Past illustrations for my Picture Book:

The story line & the images of this picture book has change Alot! So i'm puting up how it looked before because i am currently working on brand new images & plot at the moment. I will be uploading some of the NEW work once I've done more!♥

Would love to hear from you! :)


Sketching!!




1# Just been sketching alot lately. I am at the moment working on some personal work of my own, but the process leading up to that is taking longer than i thought, but all's good:) Excited to get started. 
2# Been experimenting a lot too, its Awesomely Messy Lol. Ideas are going crazy, trying new things are always fun, even though it takes a while & some things don't turn out the way you plan - it's just a process of getting deeper in discovery!!:D
3# My room needs a little bit of a clean up - my sisters dog rummaged my bin again! Haha:)

1# Illustrating Children's Picture Books





After phoning Exclusive Books & them telling me that it'll take 10 days for it to arrive, i was eager to get it but then totally forgot about it. Then two days ago they phoned, EEEEkk!! I was So Excited! i have SO many Art books but No children's illustration books & although this was pricy. . It was worth the buy:) To think of it, it would've been abit cheaper to have ordered it from Amazon.com .
Definitely going to be buying More books like this:) 
If any of you have any suggestions on some good ones, Please leave me a comment:) 
So now, i'm busy ready it & getting some Amazing knowledge on the industry etc. 
Haha, Happy Reading to me!

Project sketches: Bird in Colour ♥


This is my bird so far, i'm real happy with the how the colours came out etc Just thinking of the book, cant make out what it says Haha! & it does say something. Have to do something about that. This is a project & well, sometimes you gotta do things you haven't done before:) As you can see from all my other work that i use INK with everything, i think its just that book that i did that wasn't. .But there was something about this assignment that got me thinking. .

i really think its how free you let your hand be. You basically throwing little pieces of who you are out on your pages. . although its what i personally think. . it sounds pretty awesome. 
Look i got up nice & early to get finished with it:) 
Its been a blast! No pressure, just fresh lines & paint 

but from your perspective what do you think? 
Is there any areas that i should or can touch up on?


Its raining here & the winds going crazy but its a Beautiful day! #Blessed
Hope you're having one to:)

Watercolour experiment




I have many art books and have read them but after a trip to the library and snatching up a sketching book, i began reading it and i must say it was the first that i couldn't put down. I was like, i need to buy this book:) Dont think i can find it her in Cape Town, i hope that i will be able to.
It was so interesting and so helpful plus there are 38 or so projects for you to do.

This is just a watercolour experiment, my bible (yes, its pink) was lying on my shelf and i thought that i should just give it a try and do my best:)
