Drinking Tea

I say tea... but really I like to believe it's gin ;)

Roaring 20's

I am pleased to announce that I am now a member of 'Girls Drawing Girls'! If you haven't heard of them before, they are a fantastic group of female artists who create great work that can be found at the places below:

I'm very pleased to have been accepted among their ranks. This is the first weekly topic I've been able to get involved with - 'Roaring 20's'. I purposely stayed away from pure black and white. There was a lot of back and forth with the saturation settings but I'm quite happy with the final result. 

There has been a distinct lack of updates so far this year, that has unfortunately been due to a month long bout of sickness and then a big uptake in freelance work. However I have a brief respite and I plan on making the most of it!

Bowling Couple

These two were part of a painting that, unfortunately, just wasn't working. I got to the point where I felt it was better to just scrap it and start over. I quite liked the characters though, hopefully they'll be developed and seen again.
