Pretty Lady

This is one of my newest mixed media ladies and I have to say I am loving her.

I don't know where she's going quite yet, I started her without a concept but I'll get there.

Rainbow Rabbit Coming Along

I roughed in where I want the main rainbow colours...

This is going to be a cool one and perfect for t-shirts and such don't you think?

Whimbley Underway

Hey guys, I started a new little character, his name is Whimbley...he's going to be a pretty cool guy.

He's a stargazer, I know that already, the rest of the story to come sooner than later hopefully!

Henrie's Line Portrait

Back in the summer I started this ink drawing of Henrie and I totally forgot to show you!

I just recently put the finishing touches on it...I'll show you soon.

Don't forget to sign up to Keep In Touch, if your not already, my next issue is going out really soon.

A Lino Of Flynn

When I say the rabbits we adopt and rescue are my main inspirations I really mean it...

There's no mistaking it, our Flynn is the model for one of my newest lino...I hope I do him justice!

Cutting Out The Colour

One of my favourite parts of making my images is the part where I releash the image from it's paper suuroundings, it's a delicate somewhat time consuming process sometimes but it's meditative too.

It goes much more smoothly when I work on a thin less textured paper which I tend to use for these butterflies because they are so small.  I always get a few colored & cut out before I get them onto their backgrounds.

Rainbow Here We Come

I am super excited about this one...

He's going to be a rainbow of colours.

Teela Watercolour

I've been working on a watercolour version of my beloved departed Teela...

Have you seen it on Instagram maybe?  If not here's a better looksee anyhow.

Colour Me Happy

I can't help but feel happy whenever I sit down with my colours...

Especially at the very beginning of a piece, when it's all going beautifully!

Loving The Lino

I've been really enjoying some printmaking lately

 

 

I started picking up this old beloved medium again back in the Fall

(here's a couple shots when I was working out in the cool air with Jaks enjoying the yard)

 

 

I think I'll be able to show you some hand-pressed prints next week...wohooo, I can't wait.

Snippets of Sketching

I've been thinking about how artists work with different ailments

& for me when migraines hit, sketching is the perfect thing for me to do.

I can do it curled up in bed, stretched out on the couch or in short snippets at the living room table...

 

 

Or whiles I keep sweet company with the buns on the floor...this recent batch is all about bunnies,

I am so excited about them (I am literally toting them around the house with me!)

but am completely stuck on what medium to tackle them in!  I am sure you'll see them soon though.

Originals

Hi Lovlies,  I hope you had a restful weekend.

We did, after a scare with our sweet honey-bee Teela but more on that later.

I think I forgot to let you guys know that this new lot of 4 originals have hit my shop.
