Bath time for Beev! 🛁 (Updated version with duckies qwak qwak 🐥). . Inspired by my 'beaver patrols' in Fernie BC where I observed beavers in their natural habitat. They are such intelligent and curious little fellows, and they're so good at making things!

Lovely evening of fashion collage experimentation with @csvpa_bafashion #csvpaxfitz for #camlates at @fitzmuseum_uk 🤗

Day 14: #illustrateApril ➡️ "wanted to be when I grew up". . When I was a kid, I really wanted to be a police sketch artist. I was fascinated with both art and crime, so it seemed like the perfect job! . I sometimes wonder why my parents didn't bat an eyelid at their child subscribing to a serial killer magazine when other girls were reading Just17 🤔. . Criminology just interested me a lot more than articles about how to get boys to like me 😒 Also the serial killer magazine subscription came with a free binder - who doesn't like a freebie... . Have skipped a few days of the illustrate April challenge due to being a busy bee 🐝 Will try to do the missing days later on. . What did you want to be when you grew up? Or still want to be when you grow up 😉

In @mrdoodle #DoodleRoom as part of the #senseofspace pop-up installation in Exchange Square, @broadgatelondon. What a fun day out - also visited Spitalfields City Farm and fell in love with every animal 🤗 See my Insta Stories for cuteee animals 👀 . 📷 @dianastainton while holding a wriggling small child 👍

Day 11: #illustrateApril ➡️ "something someone does that makes me smile." Kind gestures make me smile, especially when I'm not feeling great and they are towards me. . So my 'someone' is anyone that brings me a cup of tea or gives me a hug when I've been in bed all day with a migraine. It means so much to me 😚

Day 10: #illustrateApril ➡️ "pet peeve". . I have an aversion to noise. It's so hard to find peace and quiet - but my pet peeve is the individuals that force their music onto others e.g. on public transport. Never good music is it! & it means I can't read quietly to myself because I have an inability to think or concentrate with background noise. . My neighbour's TV is audible right now, cars driving on wet tarmac, a van engine idling outside, and the hum of a generator. Vibrations affect me too. I long to live in the woods and only hear birds, rain, and the odd awoooooo!
I work using both digital & traditional methods of illustration, producing original art (paintings and drawings), altered journals, greeting card designs, book and magazine illustrations, custom gifts & hand-painted ceramics.
