74.

Unfortunately this time in year light is just too dark to get good pictures.

63.

I try to eat alkaline to improve my strength again. But I feel too weak to follow a strict diet.

Some drawing to relax.

Just a few weeks till our trip to the U.S.!

55.

Two sketches I've drawn lately. I am not sure in which way to color them.

53 or Inspiration: Isabelle Arsenault.

 Look at her Portfolio and Blog! Wonderful work she does! Makes me wanna cook, eat, travel, draw - all at
once! I miss drawing.

7 things.

Working on a mobile for my suite.

Lots of fruit this week.

Starting gardening season.

Enjoyed the sun.

Somedays one should not go out of bed.

I am bored of getting into trouble caused by my childish behavior.

The doggy got to visit the vet for an operation, but everything went well!

(I dried a lot of butternut squash seeds, if someone like to get some, send me an email!)

16.

Some aquarell painting. I got a cold over night so I am going to have a fresh juice after writing this.
For those who are interested in the books of the last post, I linked them here and here! Enjoy!

10.

Just finished some drawings. Think I'll follow this series.

7 things.

Thanks for all your lovely comments on my last post! ♥

 Listened to this. Wonderful.

 Spend a nice day with a lot of friends & family.

 Lovely blog.

 Finally finished some more snailmail packages.

 Developing the vintage film totally failed, it was too old.

 This morning was so perfect. Cold, crispy grass & sunshine in my face.

7 things.

Autumn is mushroom time. I ate a lot this week.

Decided to reject television.

So I found some time to be creative again.

And to bake a cake. Unfortunately it was eaten immediately, so there are no pics.

New lovely books about grafic design & zineculture. Looking forward to sneek through..

Visited a vernissage. And they snapshot me. But not too bad to be on slanted.de!

The weekend was really stressful. So it should not. We need to get a plan to calm down.

Foggy, wet & grey outside. I cleaned my flat this morning, moved some furniture and had a real breakfast
with yoghurt, mango & fruit juice. I am looking forward to the Weekend, especially Sunday.
I sneeked through some recipes and hope I'll find the time to cook or bake something nice with my boy.
I love to cook with him.

Actually I wanted to show you some pics of a swan family & their cute babies I saw on my bike trip yesterday!
But unfortunately I couldn't find them anymore, maybe they were hiding. Mh. This and Claudia's latest posts
inspired me for another sketch fitting to the series I have planned.

And I made a decision: Even if there is a lotlotlot of work I have to allow myself some time off for a walk, bike
trip or drawing. I calms me down & clears my mind.

Thank you all for your lovely comments on my last post! They mean so much to me! You're all right, there is some-
thing new & exciting waiting for me! We do not even know if we have to leave or not, because nobody told us yet
what their plans are. And because we live there for over 5 years now, we have a cancellation period of six months
(instead of 3). So I will be able to enjoy the summer in our garden & harvest all my veggies!

SOVA.

Yesterday finally arrived the SOVA magazine, I ordered a week ago! It is an independent
magazine published by Martin Petersen. Issue N°1 deals with "sleep" and the edition is limited
on 250 handnumbered copies! So if you like to get one, hurry up!

Roses.

Sun is shining outside, I am at work. Did a little drawing over the last week.
I draw a lot last time, almost as much as at the beginning of my studies.
Makes me calm and happy.

Raining.

It is raining today. And it seems that it won't stop. I hate greygrey days, when you are forced
to light all rooms even on daytime. I should work for my degree. I should go in for sports again.
But my motivation is low. Probably "Frühjahrsmüdigkeit"?

I wonder if this illustration above needs some colours. I am not sure. Sometimes it is too much
and one regrets and can't recreate the original state. Ha, difficult! What do you think?

Veggies!

This is what I plan to harvest in a few ( hopefully sunny and warm) month!
Oh – I think, I forgot the peppers...

J'aime des ovins.

I just love sheep! Maybe I can have a little flock one day!

This week:
Grief was heavy.
I made beet root tortellini with spinach and gorgonzola stuffing.
Did a little drawing.
Wrote my exposé, sent it and got a positive response!
Got a huge coppa banana cup - yummy!
Visited an old lady in hospital.
Ate pizza instead of veggies and fruit. I will do better.
And I watched my little inside vegetable garden growing!
I have six baby plants of melons, four cucumbers, six fennels and (just, but nevertheless)
one nasturtium!
