Plein air sketch

Sketch of a street in Rotterdam. These houses will be demolished soon, and have been neglected for a while now. You can see nature taking over. I loved the light when I decided to do the sketch here. It was cloudy, occasionally raining, but also sunny from time to time, which gave the backlit grass a vibrant coloring.

Alice in Wonderland

Exploring style and technique for illustrating the adventures of Alice in Wonderland.
