Another shipping note

The book is ready for Australia. I would like to apologise to Lene and to the probably only person following this blog by now. Sorry. I should have done a lot more work and a hell of a lot sooner. I am sorry, it will not happen again.
On a lighter note, Lene and I have talked about the possibility of selling the book through ebay once we are done filling the pages. We would like to hear if that would be something any one you would be interested in. Owning the original and first 8861miles sketchbook. with smells, stains, and loads of original art. Let us know, okay. (Peter)

Another brushpen drawing, this time without a pencil sketch to follow. some parts work, some don't. The lines turn rather grayish on the moleskinpaper... it actually looks better on cheap paper. expensive crap. (Peter)

Drawings on scrap

Those of you who have been following this blog for a while, might be interested in knowing that I have published a book through cafepress, it's called "Drawings on scrap", and it's 144 pages of doodles, drawings, studies, sketches and weird marks, all done on scrap paper. If you visit my personal blog: http://peter-hermann.blogspot.com, you can read reviews of the book by such incredible talented people as Guy Davis, Alec Stevens, John Cuneo, Sune Ehlers, Martin Madsen and 8861miles own outback artist Lene.
