( I'll start in Dutch, please scroll down for English )
Eind vorig jaar ben ik benaderd door Carla Sonheim, die mij vroeg of ik gast kunstenaar wilde zijn in haar nieuwe boek: Drawing and Painting Imaginary Animals en deze maand is het boek gepubliceerd. Hierboven zie je de omslag. Het boek is in het Engels, maar haar vorige boek: Tekenlab is beschikbaar in het Nederlands.
Ik heb het boek van de week in de post gekregen. Het is een hartstikke leuk boekje en ik ben echt heel trots dat mijn werk er ook in staat. Het is een werkboek voor het maken van fantasie dieren. Het bevat allerlei ideetjes, tips en oefeningen, voor tekenen, schilderen en ook knutselen. Alle oefeningen worden uitgebreid uitgelegd, met veel foto's. Je krijgt zin om er lekker mee aan de slag te gaan als je het leest. Het boekje laat tevens het werk zien van twaalf gast kunstenaars uit diverse landen, waaronder ondergetekende.
Deze twee sumi-E's van mij zijn in het boek opgenomen:
Ter promotie van het boek mag ik 1 exemplaar weggeven middels loting.
Dat gaat als volgt: wil je in aanmerking komen voor een gratis exemplaar, laat dan hieronder een reactie achter. Op 7 oktober zal ik dan met een programmaatje (random.com) de winnaar bepalen.Van de winnaar zal ik het adres vragen en doorgeven aan Carla en zij zorgt ervoor dat het boek bij jou terecht komt. Natuurlijk zal ik op de blog melden wie de gelukkige winnaar is.
Kijk ook eens op Carla Sonheim's blog en op haar website. Online biedt zij ook allerlei ideetjes en oefeningen voor tekenen, schilderen en knutselen.
Het boek ik ook bij bol.com te koop
en nu voor de Engelstaligen :
