Winter go

Between Christmas and New year's Eve I went to Winter go. A time to play lots of go (a wonderful thinking game), play other games, make forest walks, warm up by the fire place and have great conversations till deep in the night.

I also drew a lot of pictures in between. Here are a few:

Marieke, the woman from whom I borrowed the lovely indian ink pen that I used to make these pictures. Too bad I can't show her lovely blue tufts of hair.

Roel reading a newspaper near the fireplace. I love the candeleer on the mantel, though the fox turned out horribly wrong *is ashamed*.

Pepijn and Willem playing a game of go (near the fireplace as well). Pepijn is bending forwards and is looking really serious. I really wish I could have had the time to make a proper portrait of him.

After being in the background for so many times the fireplace dragon demanded to be in the foreground and I happily obliged.
