Sorry that this scanned in so poorly - I need to figure out a way to scan or photograph watercolour paper cause of how it wrinkles and cockles it doesn't seem to flatten very well on the scanner bed. Maybe if I tried ironing it between some cloth to get it to flatten better. If... Continue Reading →
Just a simple one to share today! It was nice to be able to share something and get back on track with things - not that I've gone far wrong in my previous uploads - but it always feels good to share something that I feel good about with everyone. I feel like I am... Continue Reading →
I've been working on a 'pattern book' recently, just a few images repeating different ideas and concepts of the same thing. As a way to break out of the repetition - which I can feel being an issue with my art - a bit and expand on my already existing list of skills. My son... Continue Reading →
I greatly enjoy doing these collaborations with my son (as does he - he always seems really happy to see them) they add an element to my artwork that I'd never have found on my own. Their vibrancy is second to none and use colour combinations I'd never have thought of myself! This is the... Continue Reading →
I stumbled across this idea quite by accident! I wandered into the studio to pick up my Watercolour backgrounds and saw a big pile of papers that my three year old son had painted on a while ago. I had the flash thought of 'Wouldn't it be great if I did some doodles over his... Continue Reading →

I'm keen on trying new ways of getting colours into my doodles and I thought it would be interesting to try a bit of mixed media. I've chosen a couple of different colour palettes -...

I wanted to add a different doodle to my Tip Jar page to that was the main focus of today's doodles. I just wanted something simple that showed off my artwork a bit more in depth than just a little picture of Dinochum. These were a lot of fun to do (Having said that I... Continue Reading →
Another artwork to share with you all today - pretty similar to my last piece so I hope that you like them as I think I'll be doing a few like this - even if it's not the final, refined style that I end up with, I certainly feel like it is a step in... Continue Reading →
This feels more like where I'd like to be! I can't express how happy I am to have been able to achieve this, it feels so much more 'me' than what I'd been sharing previously! I feel like this is my 'voice' this is art that is completely unique to me and I am so... Continue Reading →
