Summer Solstice + drawing dogs (video)

With the Midsommar celebrations, summer has finally arrived in Sweden- and we're loving it! I've been drawing a lot lately: for the 100-day drawing challenge, illustrations, and sketching on location. And what was Lizzie up to when she was acting sneaky?   ...

Halfway the 100 day project, how is it going?

In my previous post, I shared how recently it was time to shake things up. For a little while my steady routine went out the doors and we traveled all the way south to Portugal, I went on my very first art retreat with artists...

Nature walks + working on my 100-day project (video)

A glimpse into quiet spring days with my dogs—some time by the lake, creative flow in the studio, and the small moments in between. I’m working on my 100-day project, drawing dogs from our Instagram community, and soaking up the season as it slowly unfolds....

Happy birthday Mogwai!

Happy Birthday, Mogwai & siblings <3 12 years of the best gremlin in the world, the sweetest Momootje, always by my side. Endless energy, endless love. Special birthdays require special efforts, so when we visited Belgium, we drove to the beach for early birthday walks. The dogs were...

Sauna dog

It's all true, except for the color of her towel and button, these are pink (but I couldn't find my pink marker). Lizzie adores the sauna, requests us to turn it on, and is very specific about her spot (top seat). If you're worried, she's free...
