The Pencil's Have Been Out Again....

I have been a little busy again this week with my little ones going back to school (only for 3 day mind you) and me starting to help more at the infant school, with a collage course looming I have been absolutely everywhere.
I did find time to sit with my pencil's again the other day but with being so busy I just haven't had five minutes to pop by, I give warning that this is not the best photo, I couldn't tell you what happened to her really, well I can it's on the wonk and I have cut half her hair off (bad bad photo sorry).... I will try and take a better one when I've finished last night's little play....
Oh it's very therapeutic all this drawing and colouring, mind you I have always liked colouring....

I might have to find just a journal for my faces as I am getting a little carried away ;-D...

It's all abit addictive...

I have really found it hard not to play today, I am what you say hooked on these figures, this little lady started out this morning, but with plans to take my little ones swimming she had to wait for her colours....

So on returning home and after planning what we were having for tea sorted, I armed myself with a cuppa and my pencils and off into the sunshine I went.... And after a few moments my Fairy got her wings of colour...

Where did that come from????

I don't really know where my creative flo has just come from, but I am loving my pencil and my coloured pencil's..... Just a little bit....

I've been at my dad's today with my little people, no thought of any creativeness but when we got home, my little angel's decided to let's say play up, so armed with a cuppa tea my art journal and my pencil's I went and sat in the sun and tried to chill for a while, to the point that I lost track of time, this is what happened...


and this...





Then I found I couldn't stop so this happened tooooo!!! I think this lady needs finishing a little more but thought I'd let her show her face.....







I'm not sure where to take them now but really pleased with how they have turned out, only thing is I just want to keep drawing and colouring... I think I have found something/ a medium here that I like...




Maybe you could let me know what you think and any ideas of where I could take them from here...




Hope you like (Sorry if Mermaid offends, she might have to put a bikini on)....

A little bit of crafty happened

Look I PLAYED!!!

I know it's not much but its a little bit of crafting, well I put the book together then splodged some water colour over it, I still need to splodge some paint on the cover but hey it's a start....


This is thanks to a YouTube video by Teesha Moore on how to make a 16 pg journal, she has some other great video's up which take you through her journal techniques... well worth a watch especially if in the learning side of art journalling like me!!! I'm still scared of doing it though but will try and put my butt into gear and get a wriggle on lol ;-).....

I think I'm still here,,,,

I just wanted to stop by and say SORRY for not being about.... I feel I have completely lost my way here at the mo, my scrappy time has really been on hold, well it just don't seem to be there for me.... and I have been quite busy thinking of what I want to do with my life..... So I have been looking at college courses etc and doing some voluntary work, which I guess has had an effect on my scrapping or lack of it :0(.... Hopefully things will get back to normal soon and I get my mojo back..... X everything I think I'll need all the help I can get ;0)....
