My Colourful Dreaming Paisley Girl

-
Today I'm listing my painting of Paisley Girl on Etsy! Do you remember I did this one a few weeks ago for Illustration Friday's word which was ...er Paisley!

She's painted with watercolour and a touch of pencil crayon with pen and ink. I loved playing with salt to get the lovely textures in her dress.

The original painting will be only $40 (which is approximately £25, or €28 ). The Etsy site will automatically convert the money to your own currency, whatever country you're from! :)

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.
