The Sorceress

The Sorceress! I created this as a little card to put out
for my degree show, which was last friday!
It was a good night, much free red wine was drunk
(on my behalf) and there was a very good turnout.

I want to get some A2 prints of this piece up for sale on my etsy store,
as well as some smaller ones.

I drew the entire thing using pencil,
and then coloured it using photoshop.

Sneak Peek



OOh here's a sneak peek at my new illustration!
I've literally been working on this all day
as the hair and the top have a LOT of detail!

She doesn't have eyes yet,
I decided to leave it till last as they can make or break a drawing!

I've come to a realization that I only like to draw on
moleskine sketchbook paper, as it's so smooth and thick.
The one above is running out of pages and
I'm currently having a hard time parting with my money to buy a new one
as I have another, I just can't get to it.
It is handed in as part of my final major project.
It should be marked soon and I'll be able to get it back...
but until then, I have to draw small
and conserve precious paper!

Pretty Lace


for this illustration I scanned in some antique lace,
that my mother had stashed away,
and used it to create a collar/top.

I did the drawing while at uni waiting for the external examiner
to show up- It's probably the last bit of work I'll ever do there...
Scary!

New website Design!

This was changed a few weeks ago,
but `i'm only just catching up with all the things I've been meaning to do!
My new website design!
I always like a fresh change and I'm very fond of this illustration.
I kept my title font but changed the link font to a more 'Scawly' one.

Line work


Here are two illustrations from my final major project
Today I handed all of my work in!
but uni isn't quite over yet.
I still have a disgusting viva to do.
I HATE speaking infront of people, which is essentially what a viva is.
So wish me luck!

I can't wait to get stuck into drawings again.
It feels like forever since I just drew for the fun of it.
You could say I'm having with-draw-al symptoms...
sorry.
Some new illustrations will be posted soon,
Mark my words!!!
