Five minute scrapwood bird



So named because it took five minutes on a scrap of hardboard. Just ink and white acrylic on hardboard.

Bears and bears and bears oh my!

My ursine obsession seems unlikely to dwindle at any point in the future. I must say, though, that the terror created by your mother being in hospital with something potentially really quite nasty going on keeps you awake and leaves you with a hell of a lot of free time to paint and stuff. Also the going a bit mental from it bit leads to media experimentation. The next one is ink on hardboard. Unfortunately I don't have a saw right now, and scalpels, no matter the vigour with which they are used, do not cut it very effectively at all.

Basically, expect more bears. I may get a bear tattoo

It's been too long.


I have been very busy (mainly procrastinating) so haven't put anything up on here in ages. Lazy, lazy me. I'm taking advantage of my last little while where I don't HAVE to work.

I did this a while back. It was mainly to play with a wash technique I saw somewhere, I like it.


The scan is crappy, because it's in a teeny little book all made of envelopes that I bound REALLY BADLY. Shockingly badly. I have to tie the buggering thing together to stop it from laying half open all the time. I'll get it right eventually. Possibly.
