Hi! my name is Diana and you've somehow just landed on my art blog. Here I post my own scribbles, finished artworks and photos. I also sometimes share other things than my own stuff, things that inspire or resonate with me in some other way. [ more info and links at http://dianajakobsson.com ]

hey fellow Europeans (EU), just a friendly and mildly concerned reminder that in less than a month, the European elections are taking place. it's an election with a historically low turnout, but one that is just as important as any other, if not more. the composition of the EU parliament determines the political direction of the EU, and has an impact on all 27 countries through directives and regulations that get voted.

we cannot let far right extremist parties get an even bigger stronghold there than they already do. sadly, there are very significant threats of exactly that happening from many countries.

so please, if you are an EU citizen living in the EU and are of voting age, check the modalities to vote in your country of residence, and make sure to make your voice heard.

It’s finally time for #inktober and this year my drawings will be themed! Unfortunately I can’t do every day this year because I have too much work right now, but I’ll be aiming to make 3 a week. I plan to really step out of my comfort zone this time, I hope you will enjoy them. ❤

I made these inktobers into a zine a few years ago (which has been out of print since) , I've now printed new copies and they will be available online after Stockholm comic festival at the end of this month. (But feel free to DM me already now if you want to be 100% sure to get one) ps. cover looks like a hardcover book but it's printed on matte paper. Also working very hard on releasing some other stuff, let you all know more asap.

Vetted fundraiser masterpost-masterpost.

This is a collection of links to various posts concerning fundraisers I've vetted and instructions on how to submit fundraisers to me. These are primarily ones for Ghazzan families although some fundraisers for Sudanese families are also listed (I'm more familiar with my own country's politics and dialect and am more capable of vetting fundraisers for Palestinians as a result). Each post will have a time stamp indicating the latest date of update. And fundraisers will have colour-coded disclaimers according to the particularities of their case.

I know that people do not like clicking on links or navigating between posts, but please actually look through these posts and choose a fundraiser to donate to. Please.

Instructions on how to submit a fundraiser. (for those not Ghazzan) تعليمات لتقديم طلب توثيق و نشر حملات التبرعات الخاصة بالغزاويين و عائلاتهم (للغزاويين فقط) سأنشر البوست قريبا

I’m running an Introductory Animation Workshop with creative arts students this Saturday (August 20, 2016) for The School of Creative Arts Open Day at Melbourne Polytechnic’s Prahran Campus. I’ve rotoscoped and broken down some of the greatest dance gifs to their basic poses and we’re going to collaboratively design characters then MAKE THEM DANCE!!

Come down, check out the campus and say HI!

I can’t wait to see the weird animated goofs that result from this workshop, I’ll post them in a couple of days so we can all be in awe of their hilarious spontaneity! 

This was such a fun thing to make and do! YOU SHOULD MAKE ONE!!

Happy new year! As promised, a little introductory post for all the new/old followers. My name is Diana and I'm currently located in Sweden. I've been on tumblr for quite a while but I left when the "big censorship"™ happened. Then last year I got word that this place is still alive but is smaller and friendlier, so I went back and I love it here. (Fingers crossed leadership on tumblr doesnt tank this website 😰) A little about me: I'm a former illustrator, but I was never successful/productive enough to make a decent living so I went back to school to see if I could get a more stable career. I got lucky and got into uni just as the pandemic hit (when most freelancers struggled even more). As I'm studying I find it a little bit hard to find time and energy to be as creative as I'd like, but I do try to draw as much as I can. For a while I did streaming, and I hope to get back to that someday. I also do photography as a creative outlet and I have a photography tumblr : https://loveacover.tumblr.com/ There's more art coming up soon, I'm working on some larger illustrations in a sort of tarot style look (flats and lines) as well as schoolwork and more OC stuff. Be forewarned that I love experimenting with painting styles and trying out new techniques so some of my artworks can be seen as very different from one another in mood/finish. If you came for the cute only then you might be disappointed. I hope you'll stick around though! OH! and feel free to introduce yourself in the comments! I'd love to know who you are . I guess that's it for now. see u around 💕
