I Drew A Lot of Birds.

Hello!
Went on a little drawing trip to the Natural History Museum and Pitt Rivers in Oxford this week with friends from uni.

Here are some of the quick sketchs i did mainly with my lovely waterproof needle point pen, water soluble pencils and water brush. :D

 I seemed to draw a lot of birds considering the wide variety of things they have there!

I found it weirdly strange to be drawing from objects it front of me again, after spending about a week the days before running round in my imagination. I've been working on sorting my major project out that will take me to the end of my degree this coming june. I don't want to jinx anything.....but....it may be starting to materialise....
D:
One of the things i'm doing is filling a sketchbook entirely with the basic starting points/ narrative/ themes of some 'Stories to Tell'. It's pretty fun and i'm trying not to get too precious/ self conscious/ picky about it since i think that's when the best ideas form :)
I cut and pasted a few of my favourite examples of some cells to show what the whole book will look like eventually!...

FUNNNNNN!
Here is an angry Fish to end...

Have a lovely rest of the weekend.

There are birds on that Lampshade...

Hi Hi,

My uni summer work is going slightly wrong and it's loosing direction a bit. So i've turned to other creative outputs for a while hah...
Introducing the bird lamp!
I've wanted a standing lamp for aggggges but they are expensive! Anyway i found a lampshade in the sale part of a home store for a fiver and got the actual lamp part off my grandma (she had it in her attic).

But it needed decoration ;D

Here it is plain and simple. I added the blanket stitch and beads round the bottom myself...

It's quite fun sewing onto something you don't usually get to!

And then taarRR DARR...

In other news! The lettuce in my veg plot is ready and looking finnnneee. There are also some courgettes coming through AT LAST ahh hah!

Bye for now :)

Cotsworld Wildlife Park

Hi all,

Back with said sketches i did yesterday at the Wildlife Park near Burford.
It was a fun day with sunny weather. We had ice creams, rode a train and saw lots of nice animals. I also became part of the attraction, sat under various trees, as small french children hoarded around myself and towered above me and my sketchbook XD hah hahh.
Adults were less scary and asked to look and were less obvios about their watching :D

Lets start with a blurry drawing of a burrowing owl.... (i apologise now for the quality of the photos.)

Thats' all folks! I hope you like them.

I've got some moving out and turning 21 to do ;D

Badges and Birds!

heellllo,

I have a few new creations of mine to introduce to you :D

Firstly Tee Birds! like some other birds charms i made but BIGGER! and with a hand printed tag each. So obviously BETTER! here here...

I'm selling them at £3 each :)

Next-ly...BADGES! fun badge times :D

I also put them into to sets and sell them like that...I've sold the turquoise and the dark blue sets already on a craft stall, so it's going good :) I have plans to make more!

To finish, here is a pic i just thought was quite nice of how i like to work if i run out of room on my desk (this happens often!)...

...and my bottle collection hahah, there's something classy about a fake flower in a cider bottle don't you think? heh. I just like the brilliantly lovely colours they make when the sun shines through them :)

have a nice day,
