Nonsense, nonsense, nonsense!

Utter nonsense, but nice to do.
Title inspired by the lovely Adam and Joe.
Great week so far, hope the same goes for everyone else.
Met a lady in the launderette last week, got chatting, chatted for ages.
Today met up for a coffee, and she is totally superb (and sane, always helps!)
Unexpected and extremely pleasant.
Her and her partner do this, good for them!

More Florals.

Another quick sketch to get the creative juices flowing!
Nice to be using more colour than normal.
I might even treat myself to some new pens.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Making It Up

Been doing a bit of doodling and flower drawing.
Quite liking the results of not thinking too much.
I'm trying to learn how to relax!!
This has not been a natural predisposition, but I'm getting there.
It feels nice. x

This floral illustration can be found at my Etsy Shop : )

 

More Painting *unfinished*

Hello.
Hope you all have had a fab weekend.
Went to the opening of the Holborne Museum on Friday.
Much fun and drinks, as well as seeing the legend, Peter Blake.
Saturday, nursing a sore head and meet up with buddies.
Today, 7am run, commission started and nearly finished and now updating the blog.
Next, maybe back into bed with a book.
Lovely.
Here's a painting I have started, yet to finish.

 

How ya like me now?

I've been doing a bit of painting the last few days.
Not sure what I'm doing but enjoying the process and results.
Doing a bit of floral painting too, it's been a while since I've done that!
Loving the colours.
Have a good one. x

Modern Dog

On Friday I had confirmation that I will be featured in the summer issue of Modern Dog Magazine!
Not sure what this will bring my way yet, but it's all good.
Always nice to be appreciated for what you do.

And I received this "As Seen In" badge so thought I'd share with you all.

Here it is.

Change is as good as a rest.

So this is the quick painting I did the other day.
Nice to use another medium but also for another subject matter.
Made me look at all the kitsch objects I own too and how I have neglected them as inspiration for a while!
So here is the painting.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Inspired by....

The other day on the way back from the car boot I had the pleasure of meeting a beautiful feline.
I acted like a mad cat woman for a bit, and thoroughly enjoyed the attention he/she was giving me.
Such a fabulous thing.
It inspired me to come home and draw a cat.
This later led on to doing a painting.
That will follow.

Claire and I.

So me and lovely Claire Loder are having a show in November.
it's going to be at the Showcase in Clerkenwell.
It's called The Making Of Us.

The other week we had a drawing session which was tons of fun.
Made me feel like a student again, never a bad thing!

So this is us with our first lot of drawings.
