Out and About and Resene Colour Inspiration!

Inspired by Nature...

I never realized how much inspiration i get from nature until I started using Instagram and looked back on my posts/photos.
I now take a little more time to look at whats around me and it's amazing the things you see and the inspirations that surround you if you just take a few seconds to 'stop and smell the roses'.

Happy Drawlloween!

I REALLY wanted to participate in Mab Graves Drawlloween this year and I tried, i really tried... but I didn't anitipate the work and energy that goes into creating an artwork a day!

Here is one of the VERY FEW ideas i managed to get down on paper... Next year I will put time aside to work HARD on Drawlloween! - For now, I think I'm going to take my sketch futher and look at putting her onto canvas.

New Drawings and Ideas!

I have been gradually getting back into artsy stuff and this week i have two new Girls/Drawings to share!

The Inspiration behind these Girls came when we went on a little outing to a rather whimsical, somewhat secret location and found HUNDREDS of these little wings scattered all over the ground.
I put a few in my pocket, alas, most of them broke... must make a note to go back and gather more!

A Whimsical World

Anyone who knows me knows my love of Fairy-tales. This is where A LOT of my inspirations comes from and its surprising the amount of whimsy you can find in the 'Real World' if you just take the time to look around you.
This week i found some awesome, whimsical inspirations in my own back yard!
