Today I got this insight how important it is to say no. If you dare to show others where your boundaries are, and not to be so pleasing all the times it will also influence your artwork. Sometimes we try to hard to make it nice, tasty and neat. Lisen’t to this video while I’am creating my own work, and get inspired….have a nice day:-)

Marie J.Engelsvold. “being raw” 42 x 21 cm. 2019.

I’am now offering some free material for you to start your own drawing praxis.

Because this drawing praxis you are embarking on, it’s not just about making some pretty artworks. It’s about you expressing you. It’s about you being honest, and being raw. As a side effect you will certainly find your own very unique signature. Because nobody is exactly like you, and thats your strength. But to come into that kind of honesty, that kind of deep lisentning to yourself, you have to unlearn what other people have told you about you, and about your creativity. So you have to start fresh. You have to start from a zero point. So sign up now :-)
