Here's a portrait of Yuko Shimizu that I'm working on for an IlloStories project (check the group out on Facebook).
I took her pose from one of her photographs, then used colours, patterns and textures that were inspired by her artworks.
This could be a front page for a book about her, or maybe a page for when her story reaches this point!
This drawing is a get away, feel good drawing. I am a bit lost at the time, and lack my usual energy, so just doing this spontaneous drawings feels good. But Its not patterns, which I should be doing.
The inside of my 3rd coloringbook with 100 drawings of Magical Patterns, like this snake. My flu-yin has killer whale seems to get most credit from that book.
Play : Intuitive work, where patterns balloon and swirl and twist and turn to create a new play field for our three.

Filtered digital collage of photography, digital patterns, pixel art, and pen & pencil on paper.
Text paraphrased from my friend Lydia.
Drawings are studies of statues I photographed:
Horse's Head, The Parthenon Sculptures, The British Museum, London, UK
The Bassai Sculptures, The British Museum, London, UK
Whenever I make an artwork. I start with a random image and just start flowing while I edit. I belief that this will lead the result to deflect the state of my mind. In this case it was a photo of me and my cat. Take a moment a find the message this picture has to offer you. I hope that I was able to add something to your flow of thoughts.
