#36daysoftype

#36daysoftype 2017 was fun! It’s a design / illustration challenge, where there’s a letter or a number for every day during the challenge period. Here are my letters. Diamonds, girls, french-kissing snakes, legs, wheel of fortune, mountains to climb, moon, cartwheels, kangaroos.. And even one of my favorite song of all times, “Twilight driving” (check it out!).ABCDEFG Pirita

And my numbers:

And there’s always those you love more than others…

Color Palettes

It’s a bit of a no-brainer for an illustrator to say this… but I love colours. LUV. They’re probably a big reason why I ever chose to become an illustrator in the first place.

And I love working with them. In a wider sense they’re attached to everything – events, feelings and phases in my life.

Recently I’ve started to make color palettes from each week. I select colors from illustration assignments I’ve been working on, and then think of the colors my mind has been most busy on. I don’t pay attention all that much to shapes and elements – even though I pick out something new every time.

Here’s my autumn so far:
