Entwined

I had this image in my mind for a while and didn't really know how I could make it look as though there were 2 pairs of arms going round the bodies! I hope I've achieved it, even though I've ended up with just the one hand. The other are hidden behind at the back you see, they are - really!

Thanks Jannie, I thought yellow would be a bit more interesting for a change!
Thanks Julie :)
Thanks Doodlegirl, I'm glad you noticed I'd done that with the design! I wanted the bodies to merge together but remain seperate- if that makes sense!:)

More Cottages During Lockdown and a Change in Medium.

I've been thinking about why I'm drawing cottages lately.  Maybe it's because there aren't many people around where we live and on our daily walks we rarely come across anyone else which I suppose is a good thing as we're still in Lockdown and have to practice Social Distancing which has now become a very well used phrase in our language! Maybe it's this lack of seeing people around that my mind is turning towards houses and flowers? The ones above are done in ink. I love the pearlescent inks, they're so beautiful when they catch the light. The paintings above and below are painted in acrylic. I've been obsessed with watercolour for a few weeks but I felt I'd like to get some acrylics out again. I've always been like this, going through phases of being obsessed with a particular medium thinking yes this is it! This is my final medium and then finding myself being drawn to changing once again to a different way of wor...
