<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I was recently nominated to do the 5 day art challenge on <a href="https://twitter.com/lettucecelery" target="_blank">Twitter</a> by the lovely <a href="http://www.janeporter.co.uk/" target="_blank">Jane Porter</a>. I often avoid any kind of nomination type thing but this seemed like a fun idea and having moved house it was quite a useful challenge to find half the images I wanted to use.</span> <span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">I haven't been making a lot of work lately and it was a good reminder of all that I love. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace;">Having rediscovered my lost pencil case I have started drawing again and I am attempting to do a visual diary which I am SO enjoying. Wow, what a revelation. It is such a good way to make work without getting bogged down with ideas as all you have to draw on is your day. I am trying hard to be more observant because I very quickly realised how little I actually notice - was he wearing glasses? Was her hair tied up or down? It is a beautifully satisfying project. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">It has been an interesting summer and I have been busy with all sorts of different things. I have managed to get into the studio a bit and this week I have really enjoyed putting together a series of characters for a website being designed for gorgeous <a href="http://pothies.co.uk/" target="_blank">hand made slippers</a>. The new site will be going live in September and over the next couple of weeks I will be adapting the characters to fit with the photographic images. It has been a really fun process and I can't wait to see the finished site.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I have also been using social media a lot more with lots of images going onto my <a href="http://websta.me/n/lettucecelery" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/lettucecelery" target="_blank">Twitter</a>. It would be lovely if you could come and visit me there too.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I am really enjoying collage at the moment. I'm finding it a really useful tool to free up my drawings. I now have a tiny pair of scissors and I am gathering a good collection of papers though I am very fond of my buff sugar paper. I have been spreading my wings onto other social media recently. Do come and visit me on <a href="https://twitter.com/lettucecelery" target="_blank">twitter</a> if you haven't already...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">I have really enjoyed creating some designs for the OhhDeer t-shirt competition. The aim is to promote your work through facebook, twitter, instagram etc and OhhDeer will then select a new contributor based on the artists successful promotion and obviously great work. I'm not sure I have the huge network needed to massively promote the work but I have had a great response to my posts which is fantastic. It is so cheering to put your work out there and have people say lovely things about it. Keeps you going and inspires further ideas and plans. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">A couple of days ago I managed to waste lots of time fiddling with an early morning doodle to create this repeat pattern. There is something very satisfying about a repeating pattern. Being a doodle there are some slightly dodgy moments in the repeat but it has kindled a desire to create some more. I also discovered on You Tube a far easier way of repeating patterns on photoshop so the world is now my oyster and I am itching to get going but school work is the priority for the next couple of days otherwise I will have classrooms full of children and no idea of what to teach them!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I have spent quite a few months putting together 20 designs for printing as greeting cards. I have finally had them printed and after the excitement of them arriving and packaging them into cello bags I now realise that I need to start selling them and this is mine and many other artists greatest downfall. I have started to load them into my <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/LettuceCelery" target="_blank">etsy</a> shop and it feels really good to finally get some work out there. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I have also entered some work into the OhhDeer competition with one design <a href="http://ohhdeer.com/competition/seam-there-done-that/11208/feed-birds?product=tshirt" target="_blank">here</a> and another <a href="http://ohhdeer.com/competition/seam-there-done-that/11211/you-can-fly" target="_blank">here</a>. The competition works on your ability to promote the work through social media so any like/shares or tweets would be very much appreciated! I still have one design to do for them but with the Easter holidays in full swing and new chickens to look at I am currently a bit distracted but I think today might be the day for getting things done. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Opening up my shed and clearing a space amongst all the winter storage of junk to start screen printing again equates to the first day of spring for me. My printing career is a very seasonal thing and it makes me so happy to kick off the process all over again. Selecting designs, cutting stencils, preparing the screen, the colour etc etc. Etching was my first love and even though I do love painting there is something about a print process that occupies my mind so beautifully and makes me a lot less anxious than painting does. So, who knows what prints will appear from the shed this year but todays output is the beginnings of a bright pink bunny. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I am going Rococo crazy after watching Waldemar Januszczak in his BBC4 programme Rococo: Travel,Pleasure,Madness. The portraits of Gainsborough's daughters were amazing and I can't quite believe that after many years of looking at art that I have never really looked at those. Next time I am in London I shall head to the National Gallery and soak it all up. The above 7 will end up as a very tiny badge on the dress of a little character who is gracing one of my birthday cards. I need to sort out the background - I was aiming for Pompadour Pink but it seems to have turned out a bit too purple.