Highland cattle and my book is out! And an art tip.

Children's Tiger mask (no string needed)

I'm creating a drawing a day, for two years, just for the art of it.
Today's is a children's Tiger mask. You cut the strip out too and staple or sellotape it together so you don't need string. Feel free to print it off for your kids if you want. I'm not looking for a royalty on this one, it's just a game for my daughter. If you print it out A4 it should fit children (I cut one out to test it and it's a bit small for me but only slightly).

I have a blog where i usually share my kids art ideas:

My children in a pile of pillows.

I'm creating a drawing a day, to help, to try to beat back the dark a little. Can we beat back the dark with the likes of this? With the love of our children, and their love for each other? With art? With individual acts of tollerence? By example? Will the world they inherit be a little brighter than mine? Most days I believe it.

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.

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!

Dragon fish story!

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

Today's drawing is a story.

It was my mum's 70th birthday party and she asked guests to do a party peace. I created this story by asking the guests to shout out suggestions and drawing them as fast as I could.

Once upon a time there was a bird (and a magic lamp) who dreamed of becoming a dragon. The bad news is a dragon ate him. The good news is he still had the lamp, he rubbed it and a genie came out and made him into a swordfish. He cut his way free. In the end the genie made him into a flying-swordfish, which is even better than being a dragon! The End
