'Family portrait'

Inspired by a 'Laurel Burch' ATC swap I´m doing on Illustated ATCs , this is done in watercoloours and my new Stylefile markers (ooooh - they ARE nice)  30 x 40cm

For a special friend

For a very special friend in Namibia on her 40th birthday.

New in my sketchbook....

Wow - I haven't blogged for ages - been working on carnival and ATCs for trades I'd (overly-enthusiastically) organised.  I've got about 10 more ATCs to do and then I'm taking a little break until I get back from South Africa in January.  Tried grouping these, but it didn't work out - so here they are in a long column

ATCs #60 - #68

Watercolour spirals

I've been using loads of spirals lately....................

ATCs #57 - 59

ATCs #42 - 45

Just discovered metallic pastels - oh what fun!  Did a couple that were requested on ATCs for All and tried out 'Intuitive portraits'. 
PS: Donna, you're a sweetie popping in here all the time!

A requested trade for someone on ATCs for All

This is a puzzle set of 4 cards.  Not as easy as it looks (it took me a while to get everything to fit - and I'd painted it!)

New in my sketchbook....

After the set of ATCs I felt inspired.  I'm happy with the skin colour I've been mixing - seem to have found the right combination now.  Need to buy some Micron pens - the Sharpies are way too thick for this kind of thing.  Will have to order some on Ebay.

Now to work on some random ATCs for trading.......
