'Moira' - acrylic on salvaged wood. It's not finished - but it was much needed. I've had a rather crappy few days and instead of studying the pancreas, Moira puffed into my head firstly in sketch form, and then into a painting. Based upon the very sensual and overtly sexual 'maid' character from the American horror story 'murder house' series. Enjoy.

Time for some anatomy...

I must apologize for my lack of posts/drawings/paintings. I can assure you all that more will be on the way in a couple of weeks, but at the moment I have anatomy exams in early April and for now revision and study is my priority. I can't wait to get back to painting, I also have some exciting commission work on which I'm looking forward to sharing. 

'Let them eat cake' work in progress. Acrylic on reclaimed wood (the back of an old wardrobe I do believe). It's about 1x1.5 ft in size. Much more to be done, but as I am away for the next 6 days on a course for work, she will have to remain unfinished for now. TBC...

And another from today. Not the best photo - but never mind. (Yes I need to work on my typography)

'The end of Winter' - acrylic on salvaged wood.

I like to use reclaimed pieces of wood to paint on, to give something that otherwise might have ended up on a fire a new lease of life. Only issue being that the surface is usually quite rough, and it's difficult to get a highly polished finish (or it is for me anyways). Practice, practice practice!

Day 5 - post-it not challenge

Painting today did not go well.. therefore I have nothing new to show other than this. Bare with me, tomorrow is another day!

Top - Acrylic on wood "I will bury you"
Bottom - Day four of the Gloop Collective 'post-it challenge'

It's the misadventures of Octopus Girl. Or maybe it's just day three of the https://www.facebook.com/gloopcollective 'Gloop Collective' post-it challenge!

This is day 2 of the post-it challenge. I know I should have got some painting done, but I've been so busy today with domestic crap that I really didn't have the chance.Pah!

Today marks the beginning of the 'post-it' challenge with the guys from the 'Gloop' collective (check them out on facebook. It's fairly simply, just do a drawing a day on a post-it. I'm not really loving this one - but - it's a start and I forced myself to post it. Sooo, although I've not done any painting - instead spending some quality time with my lovely little family - I have no excuse to not be uploading one of these for the next 31 days. Enjoy!
