Just finished a children’s illustration and thought i would post it here for you all to see

It’s for a colouring page, for kids to colour in  for the Business Mums Network. I worked with original handdrawn sketches on this one, and then scanned them in and worked on them digitally.I found the process worked very well, it was sort of experimental i played around with a few different processes before i found one that worked for me.

I am happy with the way it worked out Quite the different experience but i enjoyed it thoroughly

Over the past few weeks i have also started something new, My Sketchbook 2009, which resides in a Moleskin book given to me by a dear friend i have been too scared to actually draw in

Here is my first sketch from this book. The inspiration was from some pears that i bought at the shops, i actually meant to do a coloured pencil piece with them as they had wonderful colours but i just didn’t get to it in time.

I hope to do many more of these in the future as drawings and prints to sell as well as in my sketchbook. They are great fun to do but take a while !!
