I plan to colour some of these little guys for prints. They were really fun to make.

Dr Sketchy's
A couple of weeks ago Paul, Mark and I went to Dr. Sketchy's. It was the second of these events in Newcastle and was an absolutely great day. Can't wait for the next one.

Making a Mess...
I may be paraphrasing but to make anything you must first make a mess.
Sometimes it's hard even to do that. Other times a design just falls into place. Making cards is a whole barrel of fun and testing out new ideas can be really rewarding.
I love that I can mix collage, illustration and recycling all together into one thing like this.
Especially when the results are so pleasing to others too.
I didn't learn this from formal education, that's for sure. What I did learn was that it's important to believe in what you're doing. It's very difficult to do good work if you don't believe in it or yourself. I know there are people graduating out there at the moment. I must say well done to you all. Don't stop believing in what you want to do.
This one is for you...
