Drawing for illustrating the passage about “Denmarks Lost”

[Colin Alexander777]

From thumbnail sketches to (eventually) a finished painting, here’s some insight into my process lately.

Your work has been a huge inspiration to me lately!
Thank you for sharing it here.

I have been meaning to get to this thread. Truly amazing work. The OL stokes my imagination so deeply. I find it interesting that you (and also Kraftr) seem to conjure up the same visual language that I also think up in my head - it is as if you are tapping into blood memory to procure the aesthetic. Art is going to be vital for the Oera Linda's future, aesthetics are everything. Perhaps in the future we may see an illustrated edition.

Thanks for that! Colin is thinking of scenes of parts of the text I couldn't so far. impressed technically too, I was making jokes to myself to cope 'Well maybe I should start writing a book about my struggle then…'
jk- I have a lot on my plate at the moment, i will continue once i find the inspiration and focus.

thank you so much Jan and Er Aldaric. Seeing Kraftrs evocative sketches inspired me to try my hand at illustrating a few scenes. This book, Jan and everyone else’s research on here, has reinvigorated my art practise!- now I’ve got it into my head I have to do some large history paintings based on the OLB

“Art is going to be vital for the Oera Linda's future, aesthetics are everything.“ I love that, well put. That has occurred to me also but I couldn’t formulate it quite.

This (or the new) forum needs the possibility to add hearts and thumbs. It's exciting to see your art devellop, Colin.
Thank you for taking the effort to share it with us.
