Dipsy

Scratch art, inktense pencils and coloured pencil on Scratchbord
 
Dipsy is my beloved little mate and has been my constant companion over the last 14 years and hopefully fo a few more years to come. As you can see, I have become quite addicted to the scratch art lately and am hoping, when time permits, to create a whole series of artworks combining the scratch art with the coloured pencils - so much fun!!! :)

Asking for Directions

Scratch art, Inktense and coloured pencils on Ampersand Scratchbord.
 
I have been flat out with commissions lately, but managed to squeeze in one little fun piece for the holidays. What fun I had with this piece and when time permits, I would love to churn out an entire series of whimsical pieces featuring scratch art and coloured pencils. I love the combination of strong contrasts and vibrant colours that can be achieved, and whilst it is slow going, I love every minute of the process. Wherever you are travelling in life, hope this puts a smile on your face :)
