I had to take a break from my daily creativity posting, because my day job is just too overwhelming at the moment. It includes working late and on the weekends, and I am just too exhausted to post something every day. As I don’t want this project to be something I have to do, but something fun that I want …
Be Creative 2014: Inspiration by Luke Pearson
Last week I got the book EVERYTHING WE MISS by Luke Peason. It is a story about loss, and missing people, forgetting memories and everything that you value emotionally in your life. It is probably one of the saddest stories I’ve ever read, and there is no happy ending. Luke Pearson explores loss on different levels: Losing someone who yo …
Be Creative 2014: Exploring Animation
Today I started to explore the animation tools in Photoshop. It will take some time until I get where I want to be, but this is the good thing about this year’s 365 project: I don’t have to deliver something that is not ready. It is about the creative process, not a “finished” result per day. So stay tuned until …
Be Creative 2014: The Dancing Fox
I am toying around with the blue linocut fox I made a few days ago. I want to animate a little sequence in Photoshop. It’s fun, and I am getting used to working with my new Wacom tablet (I never had a graphic tablet before. Very exciting!). Here is a little teaser:
Be Creative 2014: Hello, Vine!
I am going to get creative with the Vine app a little bit. I was searching the web for some inspiration by creative Vine users, but I could hardly find any. Creative Vine people, where are you? I stumbled upon this great account by Brock Davis. I really like his visual humor. Here is my own Vine account. And …
Be Creative: Social Network Drawing
I am a lot on Facebook. Maybe I am a bit addicted, but on the other hand there are so many great links and activities from my friends that generate a constant flow of (mostly) interesting stuff. As I find it really hard to squeeze in focused time for drawing in my script consulting job schedule, I started doodling the …
Be Creative 2014: Inspiration by The New Yorker
Some years ago I subscribed to The New Yorker. In recent months I have sometimes thought about canceling it, because I have hardly time to read anything. But when I lose myself in one of the long, well written articles every few weeks, I cannot but extend the subscription again – for me this is simply one of the best …
Be Creative 2014: Work Life Balance
Today was the first real working day after my two weeks holiday break. I am working as a script consultant in the tv and film industry for 10 years now, and I still love my job. But finding the balance between work and my creative life is not always easy, also in terms of energy. I managed to squeeze in …
Be Creative 2014: Inspiration by Victo Ngai
I love the internet, because I am finding tons of inspiration and can study the work of the most talented artists. Losing myself in the creative worlds of others is also part of my project. So every now and then I am going to share images and websites that inspire me. I am starting with Victo Ngai, an illustrator from …
Be Creative 2014: Portfolio and Practice
I finally uploaded my first work on my Behance portfolio. You can now meet the Talking Cookies there, and more will follow. I am just beginning to explore the Behance network – there is some excellent work to be found, and lots of inspiration! I also started sketching. I want to revisit a linocut I did in 2012. I was …
