Flower

This is a flower that started to grow in my mum's garden during the 7 months she's been in care. They just sprung up one day, out of the cracks in the garden path. I know that it's some kind of weed, but I don't know what it's called.

Clip Art Sets

I have been very busy lately, trying to make some clip art sets to add to my Etsy shop (after noticing that there wasn't actually that much quality Scottish clipart available on the site). I am also in the process of creating a Japanese monster set. More to follow soon!

Thistle, Berry and Heather Pattern

So these past couple of days I've been working on some new pattern ideas- this being one of them. I hope to get at least one more done by the time I have my Cultural Enterprise meeting this week, but everything takes so much time! I am hoping to secure funding so that I can get my patterns and designs printed in bulk and start trying to distribute them.

 I am quite happy with how this one turned out, I think it'll make a nice little mug :-) and I'm hoping the little shops that I'm targeting agree! If that fails, I always have Etsy... Wish me luck!

Happy First day of spring!

I wanted to see the solar Eclipse today, but the sky was too cloudy!

Bridal hair

So I thought that I might as well blog about this :-) 

I created it last week, whilst expanding my knowledge of Adobe Illustrator. I taught myself to add textures, and well as working on my skills in fashion illustration. I found the bridal hair styles on Pintrest- which is a GREAT tool, I've come to find; and I created my illustrations inspired by them.

Bridal stuff

Today I am working on submissions for bridal magazines. People have never been my strongest point, adult people even less so... I really hope that she doesn't look like I child bride. Also I'm trying to work more in digital with different brushes that I've created from scanning my mark making in.

Oh well. Wish me luck! (still tweeking this a wee bit, but here we are!)
