Rembrant-Lyra Oil pencils are a dream to draw with…so smooth & creamy; and they’re heavily laden with a delicious pigment range!
Having so much fun drawing on wood again!

When too much is enough;

I, sometimes, just can’t help myself. A little bit more here, a touch there, a dash…hmmm, you get the picture. When is too much…well, too much? Never. As long as the composition is balanced and harmonious.

Eye Study

Sometimes it’s important to go back to basics, to remember all the little marks, nooks and crevices of a subject matter…because, it really is too easy to miss them in the rush for completion.
Unexpected Results; my favourite…
Uncategorized
On impulse, I embarked on an endeavor of pure experimentation; using fragments of vintage, lace curtains & doilies plus my homemade fabric stiffener, I created a 3D mould of a mannequin head. The unexpected? Well, I didn’t coat the mannequin in any kind of lubrication or releasing agent; so, when I removed the lace/doilies…the paint coating get the mannequin, came too! But, it looks great through the gaps in the lace, almost like a layer of skin. Perfect.
Sharing the Wealth

Using my artistic skills (okay, okay…crafting skills!), to bring my son enjoyment, is extraordinarily satisfying. I made him a doorway puppet theater for his bedtime stories, and well, he absolutely loves it! It makes bedtime less of a cajoling fight and more of a pleasure. He definitely appreciates it.
