Weekend in the country

Here are two portraits of my friends Ricky and Melissa, drawn quickly with colerase on paper.

This was during our morning chit chat during breakfast.

Those big fat cheeks

I was at the grocery store the other day, and saw this adorable girl who looked just like a cartoon! Resisted the urge to go and pinch her cheeks!

Les vacances!

Some quick doodles , again from a picture book I am trying to develop.

...the wind blowing in my face, in my hair, almost dizzying.

How I miss summer and those car rides with the windows down!

'Je veux pas!'

Little doodle of some children book story idea I’ve been working on this weekend.

Automatic doors

I think I've become spoiled by our modern technology.

.Zzzz.

Weekend Doodle

I wish my window had a ledge so I can do exactly that on weekends!

Winter Fat

This is my strategy for winter….plump up to stay warm, and then shed it all in the summer!

Odile

Here’s a little sketch of a girl, inspired from ‘Odile’, the character of Jean-Luc Godard 1964 movie “Band of Outsiders”.

I was watching it last night and found the black and white images absolutely beautiful, and terribly inspiring! 

…I found myself wondering, what the real colours of her clothes might have been.

Forever 20

...a conversation I overheard on my way to work, one morning.
It made me smile and at the same time, mourn my youth.

My Enlarging Head!

...leaving me perplexed and worried.

Huddled little girl

On the Road

Cat Mania

I dedicate this one to my sister Lian, she will most definitely recognize herself.

Children and their pets

It was a quiet weekend for me, so I decided to get back to watercolour. I haven’t touched it for a while and it felt good to go back to it again.

Here’s a series of little characters I came up with this last weekend: ’Children with their pets’

C'est l'été!

it's summer, lets celebrate!

My Balcony

The Ball

This little story happened to my sister yesterday (we live right across from a preschool, so these things happen a lot!)
