Rodents, Bear, Doodlewash and Abstract

I've entered this abstract pattern in the Spoonflower design competition which is running now.

It was mainly designed on my tablet and made into a repeating pattern on my computer.

Two paintings from a sketchbook

And the latest Doodlewash painting using three of the prompts

Egg, Puddle and Iris

It's Paint Party Friday again

Random Paintings and T-Shirt

 I tried to copy from photographs for the deer above and the two paintings below but was disappointed with how they turned out. Stick to my usual style or practice more?

My daughter asked if I could decorate 3 t-shirts with vintage 79 as she and two friends were celebrating 40th birthdays. I cut the numbers and letters out of heat transfer vinyl on my digital cutting machine. They were then ironed onto the t-shirts.

I'll not be posting for a couple of weeks or so but I'll be back.

Bear Rest

Two more drawings combined.

Painted on my android tablet with Corel Painter App.

Alone in the Woods

King Bear and TAST 1

Above - digital collage using images from the Graphics Fairy

Below - Take a Stitch Tuesday - the stitch is knotted feather stitch which I have worked on a collage of paper, some art work, some found papers. This is WIP, I will be adding more to it and it will be a page for my Green Book.

Last year I worked on a large project and posted some snippets of the work when I had used a TAST stitch. If you would like to see the finished work click here.

Woman and Bear

I did this digital collage a while ago, I was saving it for something, don't know what.

The image of the woman and bear, yes they were together was from a book I have - Women Archive Pictures. The background was a photo I took of a gravestone and graveyard.

Swans, Cygnets, Sketchbook Pages, Button Gift

Before my daughter and husband got the train back to London we went to Herrington Park and we saw lots of swans, a pair of them had baby cygnets. But it was really cold.......

When I got back home I opened a lovely packet of buttons which had come from a blogging friend - Sherry. Check out her blog, she is always creating lovely things.
