A wee illustration by Tineke Meirink using a found beach pebble as a starting point. It is lovely to let nature and imagination take you to meet some new characters.

Tineke Meirink's illustrations for Ditcher magazing are wonderful, here are some of the illustrations concocted from  found things and found thoughts to illustrate 70 poems by almost 30 poets.

Here is Tineke's distressed bird poo person called 'Oh no!'

Tineke Meirink II

I start the week in bad taste, maybe, depending on how sensitive you are.
Illustrator Tineke Meirink posted something that I had wanted to do for years, a wee feature of 'Shitty Artists'.
For years, walking around creative, surreal; landings/ prints? of bird poo have caught my attention and I have thought of drawing 'out' what I see with chalk, however Photoshop attracts less attention and disgust.
Tineke sees things everywhere, so it was no surprise really that she had seen things in the poo as well, in fact it was affirming and encouraging.
What ever your thoughts, after today you may not see these innocent deposits in quite the same way.

Anja Brunt has some new people to introduce to you, her lovely paint brush people, and because of these new friends I discovered the work of her friend Tineke Meirink in the post below.

I am sure that this is the first post, of many, about Dutch artist and illustrator Tineke Meirink, I adore these works on wood, the nail beaked birds are especially wonderful.
