Butterfly

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

This is the 27th of May's drawing as I've had no WiFi and mobile signal. Staying at a lovely holiday cottage.

Day 400 and 30,000 views! Butterflies

I'm creating a drawing a day, just for the art of it. Today is day 400 and amazingly also the day this blog reached 30,000 views, coincidence.

I have done lots of kids art today, art with my daughter and her friends. My day was: park, art, Lego, pizza, art, Tax return!

I squeezed this in (with my daughter's felt tips) while looking after three big girls and the baby. :)

I have a blog where I share my children's art ideas if you are interested:

Today's is a butterfly. I have been designing furnishing fabric for the last two hours which I have to keep secret untill it's sold and manufactured - it's very nice for me to share the drawing of the day with my friends and have a two way communication!

If you want to see some textile design that is not secret you can see it here:

Also I have included a picture of me wearing one of my fabrics.

Calligraphy butterfly with a brush

Today's is a calligraphy butterfly, yesterday's concept, with a bit more of whatever it was it needed, probably giving a **it, I was pretty exhausted yesterday.

Also I had some excellent advice, a girl needs a master calligrapher to turn to in times of stress! :)

Today's is a calligraphy butterfly and dragonfly etc.
To be honest I don't think it's worked too well but I guess not all experiments will pay off.

Bamboo, butterfly and scribble!

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

Today's is a butterfly on bamboo.

I am making it up as I go and I seem to have scribbled all over this one 30 seconds before it was finished. I'm completely mystified as to why I did this, as before the scribble it was a nice tight, perfectly acceptable drawing! Perhaps it makes it? I'm honestly not too sure!

The beauty of doing a drawing a day is it doesn't really matter if it's a good idea or not, I can just try it, there are loads more to go, and no money related deadline on my back. :)
