Hello all,
looks like I post with the seasons, though my last entry was over a year ago. Gee, and I´m still not the wiser, what a pity
I don´t know if it has to do with what happend during the last months (mainly nothing exciting, just all-day-life), but I´ve returned to using light and obviously gay colours, layering them upon my canvasses to achieve a sense of depth. It´s been a while since I´ve actually used anything darker than Paynes Grey (charcoal doesn´t count)and I´m fine with it. It´s a challenge to build up shadows and plasticity with shades of blue, red and whatever else resides on my palette. I also have become accustomed to paint with pigments (mixed with acrylic binder) instead of tube colours, the difference is immense once you´ve seen the brightness of the pigments. Granted, they are rather more expensive, but it´s worth it.
Currently I work with:
Zinc white (PW 4)
Titanium white (PW 6)
Cadmium yellow lemon (PY 35)
Vermilion Red (PR 255)
Ultramarine Blue deep (PB 29)
Indigo (PB 66)
Phtalo Blue (PB 15:3)
Bohemian green earth (PG 23)
Chromium oxide green brilliant (PG 18)
Yellow Ochre (Py 43)
Pozzuoli earth (PR 101)
Caput mortuum deep (PR 101)
Black iron oxide (PBk 11)
All of these are Schmincke colours, but since their quality is very good, they are recommendable.

Summer, work and finally sunshine!
Hey,
thanks for still watching my page :-) I know, I haven't put something new up in a long time, but life is full of work at the moment - internship at the psychiatric hospital for three whole months. Very interesting, but it's a workload, which I thankfully do with a wonderful study collegue and friend of mine :-)
I hope I'll have some time in the future to post more than just scraps.
Hugs to you all,
love, Blacki
Happy Christmas time!

Another year went by so fast, it´s hard to keep up :D
Thank you for all the encouraging comments and for choosing to watch my work.
I´ve got a lot to do right now, my studies, my work and an internsship - all of these three things demand most of my time (I need a day that last longer than 24h ;)), but I try not to ignore my artistic streak.
A little sidenote:
Please, if you want to contact me or send me a message, whatever, send me an email to the email adress that is displayed beneath. Otherwise I´m likely not to answer, not because I´m mean, but because I tend to log off while totally forgetting the

All I can say is wow and thank you to all Deviants out there who took their time to take a look at my gallery.
It´s a wonderful present at the New Year´s beginning, especially when the last weeks of the old year haven´t been exactly great for me, because my grandfather died just a week before christmas and I wasn´t in good health either.
But your support and comments on my artwork means very much to me and encourage me.
Thanks for that.
Love Ya and Take care,

Well, I´m ashamed that I´ve let you wait so long for new pictures... truth is, I haven´t had much time to produce proper artwork during the last months, lots of things happened, not all of them positive.
I struggle to find my rythm again... now with my studies continuing and so on...
Just want to say: You guys out there are truly amazing, your comments are so dear to me, I appreciate your reviews on my work and I´m very grateful forso much pageviews: over 8,000!!!!
Love all of you, I really do :D
Take care and my best wishes to you.
Inspiration does exist, but it must find you working.
