Wow, September is nearly over and I’ve only just managed to complete this month’s calendar art journal page.

Painting a colourful little bird :)

Watercolour sketch
I recently finished a Life Book 2015 watercolour sketch, I had great fun making this as I hardly ever use my watercolours and pencils. But will try to do so more in future. I also made a fast forward video, and started a canvas painting of a Pink Necked Green Pigeon :)

Art Journal Play
I was busy playing in in my art journal over the weekend, whilst it was cold and wet in London. I wanted to throw as much colour around as possible and use a number of different art supplies found in my ‘woman cave’ to make a few mixed media pieces. This one was made using…
Video Tutorial – Make a paper cut wing from scratch :)
Hello, I hope you are all well and enjoying mid-summer :) It was a bit wet and cold in London this weekend plus I hurt my leg in a fall on the Strand in central London (what a sight, I was sprawled all over the pavement) so I stayed in and painted lots of colourful art…
