OK, I'm not saying it's mind-blowingly good. Rather, I want to allude to how this picture came about: I painted it with a hammer! You can find the complete creation process on my blog at https://christiandrab.de.

I saw this quote recently and it really hit home for me... So very accurate these days.

I designed this house. It has a really pretty blue exterior, and it has a slight curve to it that gives it a more warm and inviting feel. I like how the walkway kind of curves into the stairs and transitions back into the walkway before arriving at the front door. I like that there’s plenty of yard space with some really nice landscaping. The birds can even come and get a birdbath. I thought that was really cute. I used the multicolored stones to add detail for a more distinguished look. The hedges are neatly cut in a square and follows along side of the house. Looking through those gorgeous windows you can see the house is fully furnished. There are some really pretty chandeliers in there that adds character. There’s a stairway that leads to another level of the house as well. I love how there’s a touch of yellow that highlights the points on the rooftop. Furthermore, the swing in the backyard adds an inviting feel to the scenery. Also, it’s a nice place to sit and enjoy the view.

Some time ago, I injured myself. This inspried me for this little drawing. Acylic ink and pastel on watercolor paper.

Creating in like-minded company is a blissful experience, that much is true! Boy I’ve missed drawing clubs… :-)
