Raise your hand if you want to travel!

                                                            *Raises hand like crazy*

Yes I feel like traveling. It doesnt have to be a month long journey to the other side of the world. Just a few days somewhere in Europe would do. Traveling I believe is one of the most inspiring things in the world. Even if I'm only going some place for a couple of days I come back home with my head filled with fresh ideas for stories and drawings.
The (oil) painting above is the one I've created just after visiting Amsterdam in 2008. 

Random Saturday morning thoughts

It's Saturday morning. I'm feeling very optimistic. I've been looking for no particular reason to some of the oil paintings I've done a couple of years ago. Yes I'm very well aware that the first two sentences have very little to do with the the third and the photo I'm posting but I thought I'd write them anyway since this is how I feel.
OK back to the painting. I've recently been looking a lot at my old oil paintings and thinking about how different it is to work now with watercolors instead. Hence why I'm posting this now. I like this park in the picture, kinda wish I was going for a walk there now.
