So here is the final sketch with the last attempts to  paint chocolate so far. I’m not sure you would know that it is chocolate because the colors are a bit strange. Perhaps I was eager finishing the sketch and eat the dessert:-) Happy holidays! Hier sind dann die letzten Pralinen aus dem Kalender. Die…

Some more calories you don’t have to eat… I had to, sadly 🙂  The nougat was a new one and it was on the edge of being too sweet. Yes, there is something like „too sweet“ for me:-) Noch eine ziemlicher Stapel Kalorien, die Ihr zum Glück nicht essen müsst… ich musste, leider:-) Der Nougat…

Yes, you’ve already seen some of this forms before but I assure you this are different ones. And the one on the left side looking a bit crumbly was a new one and very yummy… hope it is in the calendar somewhere another time! Sie wiederholen sich tatsächlich, die Pralinchen. Aber es sind tatsächlich andere,…

More food for chocoholic. The one in the right corner is the same like the one on December 01 and it was equally tasty:-) Noch mehr Futter für Schokoholiker. Die unten rechts war schon mal da und hat genau so gut geschmeckt wie die vom ersten Dezember:-)

Leider sinkt die Lebenserwartung dieser Schönheiten rapide, sobald das Törchen geöffnet ist!

So I challenged myself to make a little sketch of the contents of this years Advent calendar given to me by my parents. So here…

more fast Amaryllis

Here are two more 10-minute-sketches from the workshop (here are the first two). The second one looks a bit pale but somehow I like it too. Hier sind noch zwei 10-Minuten-Skizzen vom Workshop (hier sind die ersten beiden). Die zweite Blüte fällt ein wenig blass aus, aber ich mag sie trotzdem… irgendwie.

fast Amaryllis

Last Saturday I attended a watercolor workshop. The aim was to catch amaryllis within 10 minutes time for each one and focus on the form. A good practice for me because I am too slow and like to fiddle around too much. Although it was hard for me to hurry up I like the results…
