                @johanna-puhl Loving the details! And I also really like the colour scheme and the line-work. My lines always seem too harsh when the colour is added. I like how your lines sometimes have a bit of the colour of the subject in it. May I ask how you achieve that look? Do you work out the linework and then tweak the colours later or add the linework after you've finished colouring?

                Anyway, I like your work! Followed you on Instagram 🙂

                      Uneasy Hearts Weigh The Most.
                      This is the name of a song by Dance Gavin Dance and also the title of my Octopus-Drawing. Even though the drawing itself has got nothing to do with the meaning of the song, I thought it's a funny coincidence that an octopus has three hearts. That's why I used it as an anchor. Anyway, I hope you'll like it!

                                          This piece was a massive undertaking, and I'm very proud of it. Thank you for the challenge!!!

                                          You know, when were kids, our parents only had to worry about us eating play-doh....

                                          My piece is titled Tide High, and everything is made out play-doh except the little paper boat which was made out of, well paper.
