Be My Guest | Marlou of Hei Marlou



Hello everyone! my name is Marlou, I'm from the Netherlands and blog over at Hei Marlou. I've been reading Bianca's blog for a while now, and am really excited (and a little nervous) about guest blogging here! When choosing one of Keri Smith's 100 Ideas I decided I had to do something real creative - since Goodnight Little Spoon often makes me want to do some drawing, cutting and pasting... something I don't really do much. So, that's why I chose:

79. Find a photo. Alter it by drawing over it.



I decided to use a postcard a friend gave to me, after she found it at a flea market in France. It sadly doesn't say from which year it is, but I thought it might need a little color anyway. That's why I started drawing "friendly looking monsters", a tourist and flowers --- I guess you all understand why I don't draw that often (...) but hey, this was fun!



Thank you so much for having me, Bianca. i hope you're having a lovely holiday! :)

Love,
Marlou
