whimsical houses - African Safari

A trip to Africa this time :)
 More subdued colours and all the little animals that were great fun to do though I think the zebras should really be watching their backs  :)

Fun with colour in this Aceo based on japan :). here we have Mount Fuji, a tranquil zen garden, japanese cranes and an oriental dragon, all in glorious technicolour. I'll calm down for the next one....maybe ;)

Raven Wings



This is the larger project I mentioned a few posts back - I finally got time to head off to the stationers to get it photocopied down :) It's slightly smaller than A3 and in watercolour. Basicly it started as a doodle I did while watching a movie and sort of evolved. It was one of those drawings you start and go wherever it takes you. My figure may be slightly "off" I think as I didn't really use any reference for it, but the whole point was to have fun - which I did :)

Aceo of the day - Storm at Sea

whimsical houses - storm at sea


Continuing the storm theme. To be completely honest this was done as an excuse to play with my silver pen - as I had so much fun playing with my gold pen on the last one :)

Aceo of the day - Sandstorm

whimsical houses - sandstorm


It's that time of the week again - my Illustration Friday entry. This week's subject was "storm" and I have already used thunderstorm as a subject so I had to think of something different. This then is my ( slightly abstract ) version of a desert sandstorm :)

Back to Aceos :) This one is my entry for Illustration Friday's latest weekly challenge. The topic this week is "wheel" and as I've already covered trains and racecars , I went all historical and drew some Roman chariots :)

Sorry for the delay in updating - I have been working on a larger project over the last week or so. I had a random idea for a larger painting while watching a movie, and decided to work it up after some input from the other half :) It is slightly smaller than A3 in size so I will scan it in and post it once I get chance to get out to the stationers and photocopy it down to A4 so it will fit in my scanner. It does fit in with Illustration friday's topic of "wings" which they had last week but unfortunately it wasn't finished in time :(

Anyways, aside from that, I have worked up these four designs for my Digi stamp website and posted them up - hopefully in time for valentines day :)
