Title: Jenny wrenMedium: glassCreator: Robyn Coetzee The last, or rather, the latest fused glass bird in my little collection — I'm sure Robyn will come up with another design I can't resist.

thistle It would be foolhardy to claim that I will ever complete all of the many art and craft classes I've signed up for over the last few years, but I am determined to finish at least some of them. I've done five of Sandy Allnock's classes and am part way through another couple —… Continue reading Copic wildflowers
Another challenge! I had been doing some colouring for the latest Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge when Amy from Mindful Art Studio announced her Inchie Challenge. Twelve days of creating two-inch-square artworks in response to a prompt word. I decided that I would follow along and make mine as ink drawings coloured with watercolours.… Continue reading Inchie Challenge 2021 #1–3

Title: cheirolepis fossilMedium: ink Although this wasn't created as a work of art, I am counting it as one of the pieces of other people's art because of the skill involved in creating it. And the fact it was made by my brother. He went to university as a mature student to study conservation and… Continue reading OPA: cheirolepis fossil
Series: Wanderlust 2021 #31 I very nearly didn't do this lesson; this is another one from the Wanderlust guest host Kate Crane and the foundation process is quite similar to that used in the Found Poetry page I made earlier in the year. But, I enjoyed making that one so I decided to do this… Continue reading Wanderlust: painted texture
Of course, inspiration is hardest to find when I'm on a deadline. Birthdays at the start of the month are the worst because I don't tend to think about them until the month starts: "oh it's September now, what cards do I have to make, only two but they both need doing in the first… Continue reading Alcohol ink landscape

Title: Yellow rocket blast-offMedium: ceramicCreator: John @ Crazy Chicken Ceramics I'd been struggling to find something for my other half for Christmas. Unless I find something unusual, I have to leave getting anything until the last minute otherwise I run the risk of him just buying it for himself... so I was really pleased to… Continue reading OPA: rocket blast-off
The vast majority of my colouring is done with Copic markers, I've played with coloured pencils a few times (though I have to be in a particularly patient mood as those take forever to do), and then there are the occasional ones where coloured stamping takes centre stage. Apparently I made no notes whatsoever when… Continue reading Butterfly beauty
