Drawings

This was made when I was 15 during a period when I used red and black felt pens. This is the only one left. Other made where destroyed during some fights among siblings. Typical for teenagers I believe.

This was also made when I was 15 during the period of red and black felt pens. Though it only became a sketch. If I remember it correct I did not thought the colors of red and black was right for this drawing so I waited with coloring it, and never finished it.

Now age 16 and still using felt pens. Got my self some more colors but never finished the drawing. Do we see a pattern here?

Now age 17 and developing towards aquarelle painting. This is a rare one cause it is painted on real aquarelle paper. I made it on a sugestion from one of my friends. It is an illustration of Gandalf's ride to Mordor, from the triology Lord of the Rings by Tolkien.

In age 25 I had developed my aquarelle painting. This was made from a photo. I promised to do it for a women I do not know, and to send her the drawing when it was finished. Nearly a year passed until I finished it. By then I had lost the address. Still fits in to some kind of behavioral pattern;-)

When I thought my self aquarelle painting I could not afford to buy the aquarelle paper. I painted on plain sketch paper insted and got used to it. So this painting is made on plain paper without the aquarelle grain and vividness. The structure of the aquarelle paper gives a special vividness to a painting because of how the light breaks on its grained surface and how the color spread on it. This paper is plain which gives a matt to the painting.
