Watercolours, Digital Art, Quilt, Hippo

Digital image created on my android tablet.
My granddaughter liked playing with it.

My daughter-in-law is expecting a baby so I made a hippo. I'm afraid my crocheting is not very neat although I think the yarn was a bit thinner than the one recommended so that may not have helped.


I've also made a floor quilt/play mat out of some Spoonflower swatches









Doodlewash
Day 6 Key

Day 7 Modern - 
I decided to do another key but the modern kind that you don't have to stick in the lock or ignition of a car.

Tablet Art

I used this doily type design to decorate this scribble type page, I used the doily in different sizes but it is the same one.

Happy New Year

 


Happy New Year everyone, hope you've enjoyed any holidays you may have had. I would like to thank you all for visiting my blog and for any comments you may have left over the past year.
Let's hope the year will soon be virus free!

Doodlewash - January 2021
I got some new inks and thought I'd try them on a these two doodlewash pictures. The writing and border are inks on the happy new year but the background orange is watercolour. The entire picture below was painted with the inks, I don't think it was very successful so I'll stick to watercolours for this kind of work and use the inks on mixed media works perhaps.
1. New [year, day, inks, baby], 2. Path, 3. Baby, 4. Flowers, 5. Fresh [also flowers]

Digital Art



You may have seen the single flower before but not the repeat pattern.
I used a plastic wrap effect in photoshop.
