Mushroom Fabric and Doodles

This is a design I did for a Spoonflower contest a few weeks ago.

Another repeating fabric design

This one started as a doodle on my android tablet.

Trees, Birds, Mushrooms and Flowers

For my inspiration I've been going through the book '20 Ways to Draw a Tree and 44 Other Nifty Things from Nature' by Eloise Renouf

The sketchbook pages are 15cm square.

Where's the Chimp?

Another page from sketchbook 61. 

I started with an ink drawing then painted with watercolours.

Happy Paint Party Friday

Birds and Mushroom Sketch

This is an ink drawing I did recently in one of my larger sketchbooks [16"x 11"]

I altered the threshold in photoshop on the picture above to make the lines a bit clearer.

3D Printing

Before Christmas my husband was wanting ideas for gifts and I said I wouldn't mind one of those 3D pens so it was a big surprise when I opened a large box with 3D printer in it, it was not a pen but a printer!

But it is very hard for my little brain to learn how to design things to print. All the items here are not my designs, they are available on the web.

I put the fairy house in my miniature garden

Items are printed in a plain colour such as this brown. This is the fairy house before I painted it.

This dinosaur has three poorly's, my toddler Grandson thought it would be fun to throw him down, but it is quite delicate in places.

This is the printer if you were wondering what it looked like.

Grimoire Book - Pages 17-29

This and the next drawing are my versions of pages by Malcolm Bird from 'The Witches Handbook'.

I think his drawings are wonderful and the rhymes are funny.

The leaf fairy or thrush sprite is my version of a painting by Howard Swindell.

Check Pinterest for the fabulous original.

The original of this little fairy can be found in Lady Cottington's Pressed Fairy Book.

Grimoire Book - Pages 5-16

I forgot to say yesterday that Helen coloured the edges of all the pages too.

I've done all the other work in the book, Pinterest was very helpful.
