I usually don't post blog posts about commissions, but this time I want to make an exception. This painting and commission is very special to me - let me explain why.
Dealing with challenges as a vanlife artist

As I mentioned in a previous post, being on the road as an artist brings a couple of challenges. As I also mentioned – this is a huge motivator for me! I thought I’d write a little post with three practical solutions made up on the road.

I really can’t explain the joy I feel when I get to spend time in nature. Buying a little campervan is one of the best choices I’ve made as it gives me the opportunity to work from a mobile studio and paint in unbelievably beautiful spots.

I thought it was time for a little update on what’s going on in this unpredictable artist life of mine! Time has really been flying by since I packed my studio into my van and started driving south.

A long time ago I started dreaming of a studio on wheels. I was fantasizing about traveling around the world but still being able to be creative and work with my art on the road.

I really love exploring new ways to work with my art, and trying out something different from time to time. Ideally tying it to my other interests in one way or another. Maybe this is the start of a new path?

One of the beautiful things about working as a freelancer is that I can work from basically anywhere. Last week I arrived to a gorgeous little village in Greece called Leonídio.

I’ve been very excited about painting on objects lately. As I upgraded from painting skateboards to painting a surfboard, I also finally decided to give my ukulele a little refreshing coat.
Figuring figures out

After not really doing any proper from-life studies in probably a couple of years, I finally decided to join a figure drawing class again. I've been telling myself at least a hundred times that I want to practice more technical drawing, as well as illustrating, and that I should take a bit of time every day to improve these skills, but why is it so hard to set new habits!?
Moving past the worries

As some of you know, I have painted a couple of skateboards the last view years. These have been pretty popular and I have really enjoyed making them.

Another year and another Christmas! I would like to wish you all a happy holiday, even though Christmas has already passed at this point. I really hope that you all got to spend it with your nearest and dearest despite these weird times, or at least got the time for doing things you love and recharging the batteries before diving into the next year.
