Some illustrations of Edinburgh I had completed before Christmas. x

In the spirit of Christmas, I've produced a quirky little card for my family, which I'll be printing out and giving to all the relatives. Hope you like him! x

Thought I'd also mention that I've just completed 2 evening courses in Jewellery and web design. Fingers crossed I'll have my own website up and running soon! I found the jewellery course really rewarding. I made mum's Christmas present, a brooch, and 2 necklaces from sterling silver, along with a ring and pendant from copper. The course provided me with the opportunity to learn a lot of the basic techniques in silver jewellery making.

Ok, since it's been flipping ages since I last posted on this here blog, I felt I should redeem myself in some way. I have been busy, I'll have you know. Currently working at Edinburgh's Paper Tiger for the festive season. They sell lots of pretty cards, books and stationary. Just my cup of tea. Have a sneaky peak here:

On my days off I've been doing a wee bit of painting on the walls of a new restaurant on Lothian road, Illegal Jacks. The food there is top notch!

Before all this, I had the opportunity to paint on the bar top at Victoria, a bar on Leith Walk. The project was a collaboration with multiple artists, who teamed up to paint, draw, collage and scribble over the bar top, so a glass bar top could be added later. Above are pictures of the work in progress, as I think the bar top is finally finished now.
