We answer a few questions and invite some other creative friends to do the same.<br />
Here's Nini"s <a href="http://madebynini.blogspot.nl/2014/07/artists-around-world-blog-hop.html" target="_blank">blogpost</a>. Take a look at her blog, she makes geougeous things; all sorts of things: she sews, draws, glues, paints….she does it all :-D. And she CAN do it all :-). Wish I was that handy with a needle for example ;-).<br />
<br />
O.k., here are the Q&A's:<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US">1. Why do I do what I do?</span></div>
<div>
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span lang="EN-US">I've just always LOVED drawing ever since I was little. A few years ago I suddenly had the time to spend more time at it again and I rediscovered my love for it and couldn't stop doing it. It developed into a wish to become an illustrator. And it's getting better and better and gradually my wish is coming true :-).</span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">2. How does my work differ from others of its genre?</span></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm not sure of this….I know I like to draw and illustrate many many many different things and styles….</div>
<div>

<div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<span lang="EN-US">3. How does my creative process work?</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<span lang="EN-US"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span lang="EN-US">Well…hm…Usually something catches my attention, something I see, hear, experience, dream about etc. Then I feel a spark of inspiration and start investigating. I google the subject a bit, this usually gives me more ideas and inspiration and then I write a few words down, sometimes make a very rough sketch and then just start! I start to draw and often it happens that along the way the drawing or work turns into something unexpected or details get added I wouldn't have thought of in front. Then when the work is finished it sometimes needs a little tweaking in photoshop and that's it!! I work quite intuitively I suppose.</span></div>

She's a very lovely, open, beautiful, funny and sensitive person.<br />

Ever since I was a kid I've loved animals and especially horses and I was very happy when I met Nancy and her sweet horse named Theo. The first time I met him he was more interested in his green grass than he was to meet me :-), but the second time around he allowed me to cuddle him for a long time in his stable.<br />
A little while ago Nancy asked me to make a little book especially for her. This is the book I made. She gave me a few words/themes that meant something to her: Earth, Love and Tree.<br />
It's an accordeon-folded little book on thick watercolourpaper.<br />

This part of the lyrics suddenly made me see a clear image in my imagination;</div>

<div>
'they took all the trees and put them in a tree-museum</div>

Have been practicing some hand-lettering. This has been something I've been wanting to get better at for a long time. I like the illustrated quotes I see around very much. And now, finally, I'm getting a little better at it and I'm actually liking some of the things I've made.<br />

It's nice to go through 'old' books though. And rediscover drawings. How about my little 'Hugo' character who found a baby-rabbit :-)? I drew him in January last year.<br />

My website is work in progress. The past week I've been working on presenting my portfolio in an origanized and categorized way. My portfolio-page you can see overhere :<a href="http://www.estherlankhaar.com/portfolio.html" target="_blank">http://www.estherlankhaar.com/portfolio.html</a> and I also added seperate pages for my sketchbookwork and my bookillustrations.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Come take a peek if you like!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today I drew this. I was daydreaming about an antique French bathtub and I just started drawing one. Before I knew it, a cup of tea, a book and a picture of a fox were added....and ofcourse towels, a sponge, soap....slippers....a flower.....Everything one needs in a bathroom ;-)....</div>
