watercolour

I painted the background in watercolour. The self portrait was a separate pencil sketch. After a bit of mucking around with them both on my phone, I came up with this. In case you're wondering, I have septum piercings, which is what the protruding part is, near my nose.

Autumn

A few stars and moon highlights to add.

The hair needs some work before I can say that this is finished. It's the only part that I'm not happy with. Edit: I fixed the hair but made the face worse, and ended up ruining the painting. So. There you go.

I'm starting to learn how to paint with watercolors. This is my first picture. I wish I did the moon better, but I'm happy with how it came out otherwise.

...made of pumpkin. Done with watercolours, coloured pencil and some details in gel pen on mixed media paper.

All yellow, apart from the bits of green. This one was done with gouache, watercolours and coloured pencil.

Still unfinished. I keep painting on my sketch pad and not watercolour paper, which means the paper warps when drying. Hence the face being slightly wobbly.

Wake up your creativity! Take a piece of paper, something to write on, and draw a few lines/circles/squiggles. Then more and more, and so on... Let your imagination run wild. You can create something beautiful out of nothing.

I created this piece in response to the ongoing mistakes and let downs from the organisations who should be protecting and taking care of people. I still have a couple of tweaks to do, but it is basically finished. I used flour and water paste to add texture to the brickwork and to attach the logos.

Painted for a friend's birthday.

I took a lot of artistic licence with this, and am not happy with the flower itself. I do like the branch and leaves though.

Another one that I thought I'd messed up, but that came good in the end.

I thought I'd ruined this, as I was adjusting the highlights, but then it suddenly came good.

My own foot is eluding me...

I am experimenting with gouache and watercolour. Here is a witch I painted into my sketchbook.

I have a thing about acorns.

Pen sketch and watercolours.

This was an absolute sketch for fun that I decided to paint.

Watercolour and coloured pencil on watercolour paper. Usually I paint on watercolour paper that costs about 3$ for a pad with 10 sheets. This was the first time I painted on paper that costs about 1$ per sheet. And yes, it DOES make a difference. :D

Patience - is so important thing in our life. It is so easy to forget about it... Be patient :)
