My name is Maxwell Tilse. An Australian illustrator now living in London. I'm currently backpacking and keeping a comic diary of my travels.

On my current trip I've mostly done quick pencil sketches outside. Then, I'll find a warm cozy place to finish the drawing with a hot meal and a cold beer. Here are a few of my latest postcard sketches

This one amazed me the most. It showcases all the geometrical lines. I loved it not colored in.

Great line work, did you make all of the longer lines by hand?

All of these are amazing. I think i like the ones where you draw a few people in the best. These are so much better than just taking a picture.

    As an amateur artist drawing my whole life and I still struggle with drawing architecture, this is witchcraft to me lmao!

    The cards are gorgeous. You should make postcards and sell them. I would be interested to buy some myself. :)

    You framed it! I think it's stunning, the way you chose to only color in the farthest building.

    Great pic...I loved it there when I visited! However, I think the proper name is Cesky Krumlov.

    You are absolutely right, Amy. The proper name is Český Krumlov (Czech Krumlov). There's also Moravský Krumlov (Moravian Krumlov) here in Czech republic.

    The name of the city is Český Krumlov, using Crumlaw is rather disrespectful. Thank you.

    It's an artists perspective, artists draw it as they see it, not how you want to view it.
