Red Riding Hood and More

This week has been mostly about painting but I've managed some Daily Doodles and also a quick poem for National Poetry Day.

Harry Potter for @Daily__Doodle:

A Ballerina Bear also for @Daily__Doodle

A poem (it spells out POEM) for National Poetry Day

A piece for a private client. Little Red Rising Hood with a friendly wolf. 

Stippling the path worked really well

I used a very fine paintbrush to draw the detail on the picnic basket 

There was a request for bluebells, butterflies and a ladybird

Here's a snap from my phone's camera of the final piece

Thank you for taking the time to read my blog.

I'm running a bit late with this one. Chickpea starts school this week so it's been busy! All very exciting though.

Anyway, here's some sketchbook work from me:

Testing out some colours and inks.

Ballerina Guinea Pig

From my sketchbook: The guinea pig started with a post someone made about their pet (thanks Leon) but the ballet dancing bit? That came from my own madness.
