Met trots presenteer ik dit mooie boek aan jullie over de wilde bijen! Er staan prachtige illustraties in van 40 illustratoren die samen hebben gewerkt aan het tot stand komen van dit boek. Ik mocht een illustratie maken over het wilde bijenparadijs en hoe je je tuin bij-vriendelijk kan maken. (Wilde) bijen zijn ontzettend belangrijk voor de natuur en het ecosysteem en alle leven op aarde. In dit boek kun je er alles over lezen, leren en bekijken. Een deel van de opbrengst komt ten goede aan de bijenstichting. Het is een boek voor kinderen van ongeveer 8-12 jaar en is daarnaast ook heel leuk een leerzaam voor volwassenen!
Het boek is te bestellen via de KNVV: knnvuitgeverij.nl/artikel/wilde-bijen-parade.html

(Wild) bees are extremely important for nature and the ecosystem and all life on earth. In this book you can read, learn and view everything about it. Part of the profits will go to the bee foundation. It is a book for children of about 8-12 years old and is also very fun and educational for adults!

A small brown rat

2/13/2020

 
The rat is probably not as bad as we often times perceive him to be.
Illustrations of the brown rat for an article on Vers Beton for the series 'Andere Rotterdammers' (the other habitants of Rotterdam). I drew these rats as sweet little guys, I can't help it. While looking at reference photo's for these illustrations I looked into their shimmering brown eyes and I knew they are not too bad at all :).

Since november of last year, while going through my large box of drawings that I made the past 8 years, I felt it was the time to reopen my Etsy shop. I openend it in 2o13 and had it as a place for people to see and possibly purchase some of my work on postcards and prints. At that time, I felt it was a lot of work to keep it going, writing listings, taking photo's of my products and also to promote it. The marketing part of my art has not really been my favourite thing to do. And I had my Etsy shop closed for several years. But, while looking at the many things I made over the past years, I felt I wanted to make my work more available for people again, to enjoy it. Making people happy with what I make is one of the things I love most of being an artist. So I reopened my Etsy shop and started working on taking photo's of some original pieces, going trough my stock of postcards that I still had and also started thinking about, and working on new products. Feel free to take a look around in my brand new Etsy shop :)  and send me a message at eslankhaar@gmail.com if you have questions, remarks, or just want to say hi :)!

Peregrine Falcon

1/15/2020

 
I made this illustration of the peregrine falcon voor online magazine Vers Beton. This bird didn't live in the Netherlands before the end of the nineties of last century. Since about twenty years ago, conditions changed and right now, he even feels at home in the city Rotterdam.
