Eva-Lena Art & Illustration

Drawing, painting, sketching. Deciding it is finished. Not being precious about it. Oh, and making people happy – that’s the best thing I could wish for with my art.

I love to make watercolour and ink illustrations in a loose style. A fountain pen (not too expensive, or I wouldn’t dare to use it with a pigment ink), high-quality watercolours, and a nice and thick paper, and I’m good to go. However, I also like to experiment with other media, such as crayons, pastels and colour pencils.

For some reason, I paint a lot of teapots. They seem to be my brain’s best default idea of something to paint!

Landscapes too. My favourite view is a green and blue view from where I grew up, which I’m forever trying to recreate somehow.
