Music addict.

Hiyaaa, I'm back. And here is my music post.

I have had a few interesting musical finds in the last 2 months. A few new addictions. And I am loving it. Let's get this show on the road.

Firstly, I became addicted to the album 'Vultures' by Dutch band Kensington. A great rockband with a singer who has a really nice raspy voice, which gives the music just this little extra thing. Loving that. Played the album almost non-stop. Amazing. Until one faithful sunday.
I heard a song by Panic! at the Disco in one of Dan and Phil's BBC radio1 shows and I thought 'oh that's quite nice, I should have a listen to what music they make'. So I did. And it was life changing. That's maybe a bit overreacted, but a new addiction was born. Oh my god they are amazing. How did I not find this before? I found my favorite albums are 'Too weird to live, to rare to die!' and 'Vices & Virtues'. Been listening to them a lot. Over 500 plays in less then 3 weeks. I'm proud. I am.
My third addiction has been Chef'Special. They are another Dutch band. They make really fun and funky ska-ish music. Really mellow and just fun. I already didn't dislike the music they made and when I heard they brought out a new album, I thought it would be a good idea to give 'Passing Through' a little listen. And yes. It was indeed a very good idea. Good for every moment of the day. Amazing.

So there you have a little catch-up on my music playlists lately. It's so nice to find new music and get completely addicted. I love that feeling. Almost playing nothing else, until you find something new to obsess over. But they always stay in my playlists, I can never get rid of them. Music is amazing.

Aside of music, I turned 18 last week! I kind of wanted to have my online portfolio up by that time, but there are a few things I not so certain of, just yet so just sit tight for a little longer. It is coming! I can assure you that! So keep an eye on this blog and I will tell you as soon as it's up.

I'm going to leave you with that. I hope I gave you some new interesting stuff to give a listen, if you have tips for me, please let me know! I would love to hear! I'll leave a link to the albums on spotify down here, so you can find them!

Have a nice life,
Xoxo

Lacking.

Well hello there,

I'm lacking. I know. And I'm sorry. But let me explain.

Last week I didn't do my regular Don't break the chain post. Partly because I am on internship at the moment, which means working days from 9 'till 5, but also because I was a bit reluctant to share this page with the world. I know I said I would share everything, even if I wasn't 100% happy with how it turned out, but when thinking about it, I realized I didn't really have anything new to say. I practiced shading some more. I used the same technique I used the week before, because I want to make sure I can actually do it. So putting up a DBTC post would be just the pictures. Nothing more. And I feel like I don't really need to do that. I can also just write a normal blog post, in which I also address what I did this week.
Don't worry, though, the weeks I do something new or noticeable, I will ~of course~ put it up and explain what I did and where I found the inspiration. That is what this all is about. Sharing the new things I learn. But I feel like it's unnecessary to also put up all the practicing that comes with it. So I won't. From now on.

So, this means:
No more weekly DBTC. Only when I actually have something important or interesting to tell/show you.
But, I will be writing normal blog posts. To keep you up to date on what's happening in the rest of my life.

For example, I'm now walking around with a pair of glasses on my face. This is new. And I'm loving it. Headaches have decreased and lines are actually lines now. They are completely focussed and it's amazing. So that happened.

I'm going to leave it to this. I don't want to make it too long. I just wanted to explain what was going on and tell you about the slight change I'm bringing to my blog-posting. Don't expect a DBTC post this week, either, btw. More practicing, nothing new.

So,
Have a nice life,
Xoxo
Winnie.

BTW. Expect a new musical blogpost in the ~very near~ future. I found some new things, I have some new obsessions. So look forward to that!

What is all this about? Go to this blogpost and you can read all about the project I've started for this year!
