Illustration Friday: Frozen

-
I really wanted to do this week's Illustration Friday topic and had various ideas but time was against me. You have no idea how a broken washing machine can rule my life! I did do some sketchbook drawings though,and here they are. I hope they'll do!

Summer Breeze

I love the handpainted wallpaper in one of the rooms, so detailed. It was difficult to choose which part to photograph there was so much amazing pattern.   It's based on   an early English chinoiserie wallpaper from around 1700. The artist Mark Sands working on t...
