New stuff

I know it's been a while since I haven't posted anything but life got weird.
I'll not go into details about it, instead I want to post a pic with some new art stuff I just got the other day.
I'm happy about it and I can't wait to sketch up something.

Also I guess some Spring cleaning is in order so I might trash up some of the old brushes. Not certain about it yet.

Also here are some sketches done last week. I totally love this cartoonish way and I intend to explore it further.

Here's a new personal work.

Sketches

Here's a speed painting.
Inspiration for this came from several movies I've seen based on Charlotte & Emily Bronte books.
Even though I didn't want to draw Jane Eyre my title for this sketch is 'The governess'.

And some other sketches:

Happy New Year

Happy New Year!

What do you wish from 2013?
Personally I would like more time to work and focus and inspiration.

Here's a few pictures I made on a trip.

2012 Works

Works that I did for a project.

Merry Christmas

And holidays are back again. :)
I've been quite happy since I got a great and unexpected gift this year. An intuos 5. It's really thin and it doesn't take so much space like my old one.
Here's some differences:

Also the difference from 1024 pressure sensitivity to 2048 it's quite nice.

I'm a bit worried about the plastic nib intuos 5 has. I only used it for a few days and it's already blunt. The one from my old intuos 3 took months to get on this stage. Might be because of the surface, intuos 5 has actually a great grip.

Anyway, here's the first drawing I made with it...
