Jellyfish and Postcard

I'm filling up quite a few sketchbooks with all this drawing practice, so I'm using one that I made way back in 2012. Some of the pages are brown, possibly recycled envelopes. The covers are stamped and painted, I used handmade rolling stamps, a tutorial can be found above. The ideas for the jellyfish were from the book '20 Ways to Draw a Cat and 44 other awesome animals' by Julia Kuo.



I used some of the jellyfish on this digital collage. The background was painted many years ago.


Also this week I have a digital postcard consisting of six layers.

I'm joining in with Paint Party Friday.

Sketchbook Project [10]

I started with a pen drawing of jellyfish, then painted their inards with a Liquitex Interference paint. I had some fabric [transfer print which I did at college a few years back], which I scanned into the computer and then printed onto a sheet of translucent vellum. I then drew on similar jellyfish to those on the sketchbook page.


One is then placed over the other to make it look like a sea full of jellyfish.
