Good morning Bluesky. Wishing I had made coffee before I sat down but I didn’t. Another sketching and writing day.

Today I'm digitally coloring a drawing of a duck.

Flower watercolour from 1987 (all from the same garden as now)

Another flower piece from 1987. I worked hard on flower paintings at that time, enjoying doing them but pleased to get sales to pay the bills! This and the last one posted are scanned from film photos of the paintings taken at the time.

Good morning #bluesky
I hand make these decorative dishes. I make them from air dry clay then painted and varnish, so they are purely art, but you can pop a trinket or two in.

My watercolour of irises in a blue jug with a shell from 1987 (sold)

Here's one of my old watercolours of irises and other flowers in my favourite blue-tinted glass jug. I must have forgotten to photograph the original before I framed it because there are reflections in the glass. Not too bad a photo though in spite of that.

A lovely article about The Cookbook shop Edinburgh from Bite magazine and a lovely photo of my tinket dishes!! If you are near Edinburgh gonin and have a look around it's an Aladdin's case of cookbooks. Dishes also available here

Digital art of a blue cloudy sky. The clouds are fluffy with a mix of some geometric sharp shapes. Under the clouds there is a luminous star with colorful sparkles above it.

A shimmering circle of light surrounds the upraised arms of a woman who weaves light from the battlements of a castle. She wears an elegant dress of black and purple, and even in small detail it's obvious she's dripping in gold jewelry. Below an orange dragon with a yellow scaled belly blasts a stream of flame into the air. The gout isn't aimed at the armed men below who run in terror as their shield their eyes and bodies. A wall of white flames climbs the castle wall behind the dragon bathing the foreground in intense light. None of the flame consumes the surrounding bare trees or tents—evidence of a siege in progress but now broken.

Detail from STRONGHOLD featuring a Sunrunner weaving light from the top of castle battlements. Below an orange dragon cracks its maw to send a line of fire into the sky.

The magic in Melanie Rawn's Sunrunner trilogies involves weaving light, but just what is that faradhi on the battlements casting? There are clues to what's going on in the illustration. 1/2

Tonight’s work in progress. I think this one’s gonna be pretty damn good.

Finally a color palette I'm happy with: green + carmine + burnt umber :)

Pencil drawing of a Regency shop front with an elegant bow window between two doorways, the one on the right open and giving a view into the shop where two customers can be seen. The shop window is full of goods for sale. Above the doorways are fanlights. The sign over the window reads "Betty Cafe Tea Rooms".

10th birthday of this drawing of Betty's Cafe & Tea Rooms, Stonegate, York. Where I used to get my Fat Rascals & take visitors for tea & cake. Sadly closed 2022 & now a bar.

i call it 'working'

Busy planting up the pots and containers in the garden so I can paint from them in the summer sunshine. This oil was sold in 2022 and most years I prop up my easel here for some new work.

Happy 20th, #Okami! Here is a repost of some of my Okami-related works.

I hate to ask this and I don't do this often, but I had some bills go through that unfortunately put me at $16 in my bank account.

I don't want to just ask for assistance because I have difficulty with it, and I had planned to sell this ACEO anyway. Asking $65, covers shipping within the UIS.
