Impressions from our debut with ‚A Postcard from Impressions from our debut with ‚A Postcard from Graz’ After a brief city stroll, with lots of interesting facts and stories about the surrounding area and buildings, we settled to to sketch and get creative on our postcards. On the first photo you see Ruth from @discovergraz.at herself trying urban sketching for the first time 😁 We had such a fun time and were glad everyone enjoyed the vibe. The kids were especially creative and we loved having them! Lucky @paulundbohne were just next door were we could get our daily coffee fix 🙃 D/ Impressionen von unserem ‚A postcard from Graz‘ Debüt. Zuerst gab es einen kurzen Stadtspaziergang mit vielen interessante Fakten und Geschichten, über die uns umgebenden Gebäude und das Stadtviertel. Danach haben wir uns gemütlich zum skizzieren niedergelassen und unsere Postkartengestaltet. Am ersten Foto seht ihr Ruth von @discovergraz.at höchstpersönlich, wie sie sich das erste mal am #urbansketching versucht 😁 Wir hatten eine wunderbare Zeit und freuen uns, dass alle die Stimmung genossen haben.

Holiday feeling with this customised mug design 🇬🇷 A commissioned painting transformed into a mug design. I wanted a long continuous design for the mug so decided to frame the painting in two parts. So happy how well both turned out! The story behind the motif is that the customer owns this particular tractor ( some of you might know its a Steyr 15 ) and has been traveling with it all the way from Austria to Greece many times.* *No donkeys were harmed, this was just my imagination ✨ —————————————————————————— #artreel #artistsoninstagram #illustrator #illustrationartists #donkeys #greece #holiday #holidayfeeling #steyr15 #tractorlife #oldtimer #tractorlove #tractorclub #enamelmug #mugdesign #customdesign #häferl #vanlife #campingmug

Looking back at 5 years of @main_design swimwear 🔥 They have just taken part in #fashionrevolutionweek so it’s a perfect moment to share where it all started and how they are making a difference in the fashion world. So here’s how I got an ambassador: 2017 in Bali I stumbled across their brand and bought that first olive green surf bikini in a small shop at Jalan Pantai Berawa. I was in love and still am 🙃 A little later on I met the amazing @yvi_meier who is the co-owner of MAIN through a mutual friend and we shared nice moments and waves together in Bali 🇮🇩 Some 2 years later when I lived New Zealand, I received a message asking if I wanted to become an ambassador. Well, I did! Since then I‘m super proud to be able to represent an eco-conscious brand who cares for their workers and uses recycled fabric from recovered fishing nets helping our oceans 🌊 Thanks to everyone at @main_design for your great work and the super positive vibes I always get from you 🧡 Here‘s 5 years of snaps - the last ones being taken recently in Morocco in some pieces from the newest collection. You can see, not much has changed, the black hat is still around and so is my goofy posing 🌵 📸 @cathidrought @herrbell_tea @christinafeller3881 ——————————————————————- #sustainablefashion #sustainability #swimwear #ambassador #main #maindesign #bali #canggu #travel #surfing #surfbikini #surfwear #surf #waves #passion #alwaysonthemove #inspiration #makeachange #skating #skatergirl #surfergirl #ecofashion #slowfashion #fairfashion #austria #newzealand #reel #reelsinstagram #reeloftheday
Our last surf trip brought some thoughts up 🌊 R Our last surf trip brought some thoughts up 🌊 Read below 👇🏼 To all fellow travelers and surfers out there: I think today’s #worldearthday is a good moment to share some thoughts and hear your opinions. I find myself very often in between two realities. ‘We surfers’ claim to be so big on sustainability and yes, we do admire nature and yes, we do our little bit in every day life (avoiding single-use plastic, buying secondhand, eating local food, beach cleanups etc) But in the end just one return flight to our next surf destination produces so much CO2 that we hardly count into the sustainable category anymore. I’ve realised that a long time ago but still haven’t found a solution. Here’s the situation and I’m sure everyone of you has a personal version of this. My home country doesn’t have an ocean and even river waves require a bit of traveling (that will hopefully change in near future (@wellefueralle 😉). Yes I could live in a place with waves (and will again 🌊) but let’s be honest: Even the lucky one’s with a wave right in front of their house enjoy a surf trip to an exotic destination once in a while. So I’m thinking how do we justify that? In the end surfing is just a hobby right? I know, many will say they ‚need’ it to be happy or that it is a ‚lifestyle‘ and I like to tell myself the same. But is this really an excuse? What other arguments are there. How can we compare it to other hobbies and sports. And does it make it better to compare it after all, the emissions are all the same… What comes to your mind reading this? Have you ever thought about this and what’s your opinion? 🌏💙 I’m curious what you guys think 🤓 Also I want to say again: I‘m not saying any of this above makes you a terrible person, I also still do it but I do question it! —————————————————————— #worldearthday #worldearthday2022 #travel #surfing #surftrip #sustainability #climate #climatechange #ocean #savetheocean #ourplanet #saveourplanet #future #nextgeneration #alwaysonthemove #surf #fridaysforfuture #architectsforfuture #fridays4future #reeloftheday

This was the view from our hostel balcony, in the morning we could see the fishermen come back in and sell the fish directly out of their blue boats. Life and architecture in Morocco is so different to ours in Austria and it was such a pleasure to observe and sketch it! Would you want to travel to Morcco? 🐪 ☀️ Also very excited I got started with the ‘endless paper’ sketchbook from @fabriano1264 It folds like a harmonica so I can add a different place every other page and it will end up being a very looong panorama sketch.

April is a little bit like the „real“ start of April is a little bit like the „real“ start of the year for me. 🌼 It is this time of the year in Austria where everything starts to awake. Flowers come out, trees grow buds which quickly turn into leaves, days are longer and the sun warmer. Maybe it’s also because April is the month I‘m born in - I will always associate apple and pear tree blossom with my birthday. Either way the creative spirit is finally coming back from hibernation and drawing an apple tree at @apflbutzn seems like the perfect start to this creative year ☀️ Simply put: It’s time for new projects!

✖️ Focus. 100% Lots of people think I’m sad ✖️ Focus. 100% Lots of people think I’m sad, angry or just not in a good mood when I’m working. Truth is: This is my face when I concentrate = when I’m busy creating 🤓 I really try to put my phone away and have a sharp mind when drawing or painting. Only then I can get in this beautiful work flow that is so rewarding at the end of the day. Let me know if you know that feeling too ✨ This is the last post of the studio series for now. I hope this has given you a little insight in my creative work process. Thank you @johnnywhatphotography for the photos and inspiration for this little series ✌🏼 ——————————————————— #blackandwhite #blackandwhitephotography #portrait #artist #travelartist #illustrator #illustrationartist #selfemployed #architecturalillustration #watercolourartist #studiofeature #focus #artgraz #austria #art #austrianartist #childrenbookillustrator #alwaysonthemove
