Spring birds

Hi people! How are you all today?  My day was jam packed and busy. It started with a traffic jam on the  M4 on the way to work, took me an hour and 50 mins to move 12 miles..Not the best start to the day! Tonight I am happy to be home with a rather snugly Arthur cat beside me as finish off some artwork on my laptop. I'm busy working on some bird art at the moment..The problem is that I want to draw every type! It would be nice to do an A-Z of birds soon I think... For now what do you think of this Blue Jay?

Wishing you all a happy evening from me.

Speak soon **** :-)

Jim Denevan

I've been doing some research into environmental artwork lately. I've always been interested into ephemeral artworks and today I came across the work of artist Jim Denevan and I just had to share it with you. You can visit his website here.

It's been a while....

I've been meaning to make this happen for a while..This morning I woke up early and made it happen..Early morning drawing..Wonderful..My sketchbook is brimming with notes and doodles for work that never quite happens at the moment..

I'm finding it so hard to make time for drawing and making..This makes me so sad. I think I need to do some serious re-jigging in my life to make room.. I need to plan in regular art and creative time..

Do any of you plan in creative time to your day/week? I'm imagining that i'll need to work on a few hours here and a few there as I just don't have a whole evening or day to spare theses days..I'd like to hear how other people with busy lives manage.


'Two for joy' 2012

I hope your all having a good weekend. I spent the day helping a friend search for fabric for her wedding dress, we were looking for tweed, linen and lace and found some lovely fabrics that may hopefully make a very unique, beautiful dress for my friends November wedding..Very exciting!

Speak soon folks ***
