Wilderness


For the Illustration Friday prompt, WILDERNESS. Those birds look pretty WILD, don't they?

Draw-This Prompts!

I have recently joined another drawing group, called Draw-This. I find that by following prompts, I can try things that I normally would never attempt. I did these two prompts this evening - using copic markers and a fineliner pen.

I was asked to make this fridge magnet for someone who had seen an earlier one I had done, and had loved the quote. So here it is...I hope she likes it!

Illustration Friday Post: Renewal

One of my new year's resolutions (I
have many) is to do as many of the
Illustration Friday prompts as I can.
I love the challenge of them!

This week's challenge is "RENEWAL",
and when I saw the word, I instantly thought of butterflies. I also happened to have this lovely vintage image in my collection of favourite images, and it lent itself perfectly to the theme.

All I needed was a quote, so when I found this quotation from the actress Lynn Redgrave, I knew that I was ready to go!

Well, the craziness and wonder that is everything Christmas has come and gone for another year. I have been having a wonderful holiday season, spending some much anticipated days off of work working in my art journal, catching up on movie watching and book reading, and enjoying friends and family. I hope to be posting art on a more regular basis once again now that the new year has begun, so stay tuned! In the meantime, here are a few ornaments that I made that now grace my Christmas tree.
