A lot of the images I've uploaded lately have been of cards I'm painting for my friends' birthdays.
Most of my traditional painting work seems to be for these cards, which is nice because it's great fun! It gives me a reason to create nice little unique images on a surprisingly regular basis. I've forgotten to take photos of quite a few of them, unfortunately :S
Anyway, a couple of people have said I should make these cards to sell. I'd love to, but I'm just not sure if there's much demand for slightly creepy forest scenes in silhouette at least not for birthday cards, haha! Maybe around hallowe'en?
So, anyone who reads this, would you consider buying a card like the ones in my 'Original Card Designs' collection?
I'm just wondering, not asking you to actually buy them!

Busy busy
So very busy...But still painting and doodling a bit here and there :)
Found my bottle of indian ink, so the painted cards I've been making now look a lot crisper and richer. :D This makes me happy.
I keep thinking I'll paint something bigger than just birthday cards in this style, too. It'd probably work well.
Pffff
Looking at the stuff I've drawn lately aaaaand... I'm starting to think I was right when I always told people 'I'm not an artist, I just like drawing'.
I'm pleased with the improvements to my technique over the last few months, but really - as complete images, my drawings are entirely underwhelming.
I should work on that.
Happy New Year!
So, with Christmas, NYE and moving house out the way I can get back to a normal-ish routine.
Considering I picked the busiest time of the year to try the sketch a day thing, it's been going alright, I think :)
I have a bunch of quick sketches from the Christmas period, which I'm sure I will upload to my scrapbook at some point. (I do need to buy a new scanner first, my old one...is dead.)
But, in the meantime, I'll be mostly working digitally. Comments and crits are always welcome, as I'm doing this to improve my work.
Thanks for reading and looking and things! xox
Sketch-a-day...maybe
Ok, so I've been pretty lax lately with the whole drawing... thing... and it's starting to show.
I've decided I'm going to try to draw and post something every day for a while...so let's see how this works out.