</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">A very happy New Year to one and all. May 2014 bring exciting adventures and wonderful memories. I have lots of ideas for illustrations and things I would like to try out. This year is going to be the year of the layer. I am going to start using the gouache with a bit more transparency and be braver with my layers and mixing of media. I am also going to do lots more screen printing as that seems to have fallen by the wayside recently. I am always excited at the beginning of a new year and eternally optimistic about the year ahead. Here goes...</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">It has been such a long time since I have been able to get on with some painting. I started this months ago hoping to complete three other designs as well ready for Christmas cards. Unfortunately that plan has gone out of the window and I think I will keep the designs tucked away for next year. School seems to have taken over and I am there far more than I should be. Trouble is I love it as much as I love illustrating but trying to find the balance is tricky. Who knows what next year will bring.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">This weekend I went to <a href="http://www.theprinthaus.org/index.php" target="_blank">The Printhaus</a> in Cardiff to learn about photo emulsion screen printing AT LAST!! I have been wanting to do this for so long. It was a brilliant weekend and I picked up lots of tips for my paper cut screens as well. They run all sorts of courses and their website is well worth a look if you are interested in printmaking.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3377383688042856412.post-32298242505647800952013-07-16T02:43:00.001-07:002013-07-16T02:43:07.059-07:00<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I was reading the blog of an illustrator who was praising the re-discovery of observational drawing and the effect it had had on her work. The strange thing is that before I entered the world of illustration I did nothing but observational drawing but now for some reason I hardly ever draw from observation so the time had come and it has been so good to sit and observe. All those questions I have been trying to solve in my illustrations are beginning to find some answers. I do have two partners in crime aged 6 and 8 and while doing the drawing above I had to contend with their arguing over what makes great art. The 8 year old claims hers was better because she was really looking and drew what was there but the 6 year old felt that the addition of a little girl on a slide and a big splash of water in the pond made for a much better picture. An artistic dilemma I am constantly dealing with!!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I am passionate about paper. Ever since my days as an etcher I have had a love of the perfect paper for the job but recently I have found myself rather comfortably beginning to churn stuff out and felt that I needed to step away from the paper and turn to a canvas. Oh my word, it is so much fun. For a start it is a lot bigger, secondly it really doesn't like gouache on it so you have to paint quite differently and thirdly it just makes a Friday a bit more interesting. I tend to work with gouache as a flat colour but in order to place the paint I had to keep layering up and that is something I want to do more of. I still love my paper but this just reminds me of how easy it is to keep doing stuff that works and how much you learn if you step away from the easy option.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I did this 'Sweet Dreams' in response to Illustration Friday's theme of 'sweet'. I haven't done an illustration friday for ages but it is always good to turn to when you are having a bit of a blank moment and just need to make something, anything, rather than do nothing and worry that you are doing nothing!</span></div>

The Pick Me Up festival in Somerset House was visually really exciting. I do love a bit of screen print and there was an awful lot at Pick Me Up. I managed to finally sit down after two days and spend an hour making a newspaper with <a href="http://theloop-news.com/" target="_blank">The Loop</a>. This is my front page. It was so much fun coming up with ideas really really quickly and the joy of making something just for the sake of making it. I haven't done that for quite a while.</span></div>

I wasn't very happy with this when I went to bed but now as I look at it with fresh eyes it isn't quite as bad as I thought. It is the result of rushing and being distracted so next week when all is calm again, children are back in school, routines kick off, I shall return to this little chap and paint him as he should be.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">I did some illustration workshops last week for World Book Day and the children (and teachers!) were brilliant asking lots of great questions and producing some lovely work. These pictures are from Year 2 and 3. They drew fairy tale/nursery rhyme characters reading their books in a library. See if you can spot some of the characters Rapunzel, Little Red Riding Hood, Humpty Dumpty, Prince Charming, Pinocchio...they are all there somewhere!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">Life is very busy at the moment but unfortunately it is not in the illustration world! It is full on in the school I work at and I have been making costumes for the school production for what seems like months. But, I have squeezed in a bit of my own work and I now have four new cards in my etsy shop <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/LettuceCelery" target="_blank">Lettuce Celery</a>. I would love you all to go take a look and if you like what you see please tell your friends! Slowly but surely I am building up the designs in the shop and I have a few more that I hope to paint up in the next couple of weeks. Next term will be a lot calmer so watch out for a BURST of illustration activity!</span></div>
