These are a few more projects that I’m working on, or have finished. Two came about because I found some cast-off pieces of paper and board and decided to mess about. One was commissioned by a friend as a gift for her brother.
I don’t really know about this one. We’ll see what it’s all about when I feel like it’s finished.
A rather small little study in watercolor. About 3X5. Will continue detail with colored pencil and pen and ink or gouache.
“Expiring Frog”
A fun little piece. A friend bought a book of terrible poetry as a Christmas gift for her brother and thought that an illustrated awful poem by Dickens would be a nice accompaniment. This particular gem is from “Pickwick Papers”. The style is William Morris. The lettering is . . . not fantastic. Oh well.
Another work in progress–my studio. It’s a lovely, light-filled space with, get this, storage. Which is why I’m baffled as to why I don’t spend more time there. I’m pretty much a catastrophic idiot. The homely chair in the corner was added so that I could read or cogitate for a bit after work. This helps the mind get into the mood for creation. Well, it usually does.
