Time Flies!

Well the last month or so has flown by and I've slightly neglected my blog. I have been busy. There's been snow and fun and Valentine's Day, as well as lots of other things in between. 

Here's a sample of what I've been working on (there is some colour too so keep scrolling)!

From my sketchbook a couple of lovebirds

There were a lot of chilly illustrators in January

A Daily Doodle for the letter P (check out @Daily__Doodle over on Twitter)

From my sketchbook - I can't imagine who this is (Chickpea)

For #nonidentikit over on Twitter started by Sarah McIntyre (@Jabberworks)

I have been experimenting a bit more with the way I paint and really liked this lady who is part of a bigger picture

I drew a lot of old men for the same picture

And plenty pugs too

Number 50 was my favourite

Here's a photo (taken on my dodgy phone camera) of the finished piece. I still have to scan this and put it on my website

There was 24hr comic day on the 1st Feb which I managed the first 3 hours and then got way too busy! 

This little fellow turned up in my sketchbook

As did a party slug

And some non-party newts

A whole cacophony of cats

Mini Monsters

There may have been new pens and more monsters

Finally there was Valentine's Day. I painted a picture for my husband. Here's a bit of the detail

The finished piece

Thanks for taking time to read my blog and well done for making it all the way down here!

Round up 31st August 2014

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:

Thanks for stopping to look at my blog. I hope you liked what you saw.

Have a great week,

Weekly round up 25th August 2014

It's been another busy week but for different reasons. My husband had the week off so we've been out and about. From accidental strawberry picking, visiting the British Museum (with Chickpea stalking through the place with a magnifying glass), visiting family, Wisley Gardens with friends and even the dreaded Ikea! 

It's been very busy indeed. So here's a few bits from my sketchbook:

New school uniform:

Wisley Gardens (drawn while 3 children were also entertaining me!):

Daily Doodle (@Daily__Doodle on Twitter) of Veruca Salt:

Daily Doodle of Charlie Bucket that I didn't get the chance to finish:

A snapshot of what it's like to have a 4 year old for 30 minutes:

Run!:

Thanks for looking at my blog!

Have a great week,

Teri
