Last Sketchbook Project Pages

A couple more pages from my Sketchbook Project, which I managed to finish and which is now winging its way over to Brooklyn NY. I was trying out my new Rotring ink cartridge pen here, plus watersoluble crayons.

About My Art....

I've had a go at just about everything in the past...Card making, Art Journals, Collage/Mixed Media, Photography, Papercraft, Embroidery, and Scrapbooking.

I've moved onto fine art in the last few years, and my main interests are Landscape, Botanical and Wildlife art. As I get older I'm becoming more and more passionate about nature and conservation issues, and find these are the subjects I want to study and paint.

I've never had any art lessons at all, so I've learnt from books and videos. I like watercolours and coloured pencils (both the dry type and water-solubles).
