Happy Queens-day!

It's Queens-day in the Netherlands today! Wishing everyone who's celebrating today a very fun, happy and of course orange day!!

I'm taking my giraffe shopping in SoHo today

We are having friends over this week. And I know it's time for some retail therapy! SoHo here we come...!

Bansky meets Pekelharing...

I watched "Exit Through The Gift Shop" the other day. (http://www.banksyfilm.com/ ) It's a great movie...it's the inside story about street art, with some amazing artists, but really also a movie about hyping something.


I wouldn't mind to be hyped...if only I had the nerve...

Rhino in Central Park illustration

Wunderground.com said it was 96 F (33 C) today! Summer has definitely started in NYC! In Central Park everybody is playing outside with their friends these days. It just that some friends are great for a lunch date and others perfect for hangin' at the playground, it aint easy to find that one friend that is great no matter what you want to do....

Wild Things

This little girl is my newest family member. I loved this picture of her so much. You just know she will grow up and live in a forest where she will teach a grizzly to do a juggling act. It's pretty clear she at least has the right attitude at the age of 2 months.

So I made her this painting... When she's 4 I'll give her an outfit like that..no pressure..., it just would be so cool to have a tamer of Wild Things in the family.

sketches

Three new sketches...for a new birth announcement card. There is something real fun about elephants.
