I was asked to do this piece for a birthday present. 2 beloved pets in a comical way. 

Bee Yourself

Another Scrap post for Digital Whisper

First Mate

I love this. It made me smile the whole time I was doing this piece. The thought of the  little boy being a pirate, with his faithful dog as first mate.  Do kids still think this way when playing or is it all Playstation and Facebook?

Bitter Sweet

Ok, So somebody asked me the other week if I did portraits? Hummmmm, I hadn't done a portrait, as such,  since my O'levels.... Well not unless it had wings on it, as everything I do seems to ping back to children's illustrations. Yeh I know, I'm just a big kids at heart!  I think this is about as serious as it gets for me. But who knows.   Anyway. I've been star struck recently by 'Art & Ghosts' - http://artandghosts.squarespace.com/

The work is just out of this world. And I've been starring in wonder for months now. Asking myself how its achieved. I owe my inspiration to A&G for this one.   x enjoy x

Time Bug

 

This is the most time I've ever spent on a Digital painting. But to be fair its exactly the same amount of time I would have spent if I were doing this piece the old fashioned way...  I am a true Digital Art Convert. The beauty of this is there is no mess, no packing away, no worries one of the kids might throw Coke over it accidentally. And once you've done it, it can be filed away, printed off, used as a screen saver put on a tea towel or even a mug should you so desire!  I am converted.

A Challenge on last weeks Digital Whisper took us back to painting... So I thought why not! Lets go back to basics in the Digital world.  And this one has been inspired by something I 'crafted' and posted on the other blog. Some Tutu's crafted from paperstock, ribbon and generally anything laying around. I commented that It'd be great to find some Fae to fit into the tutu's, so  here she is....  Time Bug.  Shes the one that despite me spending loads of cash on getting our  collection of Antique clocks serviced they insist on stopping the day after they have been returned home and then stopping and starting and random....  Time Bug. x
