Rabbit Dreams
Coloured Pencil and Ink on 280 gsm Glass Ivory Paper -
(40cm x 60cm) Worked on this one for over a week, through the wee small hours of the mornings.
All my art is cathartic, it’s how I balance my life, creating is my reason to go on. When I’m up I create, when I’m down I create, creativity is my balance. I did this as one of my first experiments into coloured pencil art, and found the whole ‘colouring in’ process so very relaxing and calming. I couldn’t help but feel happyness and joy while doing this.
I spent every moment I could as a child, laying on my tummy, drawing, colouring…......aaaaaaaaah
Nothing has changed, I’m still laying on my tummy, drawing, colouring (lol)
