2008 ink and watercolors

(2B pencil on A6 card) A parody of the type of advert you'd see in the old comic books. What nasty little child wouldn't want something as wonderful as this?

(2B pencil on a 87mm x 139mm postcard) X-ray specs were an iconic mail order item in comics. It was one of the first things that kids bought that introduced them to the world of dubious adverts. I kept the image here simple, like the original advert.

Just at that moment she glanced towards him and saw him smiling at her, his eyes lingering on her with warmth and an indefinable something else, her heart caught in her chest. - Emily Arden

I will remember the kisses, our raw lips with love, and how you gave me everything and how I offered you what was left of me - Charles Bukowski

(2B pencil on a 198mm x 124mm book title page) Profanity is a common form of blasphemy. Here, I've used it in a similar way as you'd see fonts used in the old Letraset catalogues. Plus, nobody says "fadge" anymore, and that used to be a good swear-word.

Mermaids out of water.

Before I moved, I worked for several years in agriculture. It was hard work, but I have fond memories of that time. My son, by chance, also loves the outdoors and working with his hands. I love gardening together

Elias Rosenshaw 7/14/2026 - Acrylic paint & acrylic gouache on watercolour paper.

I was listening to Neonis song The Tower and I created this. Plus I need to work on scenes.

The new chapter is in progress and one of the two scenes is already written, but for now I've made the cover for the fanfic and the masterlist, hehe. Mostly this was just an experiment with black and white and some brushes.

I am illustrating a children's book for an author who is self-publishing. The story is about her granddaughter who wants a guinea pig and has to learn how to care for it.

I really want to put more work into my pictures. So I'm gonna work more on outfits, objects and backgrounds.
