Life in the ditch

 

These illustrations were made for an interactive children’s game for events by Hoogheemraadschap van Delfland, Delft. Confetti Reclame was asked to make the game happen, and as a working girl for Confetti, I could make the illustrations. I’m still very grateful for the opportunity.
The game is about learning which animals and plants belong in the ditches ‘in your neighbourhood’, and which do not. The illustrations are made with felt pen and edited in photoshop. They’re printed on wood with a little hook on the top, so that the children actually could fish the bad things out of the ditch.

First you’ll see the original illustrations and at the end the game itself, with all the credits for Confetti Reclame of course.

Submission BoekieBoekie 2012-2013

Last year (end date this year) I entered the BoekieBoekie StartAward contest again. The year before I entered with 2D illustrations, you can check them again here and here.
This time I wanted to use more ‘space’. For the story of the ‘Beuk’ and the poem ‘Beginpunt’ I made a diorama and for the ‘Reus’ I made a cross-section of a hill, so that you could see the Giant underneath it. I combined the diorama pictures and the illustrations in photoshop.

Wringing a towel in Space

Woooow, I never imagined wringing a towel in space, and certainly not the effect of it!

I was searching through my holiday archive, when I found this photograph. It was made in Bruxelles across from our hotel. It’s the reflection on a window of a light-curtain from one of the bars below. Nice, ey?
