Drawings and paintings :)

Just a couple of pictures of artwork I have done this week


This one I just did for myself, it was an image that had been going around in my head for a while, and I needed to get it into paper. It's just pencil on cartridge paper.



This chap, if you haven't already guesses, is Boris the miniature Schnauzer! Someone on instagram saw my painting of a sausage dog called Percy, and wanted one of their pooch. This was a nice fun one to do. It is done in watercolour and fine liners on watercolour paper.

Recent work

I took my work into the camper van, so I had a nice little outdoor studio.


Winston came to keep me company! :)

Smile At A Stranger


I always think that a smile from a stranger can brighten up you day. It's a shame people don't do it more often, dogs are much more forthcoming (though not sure I agree with their other greetings, probably best to leave that to the dogs!)

Vanfest 2011 (with added pugs!)

I'm more than a little slow off the mark here, as Vanfest was nearly a month ago now, but here are a few pics. For those that don't know Vanfest is a VW weekend festival. It was Winston's first camping trip and he loved it!


Winston's VW themed neck a chief!



Winston meets the puppy version of himself!


Cool ratty split


Nice late bay, complete with moody sky!


cute little caravan


Amazing splitscreen that the owner had used Posca Pens all over!

Winston!










For anyone that knows me at all, they will have been aware of my pug obsession!

I have wanted one for pretty much as long as I can remember, and drew one at my grandparents from a picture in a newspaper when I was about 10 ( they still have the picture!)

Me and my husband had been talking about getting a dog for a few years, day dreaming about taking one away in our campervan with us and having it sat with us on the sofa. We looked at all sorts of dogs, and when my mum was ill we helped out by looking after her Westie 'Molly' for a few weeks. We loved having her, which made us realise we really did want a dog, but I knew I wouldn't be really happy unless we got a pug.

After a few weeks of looking and having several disappointments, we found this adorable fella! He is 2 years old on the 13th September and has settled in with us so easily, you'd think he'd always been ours! Expect many more photos and blog posts in the future! You have been warned!
