Chestnut art

Hey guys!

I had a day off today and after I finished my homework I was really tired and didn't feel like doing anything. I knew I'd regret it later if I wouldn't do anything with my free day, so I left home for a short walk through the neighbourhood. I found an almost flat chestnut and really like its shape and shine, so I took it home.
I really didn't know what to do with the chestnut. I looked in a magazine my mom got yesterday when she bought something at the store Ici Paris XL when I saw an advertisment from J'adore Dior. I think you've all seen this bottle more than once. I think it's beautifully designed, but if you look at the cap, what do you see? I see... A chestnut!


I put my chestnut on the picture and I really liked the look. While I was reading more and more of the magazine, I saw some pics that I really liked, especially with a chestnut on it. I cut them out of the magazine and here's the result.

-Dior-

-M&M-

-Dolce & Gabbana-

-Allerhande-

-Clinique-

-Arla-

-Beauty/Ici Paris XL-

-Thierry Mugler-

-Allerhande- This is the picture I like the most and I made this out of it with the site www.picmonkey.com


I'm not a really good photographer, but I hope you like it!

Random things

Hey guys!

It's been one and a half months since I last posted something here and in the meantime I made a lot of random things that have nothing to do with eachother, so this post just doesn't have a theme, sorry!

Anyway, I'm just gonna show you what I did.


A quick sketch I made when I was at my dad's house. It was impossible to explain to my little brother why I wasn't colouring exactly between the lines when he learnt at school that he had to do that!


This drawing is inspired by my stepsister (wow, that sounds weird. Anyway, the daughter of my mom's boyfriend), because she really likes butterflies and coca cola, so I made this out of it.

I made this sketch when I was on a holiday to Italy. I drew for 7 hours straight, with a few stops to pee, drink and eat. I'm really curious if you can find the meaning of this drawing. If you think you know it, please tell me!


This was my drawing for a Disney back to school contest on instagram. I must say that I've never heard the result, but I got 133 likes (that's around 110 more than I usually get), so I'm still happy with it!




I made these too yesterday (I have project week this week, so a lot of free time :))

And last but not least, two drawings I lost. One was for my bodypump teacher, because she left :( And the other one... I seriously don't know where it is. Mom?





Have a nice day!
