Oh the best part of learning certainly is when you have a break after handling an enormous pile of work and your head feels so much heavier because of all the knowledge you jammed into it. But it feels even better if you combine business with pleasure and keep on learning in your breaks.

Cause I'll also graduate in arts I just practised quick drawing in my break. Then I'll only have four and a half hours for creating a masterpiece on a certain subject and usually I paint pretty realistic, which takes far more than some hours. I wanted to practise drawing more abstractly anyway, so why not kill two birds with one stone ? (poor birds).
And here it is: My first attempt of simplifying.

What do you think? I'm hungering for tips, so let me know.

Big Mess

I always thought hiding your beautiful jewelry in boxes is like buying an impressive painting but storing it in a cupboard. However, primitively huddling it together on my dresser, like I did, didn't seem much better to me either. So I helped myself with this little DIY:

 Before

After

You'll need:

- a big mess and some free space

- some branches 

- wood paint and a paint brush

- a hammer and those curved nails (see step 2) 

Step 1

paint the branches and let them dry (you better do this outside because of the smell and to save your beautiful laminate or carpet etc.)

before nailing it on the wall, arrange it on the floor and when you found the perfect shape, check weather its workable for nailing it (you need enough points of contact between the branches and your wall). 

Step 2

Nail it! 

If you want, you can now conceal the nails and paint them, too. 

Step 3

Decorate it! 

And tadaaaaaa, instead of a huge mess or hidden jewelry, you have your own little masterpiece, like a friend of mine called it.
