work in progress

I am having a very arty long weekend. This is one of the pictures I have been working on.

Its all drawn up, tomorrow I will start adding colour.

 

 

                          And hear is an older piece from last year that I just added to the gallery. 

Its done with watercolour and ink on canvas paper. I used a metal ink quill and it made wonderful soft scratching noises while I was drawing and felt very old worldly. I'm quite fond of some of the effects in this one.

mushroom faerie.

Just finished. A small study of a mushroom faerie.

This is done with watercolour, coloured pencil and pen.

moss and trees.

Would you just look at all this lovely moss. I can just smell the green.

Inspiration

whew, I've been having real art attacks lately. I sit down for a quick sketch and don't end up looking up from the page until three hours later. The wonderful goddess of inspiration is definitely gracing me with her presence at the moment I just hope she brings along her good friend the goddess of divine skill so that some of these many paintings actually turn out good

Amongst other things I did this little drawing of a friends daughter she is very pretty and cute so naturaly the picture is very cutey too. I may add some colour or shade it out more, well see.

trees like company.

Another little water colour completed. I had this one siting around half finished for ages not knowing what it needed the pine tree wasn't working and it was to somehow laking. Then i decided to put the background trees in and the pine tree obviously glad of the company worked itself out just like that.
