Partial abandonment of this blog

Back in the days when I started this blog, blogs were very much a thing. Since then, social media have taken over a lot of the role blogs used to play. This happened with me, anyway: I nowadays post my artwork on several social media platforms, and I don't seem to have much else to say anyway. 

I have therefore decided it's hardly worth posting all the stuff here as well. I will continue to update the Books Page whenever new books become available, but will probably no longer come post every little thing I draw or paint here. My social media and other links can be found on my Link Tree, but I'll also put them below.

Social media:

I post sketches and stuff on Instagram I actually abandoned the account for a while there, but then returned.

I have a Facebook Page, where I post new artwork for sale, as well as new books. 

I also have a Personal Facebook Page where I post personal stuff. I readily accept friend requests, but note that the moment you message me to try selling me stuff, or start telling me about NFTs or cryptocurrency, you get blocked.

Commercial:

Every now and then I upload something that might make for a nice print to Redbubble.

I sell originals from my Yaga Shop. 

Other:

I upload photos and artwork to my galleries on DeviantArt. Incidentally, I do not mind if artists use any of my photos for reference.

In summary, I have not completely abandoned this blog, and it will remain online, but do not expect lively traffic here.

Lone tree near Langverwacht

 Pen and watercolor on paper, 10 x 15 cm:

I haven't done much in watercolor, so it's a medium with which I'm a bit out of my depth. But it's also a medium that can give lovely results, so I'm considering practicing a bit, to see where, if anywhere, that will get me...

In the meantime, I also get up to all manner of other stuff on the web.
