Nativity Characters Christmas Card Series 2012

I completely forgot to post this when I put up all of the nativity stuff earlier in the year- I know that I've done a post with the wise men cards before but this is the complete set of cards using various different nativity characters.

The Wind In The Willows- Character Design Process

Part of one of my recent college projects was to design a book jacket for the well known children's story 'The Wind in the Willows'. Here are some photos from the initial stages of the project showing my character design process. It's really important to me to have my characters just right so I spend a lot of time drawing and re-drawing them until I'm happy with them!

Mother's Day Hand Print Painting 2013

I did some hand painting with my six month old niece for Mother's day presents. She was more interested in trying to tip the paint pot upside down but they went down quite well with Mum and Granny :-)

Wise Men 3.D 'set'

Here is the wise men scene from the previous post made into a little 3.D 'set'. A bit like I did at the beginning of this year for the cloud appreciation society poster that you can see here.

Hello Kitty Cushion

 

Whilst I was child-minding over the summer holidays we thought that we would have a crafty day, the girl I was looking after is a huge Hello Kitty fan so we spent the day making this Hello Kitty cushion. I drew out the design and helped a bit with cutting out all the pieces but she did nearly all of the sewing herself and I think that she did a fantastic job :-)
