Creative hat!

I lost my favourite hat so I've just bought a new one from 'Imogen's Imagination' from her on-line shop at  'Etsy. I think it will help me think creatively and, if not, then keep my head warm!

Etching today - the metal is etching in copper sulphate. Magical to watch!

Miniprint exhibition - Lahti, Finland

I'm very excited to have successfully got through the second juried stage of the Miniprint Finland 2014 /Graphic Artist Association of Lahti competition. 
 
800 applied in the first place and now 134 have been accepted for exhibition, including 7 other UK artists.  
The theme was infinity and I sent in some small etchings.

Vietnamese scooter riders and a tiger

 
 
 
 A watercolour study of some female, Vietnamese scooter riders.  The woman with the red helmet is wearing a face mask.  I might strengthen the colour of the mask, or of the background, to make it stand out more.


A study created using Pitt brush pens and watercolour with some graphite pencil used over the top in some places.
 
A pen/ink and watercolour sketch of a wooden, sculpture of a tiger outside a temple at a Cambodian monastery
