3 images
I thought I would try a few different materials this week and all three pictures are from photos I have taken.
My first attempt I did over a couple of days and is water colour only (ok, a little bit of fine liner before I had a word with myself). A swallowtail butterfly at Butterfly World in St Albans.
The second was a very quick torn paper collage of a ladybird on a sunflower at Hitchin Lavender.
The third is back to my trusty fine liner. A robin with a beakful to feed its chicks in my garden.
There is a wonderful creative community on facebook - 52 Week Illustration Challenge. It's called a challenge, because we each challenge ourselves to produce an illustration every week following a prompt set by the group's admin. I think of it as a community because there is a huge amount of support and encouragement amongst its members to have faith in our work and to grow as artists. (There I said it, 'artist'!)
