A Garden of Insects

-

I was watching the TV this morning while eating my breakfast and sat there admiring the beautiful colour of Lady Gaga's dress. It was an unusual shade of pink and really suited her colouring. I though either her or her stylist must have a very good sense of colour. A few seconds I realised it was made out of MEAT! arrgghhhhh!

The picture above bears no relation to what I've just told you, I just thought I'd share my page of pen and ink drawing I did yesterday while I was babysitting! It was fun, I think I'll do some more! :)

I hated the very idea of a meat dress but I did love those weird, gold, skyscraper shoes.
I like your drawings. I have met a few of those creatures.

Love your pen and ink drawing!

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...
