Hello. Iāve been quiet recently- too many ideas, too little time!!
My currently project Artwise- is a set of empowered ladies.
Iām designing them as poster prints so Iām getting rid of the backgrounds digitally so theyāll be nice and clean.

Took ages which will teach me to do it as I go along.

Hello did you miss me? Iām back from a short holiday in Germany.
Lowri I know exactly how you feel about ideas and time to implement them! I donāt know where it goes to. I guess things will quieten down here in a couple of weeks when my brood goes back to uni.
Keeping things digitally clean is a nightmare isnāt it. Have you tried using a digital painting app on a tablet? I know some people have a lot of success with them for posters - I think Max uses one.
Loving your mixed media work Brenda, and that blue is gorgeous. I have terrible trouble photographing blues and always have to manipulate the photos in paintshop before Iām happy enough to list them.

Hello everyone, sorry not had much time lately to be on line, lots going on at home and work, just seem to be busy all the time lately. Sadly no time at all for painting and my jewellery workshops start back tomorrow so even less time now. Hello to Sarah Jane and Lucy, very nice to meet you :).
I have 3 digital art packages on my i-pad Lowri, I use i-draw, sketch pro and art rage, depending on my mood and they all do different things Lowri, one of the things I really like is using layers so you never mess up your original, you make all the adjustments on the layers. Speaking of digital art I did manage a few weeks ago to design this years Christmas Cards, quite pleased with the designs

Hello! waves
What lovely work to come back to! I love your gold boot Hanna-Mae. Your landscapes are looking great Brenda 
I specifically love the one you did today
Gorgeous pebble Alisa<3
Iāve been busy busy again putting stock together, Ive been sketching but havenāt had time to paint much and drawing has required a little bit of warming up.
At the moment Iām designing drawing specifically to work as prints.

Youāre not alone! Iāve just uploaded a tutorial called āaccurate drawing for beginnersā here: https://hanna-mae-illustration.org/2016/09/15/accurate-drawing-for-beginners-tutorial/
and have been obsessing over the large canvas piece I blogged about last week which Iām very excited about! Iāll have to upload an update photo soon =]
Your painting is wonderful by the way. Watercolour, yes? For some reason Iām fine with watercolour pencils but watercolour paints Iāve never really got the hang of!
