As I mentioned before I meet regularly with some friends from the Big Bug Collection to make awesome art together. Lately we have been inviting a lot of other creative people to join in the fun. After a relaxed meal in the garden, we decided to doodle some more on the inside of my friend’s house (same house where I made my rainbow zebra unicorn painting on the wall).
I like the picture of three of us sitting on the floor. Not so much because it is that aesthetically pleasing (never mind the mess and bad light conditions), but moreover because it illustrates so well the spirit of our evenings together. One guy is making a drawing on the lid of the trashcan, while another one is sketching up some ideas for an illustration on the door, while I just got started on a floor painting.
Somehow it is always extra fun to draw on things you are normally not allowed to draw on. Like walls and floors and doors and objects around the house. The great thing of being a grown up is being able to throw out useless rules that keep you inside a box (although sorry mom for drawing on the couch as a toddler, I like to think it was my artistic expression rather than my anger :p)
What I show here is the result of one evening; I am nowhere near finished. But I think it’s a nice start :)

Thank you! I was thinking first in using many more colours (you can still see a hint of dark blue and yellow paint in the pictures) but I like keeping the colours a bit more simple. I tend to use many bright colours normally, sometimes less is more I guess ;)

It’s a fantastic start! I love it as it is already but am super anxious to see where you go with it : ] Awesome work!

Yeah me too! Right now it can be hid under a giant rug. I was thinking of fitting it precisely underneath, so it can be a kind of secret floor painting in the winter haha

This is clearly going to be gorgeous when it’s finished! I wish I could get away with doodling on my rented accommodation walls and floors! =)

Well, this is also a rented house, but the good thing is that it will be torn down in 2 years or something, so it doesn’t really matter that much anymore what is done with the place, that brings a lot of creative freedom ;)

That is a good start indeed.
I am a theatre maker and i mostly work with a group of people. I have just started doing a piece on my own, and i have to say,it is much more fun doing it with like minded people than on your own.
Keep creating, your stuff looks really good.

That is so awesome! And you are right, it is more fun to make things together. Technically everyone was working on their own that night, but still simply having other people around already is more fun!

This is gorgeous! I love the evenings that result from a group of like-minded friends just getting together and doing what they do. Can’t wait to see it finished!

Beautiful :) Such a brilliant idea. And even nicer for being a group project!
