Art: Payne’s Grey Dragon
For my son’s 16th birthday, I painted a dragon. Adrien wanted me to paint some version of Toothless and Light Fury from the movie series “How to train your dragon”. I had intended to paint them in gouache. But in the meantime I discovered the Sennelier Payne’s Grey ink brushpen.
This is after a digital artwork sketch by William Morris-Julien who is creative director in the video games industry.
Resulting painting framed in white wood. The picture mount hides the birthday greeting.
He liked it well enough.
Art: Red boat on misty lake
I discovered the Sennelier brushpen in Payne’s Grey and was enamoured with its indigo blue.
I used it with a water brushpen on thick watercolour paper. For the boat I used the Geranium Red Kuretake brushpen. And I used my Pentel pocket brushpen in grey for the pier.

Dream: V Wing AirPods
In a dream that felt particularly real, a kind and good looking stranger arranged my Apple AirPods into a V Wing…
I had no idea this was even possible! I was in a diner in a busy and dark megalopolis, minding my own business, when this guy eyes me, leaves his young companion at adjacent table, sets himself in front of me and deftly handled my Apple AirPods and case. His fingers and hands were like those of Rubik’s cubes players. The next moment he set on the table what looked like a small V Wing Star Wars spaceship. He said, “there, now you have your own portable loudspeakers” and left.
I looked at the beautiful object in front of me, and thought I needed a second pair to use in-ear, because I would never be able to arrange them this way again.
I also tried to think of what to tell the stranger to hold on to him longer, but nothing came to mind and I was disappointed. That’s it.
I woke up wondering just how loud the small device would be 🙂
