Little Bunny in a Carrycot and Chickens

 Mini Carrycot and Bunny

I made this for my Granddaughter's birthday





I found the pattern on Pinterest and here is the link
I thought my Granddaughter had a small doll to fit the carry cot but her doll was too big so I made a little bunny to go in it. Pattern here.

More Sketchbook Revival


Day 8 with Karen Stamper - Colorful characters.
A figure was found on the web, printed then the shape was used to cut from bright papers.
I used the back of the original print on the collage below. There was something already printed on the other side from another project. I used the cut out to paint around it.


I used the cut out as a stencil



Day 12 with Angela Fehr - Developing your intuitive style through spontaneous watercolour
I took a section of this, replicated and turned it etc to make a repeating pattern





Day 9 with Toni Burt - Sunshine on a cloudy day


Day 13 with Brandon Dean Johnson - Rough cartoon sketching




Day 13 with Karen Abend - Closing session - explore ideas, colour and meaning in a mini doodle diary.
This little accordion book was made with computer paper so is quite flimsy. I like to do the sessions while watching, sometimes it is impossible and I have to pause it but for this one I was way in front at times as I did really simple drawings. I used pen and coloured pencils apart from the house which was painted with watercolour.

I've not done all the sessions but I may do some more if the mood takes me

Day 8 with Roisin Cure - Beach Bodies: The life drawing class everyone can attend.


Day 9 with Alina Smolyansky - Healing and Dreaming with Neurographic Art.
I don't think I did this one as shown, I got lost along the way and did my own scribble. I guess I was still inspired by what I did see.





Day 11 with Este Macleod - One, two, tree : three fun approaches to create trees in watercolor
I made a little leaf out of fun foam as a stamp which I used on the tree on the left




Day 11 with Joy Ting Charde - Colourful landscapes


Day 6 with Elizabeth Foley - Expressing emotions with intentional mark making.
With this one we were supposed to see shapes and colours with thinking of a memory but that was not happening so I just made some marks with watercolour, then a few days later put on more pattern with a white pen.

SR - New Year Challenge

I've joined in with the Sketchbook Revival Happy New Year Challenge - 5 Days

Day 2 - Rabbit and Flowers / Watercolour
Day 1 - Rounded Shape /Ink
We were given a shape to use with I copied and then did it digitally and quickly because I didn't have much time

Day 3 - Curvy Shape /Ink
I painted it with watercolours before I remembered that it was an ink challenge so I drew over the lines with ink using a bamboo pen. My original outline was drawn with a liner pen.

This is the shape we were to use.

The bamboo pen and bottle of ink.

Friday Catch Up - 7Jan22

Sketchbook Revival New Year Challenge with daily prompts from Sarah Simon



 Day 1 - Ranunculus - continuous pen line drawing




Day 2 - Cosmos - coloured pencil sketch





Day 3 - Rose - pencil and fine line pen drawing

I thought I would paint one too


Day 4 - Lily - Dip pen and ink
I used Dr P H Martin Bombay Inks



I tried painting with the inks but they don't blend like watercolours



Day 5 [last day] Dahlia - Mixed Media
I used pencil, eraser!, pen, watercolours and Inktense blocks and pencils.
I found this flower the biggest challenge, I kept losing my place and I'm sure a lot of the petals are in the wrong place. But I don't think I would have attempted copying a dahlia flower before this.
