11th July 2015

I did a doodle today, restarting my Nature's Couture project. Elephants, baby ones, have caught my eye today after seeing a picture of painted Indian elephants. I was inspired by the rich pigment paint colours and oriental flower patters, making the beautiful giants even more beautiful.

10th July 2015

I did a doodle today as the last of my reflection theme. A little different today, how a reflection acts as a distortion as water ripples the image into a beautiful mess. Uniformity blurred, but beauty unaffected.

9th July 2015

I did a doodle today  to look at the bigger reflections, a city built on the water's edge. The lights patterning the night, the buildings towering in their stillness, with the street below reflecting the noise and movement of city life.

Reflecting a contradiction, opposites making up the entity.

8th July 2015

I did a doodle today of just the reflection, the subject out of site (off the page). It's all gone upside down, as that's what reflections do... turn things back on what they are reflecting.

7th July 2015

I did a doodle today using a previous doodle of my little girl. I have adapted it to capture her lying down on the edge of the water, hands and hair breaking the water's edge. Another for my 'reflections' set...

6th July 2015

I did a doodle today, a little random but still in my 'reflection' theme. I thought I'd just experiment with Illustrator tools a bit.... and just thought this looked particularly bonkers.

My reflection of a sheep, a watery swirl fabulously distorting the image of the grazing sheep above the pond.

Bonkers.

5th July 2015

I did a doodle today following on from my 'ping' moment yesterday. I am going to spend this week doodling reflections and today I have started with a lighthouse shining its' light over the perilous rocks.
