago, after the disappointing G8-Summit. It's the guy from two posts before, i found he was worth to resume.

Tankgirl
This is a really difficult post because of his format. I want to be prepared to make a really huge print out of it (someday) so the resolution in original is very high (about 7000 x 2500px and my RAM was annealing)

Facedoodles

A few faces, drawn while relaxing in the evening sun at the canal, shaded later with PS

Pirate 2

Obviously inpired by Satzingers last post: Three states of my latest drawing.

Pirate

I love Piratemovies, exp. the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogie. The third part is out now . Probably the reason for this post.

Kids club

Still interested in having childs?

Petanque masters
This sport is really encredible, belive me!

Back again ...
after nearly one month with three weeks of sunshine (really hot, it was impos-
sible to work), a new time-
bandit (see left), one and a half week with a blown PC, one shorttrip to Berlin and one to Bremen i found the way back to my computer. Presenting a fantastic sport: Petanque. Smoking, drinking and sport, all at the same time ... amazing. By the way, the left one on the upper picture is a Ketscha. Ketsch-En is a special illuminated asiatic throwing-technic that only a real Ketscha may control.
