Delicious Dudes Quartets – Week two: Oliver Jeffers

Yay! It’s already the second week of the Delicious Dudes Quartets! My head’s spinning by now, watching all these lovely men arriving on my twitter timeline! ;)

We’ve even got other illustrators joining us in the fun!

 

After some practice drawing Luke Wilson, this week I went all out on my biggest moustache infatuation ever: Oliver Jeffers.

I have got a HUGE crush on Mr Oliver ever since I saw this interview on Kitty Kilian‘s blog (red moustache alert!)…

About this series:

Together with BeckaKatrionaMarloesYinaTinekeMiriamMinkeNancyIna and, last but not least, Nelleke, I entered a fun project on Twitter, hashtagged #DD #quartets.

The goal of the game is to collect as many quartets (a quartet is a set of four cards) as possible. Each card indicates to what set it belongs.
All the illustrators have a different theme. My theme is “Movember Moustaches”. Each illustrator will post an illustration a week. By the end of the month each set is complete.
With the other sets you can play the game!

We will be posting Delicious Dudes every Friday in November.

Delicious Dudes Quartets – Week one: Luke Wilson

If you’re not on twitter yet, do it now!

Together with Becka, Katriona, Marloes, YinaTineke, Miriam, Minke, NancyIna and, last but not least, Nelleke, I entered a fun project, hashtagged #DD #quartets.

Can you guess what it is?

 

Tatatataaaa: a Delicious Dudes quartets! (jummy! ;))

 

We got this idea when some of us were discussing jummy men on twitter and Philomeen shouted out “it looks like y’all are playing quartets here!”. It started out as a joke, but then turned into a serious, but still loads of fun, project with other illustrators joining in.

 

Check it out! We will be posting Delicious Dudes every Friday in November.

(Quartets is a Dutch game by origin (they might play it in Germany too). It’s mostly played by kids. In Dutch stores you can find a lot of different themes to quartets. Like a ‘Miffy’ quartet, an animal quartet and so one. You can find more information on how the game is played here.

Exhibition: Fred & Guus Pop Up Gallery coming up!

My favourite art business in Utrecht is opening up shop!

 

Fred&Guus is dedicated to exhibiting and selling art from Utrecht. Especially/ also making way for the artist with a psychiatric background. As someone who has worked in psychiatry for almost a decade of course this speaks to me very loudly!

 

They’ve asked me to join in on their shop adventure, selling my graphical prints: the not-so-perfect-people prints and Mr Robot in their “Pop Up Gallery” (“pop” = Dutch for doll, hence the cool flyer ;)).
