22nd September '11


Generally I spend the weekends at my partner's house, so my 'weekday room' has sort of turned into my sleep-in studio. By that I mean it's a mess.
I have an assortment of markers, inks, paints, pens, paintbrushes, artbooks, sketchbooks and paper across my desk floor and stacked untidily in boxes... and that's before you get me started on the unfolded pile of clothes (they're all clean though).

It's a special kind of organisation that I don't think everyone quite understands, but if I know where something is I'm generally happier than having everything tidied away where I'll forget where I put it.
Luckily I'm out at work for a big part of the day so I don't have to look at it anyway.

Image today is a work in progress watercolour ink and alcohol-based ink on watercolour paper

I'm exhausted. I can't wait for my holiday in a week. Still a load of work to do before then.

Here's some colours. The red are going to be a pain to balance to the right shades post scanning. Just this small preview has made the lower flowers a lot more red than they are on paper. Oh well that's an exercise yet to come.

Midweek visits mean I've not had time to do much colour work, so here's another part sketch.
In other news it is very rainy. Good old British Summertime...

This weekend I celebrated my birthday. The Earth has officially made another complete orbit around the Sun since I was born.

Taking a break from the stuff I've been working on for a while to draw some stuff I like a lot - flowers, girls and birds

I realised I haven't uploaded any new art this year. Well this piece was completed a few weeks ago. The original is just smaller than A1 size and is inks on bristol board.
