Girl with Leaves 2015-01-19 / 10:26

I wish i had more time for drawing again. But being all grown up and stuff means to manage your time wisely. I just could draw this because i woke up too early today.

Beside this some quick fun facts (because my last post is from 2012):
- i or we (alex & i) are married now since january 2013
- we finally moved back to our hometown munich
- i gave up on being an art director in advertising agencies and became selfemployed instead
- selfemployment is the best thing i could have ever done (except for taxes ... i hate doing my taxes like all the time)
- we got the cutest little dog - coco

...yeah i think beside this fun facts i am sure much more did happen but i am just too lazy to write it down.

so happy new year you all!
- sandra

acryl jesus girl wip step 1 2011-12-11 / 06:07

i was kinda frustrated the past weeks with drawing. i had a head full of crazy ideas and never thought they were "creative" enough. so i just stopped thinking. i was like - dont think for tattoo designs for a moment - and got my acryl stuff out of my box. this is now the first steps of my acryl jesus girl. its kinda rough...cant remember that you had to be that pacient about this technique. but now i understand when i told ppl in the past when i said i draw 9 hours on a day for one acrylic painting. so we will see how it will work out.

another girls 'n cakes 2011-07-18 / 07:47

i had a flu - and since i havent done a cake for alex last week because i was ill - i made this orange cake today. and you see - i havent even cleaned up the place and alex just ate almost half of the cake! but thats good - i try to get him some weight on his bony hips. he lost some weight the past weeks - and he already was a skinny boy before.... some more news on my new life status you can read on tumblr in the next few hours.

kisses!

lalala - what the hell - lalala 2011-07-11 / 15:13

lines for that girl!

i cant sleep and i really dont know why. havent eat today - i dont know why either i havent done this too. i just wasnt hungry. maybe my body wants to tell me something i dont know yet. maybe i am stressed out - but i dont feel like stressed out. more like.."lalalala - wth - lalalala". my brain is just empty. really. maybe its because i have been ought to think so much in the last few days - so maybe there is only a dry desert in my brain area right now.

lalala.

shadings 2011-06-11 / 07:38

ppl gave me the advise when i start a drawing to complete it at once - but i just figured out that this just doesnt work for me. i have to have like up to 6 or more lines for diffrent drawings done before i start shading them all at once. shadings are...not easyer but its a step on finishing drawings where i can easily switch between pics. i like to switch cause sometimes i am stuck on one and have to think of it - then i just can take another and make the easy shades. so everyone has has his own rhythm i think :)

finally..i am drawing again! (naked girl-drawings O.O) 2011-04-18 / 11:40

i havent been here for a while. i have done some work meanwhile..i wont show you all cause some are allready packed up to some save and totally secret places (just kidding..i am just too lazy to take some pics of 'em - those ere the last ones on my desk haha^^).

dont ask me why i have drawn those female cut bodies. i kinda was inspired by audrey kawasaki and some odd old zombie-pics of mine. the girl was just some practice peace - and i will use it for an coloring practice. the rose is just the second peace of a frame set that alex started..so he made another rose weeks ago for a frame - and this frame has a twin frame that i have to fill with my rose. we will see how they will look like together.

i havent finished mr. wrinkles yet cause i was more in doing lines. so you will be seeing some monster around soon or some colored stuff. we will see ;)

(btw. i was on the fleamarket and got those beautiful two twin frames (not those i have talked before - those are another pair of twin frames...i really love fleamarkets - i also got a mirror for 3 euros - i will take a picture as soon as i have painted it from gold to white yessshhh)

see you soon.

thank you for stopping by!

cheers,
sandra

Few is the number who think with their own minds and feel with their own hearts.

about me...

Oh, HI! Hello sweethearts! here i tell you a lil bit about myself. Something "private" to give you a lil bit of sugar.

1988 i was born in munich - you know that city in germany with the oktoberfest and beer and fat germans who only eat "prezels" and sausages. i am vegetarian btw. my mother is african and my dad german. we moved around a lot when i was a kid - but i never mind evengthough i think thats that the reason why i cant get really personal with ppl.

i was a wild teenager - with alcohol, too much partying and too much kissing around - and never had a real boyfriend cause i loved my freedom! and then i met alex who is my boyfriend now... we meet at an art-fest in munich and somehow we stuck together and i really do love him!

i was always intrested in art. my grandparents were both architects and artists. i remember my first painting i gave my grandpa for present was a skeleton of a squirrel. i think i knew that i would be a lil bit metal by heart then haha!

i got my first tattoo when i was 12 or 14...cant remember but i do remember that my mom just asked me if i want one cause my sister was getting one and sure i said yes - cause i always wanted exactly the same what my big sister tatiana got!

so thats it - here you see my WIP work and love. i hope you enjoy it. -That's me
