Row, row, row your boat,
Gently down the stream
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream

Frustration and Inspiration





Sometimes it feels like pushing that huge stone up the very same mountain again and again. And it never comes out like it was in your mind.


The trick must be not to dwell on it and to move on constantly. Next, next, next…just do and don’t judge too much. Next drawing, next scene, next tale.

In between sessions on the current work it seems to be a good idea to do something completely different, just for fun and step back. I don’t mean walking off do go shopping or lazing around, no, more like having another project but in a very different technique and for a different purpose.

Somehow it makes things stay fresh! Less worrying if this works or that. More doing!

To get away from my fiddling around with minute details I started collages. So much fun! Sources are everywhere, and colours are suddenly easy to come by, no frowning necessary :o)
