fully booked

this is roughly what my mom's new book is going to look like. i'm not sure about some points; whether i should remove the square that overlaps the title or whether the illustration looks really shitty. i'm not sure about the colors, either. the text on the back cover is the same one from the last book. that is going to change when the new text arrives. you see, i am in such a determined state:)

edit: i think this one is more like it. let's see what mom thinks...

endless repetitions

my lovely dear shopping bag is finished. i had to sew it again and again and again, until the constant 'ra-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta-ta' clatter of the machine was filling my nightmares. you can't believe how stupid mistakes i made along the way (should i turn this backwards? oops-wrong side!). my next steps will be doing a lot of paranoid investigations. can i have it produced? in what volumes? at what price? who is going to be interested in it? those are some unanswered questions for now. but hey, if all questions were answered, it would be such a boring life, wouldn't it?

i think it might be around 45 degrees inside (i couldn't find the stupid 'degree' sign on the keyboard, do you know which key to stroke?) i need to go on with a lot of other work; my mom's book cover for one, but i'm kind of cooked right now. more images and animations are about to come, so stay tuned!

trees again?

once again it is time for me to design a book cover for my mom. she is doing it again! hehe she is one of my most consistent customers:D i hope this time the publishers do get the color right... nowadays i have this problem of too many things going on in my mind. so i'm trying to calm down a little. every project one by one. breathe in. breathe out. as for the cover, let's see what happens:)

how are you and your mind doing these days?

don't keep us waiting!

i have been asked to design my 3rd book cover! the problem is, first the book needs to be written:) that'll happen soon, i'm sure. or one day...

i've got a lot going on my mind. i have to prepare lessons like crazy. still i'm glad that i can find time to deal with my own projects. and feel depressed evey now and then:) it's important to have time to fully embrace depression. and to stare at the walls.

some nice photos coming soon! when there are no images, i hardly find anything to talk about. hmmm.
