After the coffebreak at MÆT café we sketched down Trekronergade, where two top sketches are from

Bagergade, Svendborg

Spent the last couple of days decorating a music room at a local school, with the help from the pupils. And had the time to sketch a very good friend's house

Tømmergravsgade


Sunday sketchcrawling in Sydhavn.
I have been looking at this house to sketch for a long time, it is so damn big. This sketch doesn't really show how big it actually is. About 50 meters from there, amongst shrubbery and junk, you will find this old boat wreck. It's not really vandalised, just rotting to pieces

Vigerslevvej

Back at Vigerselvvej, I don't think there's much That I haven't drawn on this street. 
The red tower in this sketch, is the local fire station where my grandfarther was a voluntary firefighter.
I have been passing under this bridge about a million times, but it was not until a couple of weekes ago, that I realised the beauty of the different lines and shapes

Sketching Malmø on a rainy day

I did this sketch using a the Kuretake brush pen no. 13, which I really enjoy sketching with. But for urban sketching I'm not really sure I think it adds value to the sketch, infact I will most probably not use it in the future for this type of sketching. Any way this is a sketch done in Malmø on a rainy day this weekend

Hareskoven


A trip deep into the Forest with a sketchbook, a brushpen and some watercolours.
I don't find sketching trees that hard, more relaxing, but leaves - man they are hard to draw properly

Copenhagen Sketchcrawl no. 48




Dodging showers, house boats blocking the view, and nosy drunk tourist, not the greatest odds for a good sketch, but with good company, and a great event it ended as a good day out sketching with the Copenhagen Sketchcrawl gang

Weekend sketching



City and Country, sketches from this weekend.
Went to Hareskoven (forest near Copenhagen) with my daughter and best friend. Spend most of the time having fun playing, but did get a chance to do a sketch of the trees, while the little one was having a break. 
Valbymaskin fabrik, another sight from my one of my favourite neighbourhoods in Copenhagen -I'll be back. Not because I managed to do a bit too many mistakes on this sketch, but because there is more to sketch

Summer holiday sketching




summer holiday sketching at Sjællands Odde, in a summerhouse near Nykøbing Sjælland.
A relaxing week with the wife and daughter, great friends, a couple of sketchbooks and not to forget, nice beer.
The yellow summer house was the cutest in the area, according to my wife - and she's always right

Byskitsning i Politiken

Forside af IBYEN, Politiken den 26. juni 2015

Jep, endelig, byskitsning har fundet vej til Politiken.
Tjek linket HER - og med et lille interview med mig, uuuh.
Jeg er dog ikke ved at brække mig over mit arbejde, jeg elsker mit liv som illustrator og føler mig utrolig heldig, at jeg kan leve af det.

Nordre Fasanvej

Sunday sketching. For a while I have been looking for a more "common" house to sketch. The shop on the ground floor makes this an interesting thing to draw- unfortunately I messed up both perspective and the size of the middle section windows - Well it was fun to sketch

Dagliglivets oase or something like: daily life oasis

I have passed by the fastfood joint a billion times, and always thought it could be a good sketch, so today I decided to have a go at it. I've never eaten there, but now I have sketched it

Ålholmplads

Spring has finally arrived in Copenhagen, so i have left my drawing tables and ventured out in the lovely weather. This is from Ålholmplads, a couple of years ago I sketched the restaurant next to this kebab shop. And apparently half the sign is missing, because as I was packing my gear, the owner came out with more letters to put up

Tivoli

The sun is out, temperatures are up and I've been out with my sketchbook - oh, it feels good. This is the back side of Tivoli. For this sketch I tried Noodlers Lexington Grey ink in my fountain pen. It's a bit strange drawing with grey ink, something I have to get used to, but I do like the result
