Rose with an aura!

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today's is a rose with an aura. My mum often draws things with their life energy visibly represented, my brother even comes a team for it " auras of zing"!

So this is a rose with auras of zing!

Shells bleeding ink.

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today's is shells.

Doing one every day, just for fun, gives me a chance to experiment without feeling I must produce sellable design on time. However not all experiments are successful and I'm not convinced about this one. The shell on the left has a fat ass! And as they conform to a mathematical spiral you can't just say it's a natural variation.

Mother's beach, Mornington, Melbourne, Australia

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today's is mother's beach (so called because it is sheltered, and slopes out very gently). The little town of Mornington is Victorian, Australian style, so it looks like an American old west town, painted in Brighton beach hut colours!  We found many many starfish. Jasmine and I love this spot.

Cafe, bluebells cafe, East Grinstead

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today's is a cafe. Drawing a busy environment like this is a bit confusing, you have to edit out details, in your mind, edit out, edit out...

Mermaid

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today I have been drawing with my daughter so the subject matter and style are not very serious. I have included her drawing too. (She is 8).

Horse moving briskly.

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, had I thought about this carefully when said I would I could have worked out this would mean I did some while horribly sick in bed.

So yesterday's and today drawings might not be my best but they represent a lot of commitment!

Black and white flowers.

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today's are black and white flowers. Inspired by the riot of blooms in my mum's garden, that her husband plants.

Europe in a camper van!

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today's is one of my dreams. My family and I are planning to take a year out and explore Europe in 2019.

We have this huge map in our bedroom and we all add arrows and dots when we find out about some place we want to add to the tour. I've included a picture of the map.

What are you dreaming of?

Venice and me wen I was there!

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.
Today's is Venice, a city mostly built with income from silk made in China.

Just for fun, here is a picture of me when I was here.

Loch Lomond, Scotland

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today is my birthday, I'm 39.

I asked people yesterday what I should draw on my birthday and most said myself, in a way this is what I have done, if you extend the definition of myself to include the things that represent me.

The idea came from a text from my mum "Happy Birthday my Loch Lomond girl" this is where I was born and used to be the clan lands of my father's clan. Now it's a national park.

Bird. Raptor? Bird of prey?

I'm creating a drawing a day for a year, just for the art of it.

Today's is a bird, no doubt someone will tell me what kind. I love birds but I was scared of being labeled a bird watcher as a teen-ager so I didn't listen when my dad taught me all about them. I was seldom a sullen teenager, but you have to draw the line somewhere.
