Hi everyone,

It's been a while since my last post, huh? I never intended for a hiatus this long, it happened mostly due to a combo of work life and a loss of passion… Over the last year I haven't been able to feel the same excitement about Eurovision as I once did, and I think many feel the same. This year's show only left me feeling marginally better than last year's, in some ways worse actually (though Switzerland did a terrific job as a host I think).

I am going to continue this project soon however, trying to focus on what made me love Eurovision in the first place. Idk what my schedule will be, but expect a continuation of 1994 shortly!

Also, I think I will no longer be displaying the country flag icon with every post, instead sticking to just song title and artist. I will still be tagging the relevant country ofc, I just feel like it distracts from the main focus, which is the artists/music regardless of what country they represented.

I hope you guys are well and that some of you can still find some love for Eurovision despite all that happened the past couple years… See you soon! :)

Yes, an extra post this week. There were many incredible performances this year, but this one moved me the most...

I should have been drawing the last 1993 contestant today, but instead I decided to sketch some of this year's artists.

It pains me that this Eurovision will forever be remembered in a negative light. Despite all of the talented artists this year, the wonderful hosts and production, it is indeed very hard to stay positive. I wished that the contest would live up to its 'United by music' slogan. Without exaggeration, Eurovision has always been my favorite time of the year... But not this year.

I am Dutch, so I guess I will not be able to vote tonight. Regardless I hope we can show support for the artists tonight.

Because it has always been the artists that have made Eurovision into the wonderful show that it is. Not the EBU.
