To be there, but still not. The mind absent. Focusing on details and forgetting the whole. Bored to the bones. Wishing to be or not to be.    Ink pen drawing on a A2 paper. It's larger than what I usually do. This one is 42.0 x 59.4cm or 16.53 x 23.39 inches.   I’m thinking of adding some color to it. But the paper is quite thin so I’m not sure. Maybe I’ll just leave it like it is..   #drawing #art #ink #pendrawing #skull #hand #stippling #hatching #bird #birdart #thinking #tobeornottobe #hamlet #shakespear #bored #boredom #contemplation #details #lineart #parrot #tree #branch #blackworknow #penandinkartt #blackandwhite #patterns (på/i Hammarby Sjöstad) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEZXa8CHuaZ/?igshid=2gfsb06c8ckf

Forest spill I made the first sketch for this drawing after a dream I had one night where I saw this picture. After that I have been working on it a little bit here and there for a few months. So it's been a long process. So I'm happy that I finally have come to a stage where I feel I can call this finished. Instead of potentially influencing you by telling you my own thoughts about it, I think it's more interesting to leave it to you to have your own thoughts and feealings about it. If you want to share any of those here, that would be awesome. :) #drawing #illustration #inkdrawing #fineliner #pendrawing #blackwork #blackandwhite #crosshatching #stippling #technology #history #parts #forest #oilspill #spill #art #arty #linework #surrealism #trees #pineforest #pinetrees #coggs #tradisional #digital (på/i Skärholmen, Stockholms Län, Sweden) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5vg6w5nH09/?igshid=budebte1kvfl

#18 Misfit Going back to a sketch I made during Inktober. The 18’th of inktober had the prompt “Misfit”. I liked the sketch, so now I came back to it. As I see it, sometimes it can be good to be the misfit. :) Ink pen and grey color markers drawing on A5 (14,8 x 21 cm) paper.

Birch Bark Ink pen drawing on A5 (14,8 x 21 cm) paper. Don’t you just love the bark on a birch tree? It kind of looks like the map of some place with white islands on a dark water. People have been saying a few different things about what they think this looks like when they were walking past me while I drew this. What do you think this is? #drawing🎨 #inkdrawing #pendrawing #thinlines #birch #birchbark #blacklines #art #abstract #shapestudy #mapart #blackwater #bark #map #archipelago #abstractdrawing #reddetails #barkshapes (på/i Stockholm, Sweden) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4k6u_hnPMP/?igshid=7df1ie4nr2uo

#2 Mindless "More than 8 million tons of plastic are dumped in our oceans every year" @plasticoceans I hope we find a way to change our ways of mindless consumption and mindless dumping of waste, toxins, CO2, etc. etc. Let's be hopefull! And of course, lets be mindful! This inktober piece took me a bit too much time and effort. I will try to be a bit less ambitious here on out. #inktober #inktober2019 #art #inkdrawing #ink #fish #plastic #plasticoceans #plasticbag #drawing #pendrawing #mindless #blackandwhite #underwater #pen #bass #sea #occean #perch https://www.instagram.com/p/B3IWRQvnQ--/?igshid=b77eocc7vfmy

Coleus Plant Finally finishen the plant piece. Special thanks to @mariasoderquist who gave me the cutting of this caleus plant that inspired this drawing. I experimented with some aquarelle colours with this one. That was especially challenging because of my colour blindness makes it difficult to distinguish diffent grades of purples. What do you think of the colours? I gladly take suggestions of what to draw in this style. I like a challenge. #art #plant #coleus #aquarelle #ink #pen #pattern #mandala #drawing #purple #art🎨 #colorblind #colourblind #childhood #parenthood #awe

More progress on the plant piece. I decided to outline the plant. What do you think, was it an improvement? #aquarelle #pen #fineliner #pattern #abstract #mandala #plant #drawing #painting
