Scribbles.

So I,ve been experimenting with my new Graphics tablet =) and I actually really like this scribbly colouring =P I think I'll play with it some more .

The Great Relax.

My first long weekend without anything major planned =) and it was great! although admittedly I didn't just sit around doing nothing, We Blitzed the house so we shouldn't have to do that again for a while. I arranged for a dog behaviourist to visit (later today actually) just to check if its something I'm doing wrong that's making Rosie bark so much, I've rebuild over 1/2 of my website and it should be online again by this evening =) long time no see or what! Additionally I have sorted out my room so that I can use the laptop in here in comfort (just testing the new layout this minute =P ) And lastly we finally put up the shelves we bought a few weeks ago. Its nice I feel like I really accomplished something this weekend.
So I didn't actually paint this this month, but I've not posted it yet and comments are always welcome. =) Its a sketch/watercolour of my dogs as I see them. Sam the white one is a bit of a scaredy cat but dos'nt like anyone to know, and Rosie (brown and fluffy) is the nosyest dog we have ever had, I swear she would jump off a clif just to see what was at the bottom. She has a bit of a barking problem that I'm hoping to sort out sooner rather than later.

Over and Out for now.

So my dog seems to be jealous of my laptop...

I don't know if thats common in Jack Russle types, But she definately has issues with something other than her taking up knee room. She keeps giving me baleful looks from the end of the bed.

So Im hoping to post some sketches from the Challenge this weekend, I'm going to scan them in tommorow and as long as they havent got something seriously wrong with them I'll post then afterwards.

In other News we raised £50 in a coffee morning for children in need today. which was a lot more than i expected as there are only 10 people in the office =D

Catch you laters Aligators!

Opinions Welcome!

Im posting this image with the hopes of feedback before I refine it, I have admittedly gotten a little carried away when colouring what is really a very rough sketch. I'm thinking I should expand the image to the left possibly doubling the width to make it more of a landscape shape, and add in the rest of the poker players and also the prize pile in the middle. A concept I like is to add all of the zodiac characters, although that could get cluttered. =/ anyway any suggestions are welcome and will be concidered during the later stages of the image. My personal Favourite is the Dragon, although the sheep has an interesting expression.

A Challenge?

I found this challenge in a few different places, but the one that
inspired me to have a go was on 'The Drawing Board' forums, see
link 'HERE'

This may take me some time as I have a few other commitments at
the moment as well, but I'd like to give it a go, just dont be
suprised if they end up being mostly sketched rather than finished
images.

I have copied the rules and list from that forum post to here:

The Rules:
1. Make 100 pics each pic having a theme listed below. Each pic
should have ONE and only ONE theme to it, for it to count.
2. No time limit so have fun.
3. The main picture should be drawn but not limited to. For all
fair purposes, people are allowed to use their paint programs and
photo shop to create the pic.
3a. Pics should be of own artistic ability. You may not edit
photos, or break any other rules set out in the dA etiquette
policy. Your pics can be anything from sketches and doodles to
great master pieces. Just have fun with it.
4. The list below is to be placed somewhere in your journal for
others to see that: A) You are in the challenge B) What you have completed.
5. Make sure to update this list and check off what is done and
make a link to the pic.
6. In the comments for your art work note if it is part of the
