Day 75 - Superb Fairy Wren 2

Day 74 - Superb Fairy Wren

Day 73 - Pink Magnolias
Day 72 - White Magnolias Couldn't help but paint some birds - I love painting Superb Fairy Wrens. The two wrens were a bit of an experiment as I am thinking of using the digital paintings as references for a traditional acrylic painting - just haven't decided on the size yet for the paintings.

Day 49/50/51 of 100 - Bunny with Balloon, Day 50 Red Flower, Day 51 - White Flower

Just playing around with trying to work out if I like seeing the pencil outline or not. I think I like both so think it is going to come down to what I am drawing and the look I am going for.

Day 17, 18 & 19 /100 - Little Bear, Choc Ice-cream cone and Little Bear with Flower Bouquet

 Day 19 - Little Bear with flower bouquet

Day 18 - Choc Ice-cream cone
Day 17 - Little Bear
Going forward I am going to post the daily drawing challenge paintings in a group rather than individually as I have other projects that I want to work on that I also want to share. I couldn't help but do a finished illustration for day 19 (Little bear with flower bouquet) and this one is my favourite one to date.

I think I am finally finding my digital style and it will be interesting to see what direction it takes over the next few weeks.

This one was rather fun to paint.   I built the underneath layer up a bit differently to how I normally do as a bit of an experiment and really love how it turned out so thinking about painting  a larger version of this scene.

The painting is available for purchase on Etsy.  To view the listing, please click here.

I changed this one quite a bit when compared to the reference photo by taking out the shrub foliage on the left to show the fields and mountain and I left  out a large tree on the right.  Really pleased with how the final painting turned out.

A few watercolour paintings

I felt like a change so decided to paint a few watercolour landscapes - a spring and autumn scene.  I painted them together - the reason being is I am a bit impatient to let the paint dry completely so that way I could work on one and while that one dried, I work other one - worked really well.

Spring Pathway - the painting is available for purchase through my Etsy Shop.  To view the listing, please click here.



 

Autumn Pathway - the painting is available for purchase through my Etsy shop.  To view the listing, please click here.
