Birds

I've been working on another wee digital print....birds this time.

Illustration Friday

I'm unexpectedly having to go back home tomorrow so just banged out a wee quicky drawing for Illustration Friday before I leave. This weeks topic was 'Star Gazing'.

Dundee Jamboree...again

As I said in my previous post I spent a few hours yesterday and today hand painting some frames. I did this as a present for my friend at christmas and quite a few people said they really liked them.

I might do a few more leopard print ones in different colours but I also have an idea that incorporates the clay ice lollies I've been making.

Dundee Jamboree

Yesterday we spent the afternoon having a wee craft session in order to make things for our stall at the next Dundee Jamboree (http://dundee-jamboree.blogspot.com/).

Inspired by a recent drawing, I spent my time making wee clay ice lollies which will hopefully end up as brooches.

I've been my usual indecisive self when it came to picking a colour. Along with my wee shoes drawing from the previous post, I'd like to sell these as digital prints as well as cards. I'm working on a few more drawings in my four by four digitally coloured style and I've also been busy hand painting different patterns on wooden frames (which I'll post pictures of tomorrow).

There is a blog showing our crafting in progess which can be found here: http://tbadfcommunity.blogspot.com/

Shoes

I wanted to draw some shoes because I like shoes so I drew some of my shoes.

Usually I would screen print a wee drawing like this but I'm going to have to leave it as a digital drawing/print. Think this would make a really cute repeat pattern for wrapping paper. 

Illustration Friday

I've finally got round to drawing something for Illustration Friday. I can't even remember how long I've been intending to start. The theme this week was 'Caged'. I couldn't help but draw one of my four by four drawings. I love my wee four by fours and shall continue doing them until I don't want to anymore.

Exhibition Watching

I was back down in Pittenweem today as I had volunteered to watch over the open art exhibition. Despite the torrential rain it was actually quite busy and the hours passed extremely quickly.

My wee print down in the bottom right corner next to David Aitken's work.

I really liked this mixed media piece called 'Grey Wagtail' by Claire Reid

And I thought that 'Q for the Sales' by Kay Thomsom was also really interesting (click on the image for a larger, easier to see version).

Two of my classmates also had work in the exhibition; Sarah Bissell (second from the left, top image) and Rosalind Mundie (second from the right, top image).

I'm glad I managed to make it down to see the exhibition but wish I could have seen more of the festival while I was there. I will definately be submitting work again next year and would quite like to get a bit more involved with volunteering I think.

The Pittenweem Arts Festival will be on until the 15th.

Just a wee reminder that information about purchasing my prints can be found down a wee bit in the previous post.
