I was sent an email from Jon Burgermans mailing list about this book and because I am always tempted to pick up my pens and start the doodle artwork again, I thought it might be worth giving this book a try. I also thought that the idea inside might help feed and inspiremy character ... Continue Reading →
Water Colours – 280717
Hello everyone. I just wanted to write a quick blog post and share a I know up card with you all. I had some miniature success over on Instagram when I shared the images in my previous post.

Finally, some finished works
As you can probably tell, I've been somewhat inspired these past few days to keep trying my hand at abstract artwork.

New paintings?
I managed to get out in the garden this morning and do some painting. It's been a fair while since I did anything creative like this, so it was good fun again. It involves a lot of water and making a mess, so the husband will probably be mortified when I tell him what I... Continue Reading →
