A First Foray into Fan Art

I've treated my poor knackered writing muse to a well-earned rest and decided to give my artistic muse a bit of an airing, and this is what she has come up with ...

Title - Hunters
Media - Pastels on Ingres Paper



Hope you like!

Hey there
I'm glad you liked it. It was something very different to what I normally paint and draw which is mainly animals (paticularly horses), and on the odd occasion I do people, it's always children so this was a big step outside the comfort zone for me; but I loved doing it and although I'm aware it's not perfect, I've had some really nice comments and constructive criticism, to make me feel confident enough to try again at some point in the future!

I can feel my writing muse rattling her cage though ... I think she'll be making an appearance soon :)

I love looking at other artists' work. Do you have any of your work on the internet?

Thanks for commenting, really great to hear from you x

No, I don't have anything out there on the net. I do have some friends who have been pestering me to do a portrait of our boys. Time is not on my side...I teach art (of all things!) to PreK to 5th grade and it really keeps me busy, busy, busy!!!

Oh wow, I can imagine how that keeps you busy - but I'm still going to join your pestering friends, I'd love to see you do a portrait of our lovely boys!
