Never Apologise


Never Apologise - Watercolour and digital illustration

Available at Etsy as an 8 x 10 print.

Original Watercolour - Alphabet


I have posted about this piece before, as it has been available as an 8 x 10 print for a few weeks here and here. I have now listed the original over on my etsy shop, grab it while you can!

Sweet Delights


The second piece in my new series of quaint English shops. This one features a bright sweet shop and tea room. The exterior is based on Lanes Patisserie & Cafe in Brighton.

It is now available as a 8 x 10 print in my etsy and folksy shops.

P.S. I want to thank everyone who has purchased a print so far. It gives me such a thrill to know that my artwork is adorning other people's walls. :)

Wild & Homeless Books


New print available at both shops. It is a part of my new series of painting depicting made up quaint English shops. I have another ready to be added online and I have many more planned for the future. 

8 x 10 print at Etsy and Folksy

Walk in Winter

I previewed this a couple of weeks ago here and I'm so excited to show you the final piece. It's now available as an 8 x 10 print over on both the etsy shop and on folksy.

I've been doing some sketching today and have two pieces ready to paint as well as 2 others ready to be added to the shops.

I really appreciate the support of my artwork so far. I didn't expect much when I listed my prints, but I'm pleased I've managed to sell a few. :)

Original watercolour


I am now offering some original watercolour paintings for sale. Rainy Days is the first one I have listed so if you are interested, please head on over at my etsy shop!

I will be adding a few more recent pieces over the coming days, and I also have some new paintings to share with you.

New Painting


I've no idea why I'm painting wintery scenes in summer, but there we go. A sneak peak at my new painting from today.

Summer Garden



Inspired by all the pretty flowers currently blossoming in my garden, which I can't really enjoy because I have hayfever. :( Still, I can enjoy them from afar!

Alphabet



Brand new print available in my etsy shop. I had a lot of fun painting this one. 

Rainy Days



Inspired by the dismal weather we've been experiencing here in jolly ol' England this month. 

In Progress


The new painting I'm working on tonight.

New Prints


British Biscuits - 8 x 10 print. Originally done in watercolour and ink.


Love Speaks - 8 x 10 print. Inked and then coloured digitally.

New Print


Not All Who Wander Are Lost - Now available as an 8 x 10 print at my etsy and folksy shops.

I had a bit of excitement the other day as I made my first sale! So thank you!

I also just got some more prints done of newer work and I'm really pleased with how they've turned out. I shall be updating my shops over the coming week with these.

New Watercolour


Spent yesterday working on this piece. I am so, so pleased with how it turned out. I didn't really know where it was going when I started sketching (using this delightful photo I found on Pinterest). I ended up whipping out my watercolours and went from there, adding more detail and shading as I went along.

It's lovely to see something finished, especially when you didn't perhaps intend for it to look the way it does.

In other news, I have opened my etsy shop! Most of my available prints are there, I have one or more to add. I've been quite enjoying setting up shop again (I use to own a craft supply and handmade gifts shop there). I don't have high expectations, so we'll see how it goes.

Getting There!


I've been working steadily over the past few weeks trying to get all my illustrations and artwork in order. I've been wanting to open an etsy shop for quite a while but I want to do it right so I'm getting everything prepared before I start offering anything for sale. 

I received my first batch of prints the other day and they've come out great. I did want to do all the printing myself at home, but my printer is not really up for that so until I can afford a fancier one, I'm ordering small batches for the time being just to see how things go.

I'll be sharing more pictures over the coming days of my progress and some previews of some of my work.

The above illustration was sketched in ink and then coloured digitally. Took me an absolute age to decide on the colour scheme for the balloons! 

St Basil


My latest painting is now complete. I'm so pleased with how this turned out. It's of St Basil's Cathedral in Russia. Such a beautifully colourful building, which is an absolute dream for me because I get to break out all the bright colours.
