Careful with that snake

A random sketch of let's say, two generations of fortune tellers. Ink, markers, water colour on crappy paper.

Snake hunting

Just testing a new lino cut, for the very fine French anthology Turkey Comix (as in: the funny-looking bird, not the country). The snake is the two-headed Amphisbeana from the medieval bestiariums. Maybe that is not that obvious. In the Middle Ages you could at least be certain that it had to be the Devil's work. Ah, let them wonder what it is. Anyway, this still needs fixing in places. And I ran out of all blockprint inks, except bright red. Don't like red.

Centauroid

Another centauroid in trouble. Its tail is obviously infected.

My show in Nancy, France

Until the 23rd of April 2011 will my show continue at the MJC Lillebonne, 14 Rue du Cheval Blanc in the centre of Nancy, France. This is one of the poster-size digital prints I have done with the support of the BKVB Art Fund in Amsterdam. They work really well as the eye-catching element as most of my original artwork tends to be small, not larger than A3 size.

The opening went nicely, in a friendly atmosphere and with lots of good snacks and drinks - yes, the French live up to their reputation, I must say, when it comes to that.

More snapshots can be found on the blog of Matthias Lehmann, who organised the show. http://www.blocmatthias.blogspot.com/
