New lockdown drawing on a wooden pebble!!

 Hi all,

Just a quick share of my latest artwork. I've decided recently to try to stop being glued to my phone of an evening and use my free time a little more wisely to be creative!

I got some wooden pebbles a few weeks ago with a view of doing some pyrography (new treat to myself although my husband refers to it as a posh soldering iron!) I've still not gotten around to the pyrography although I have discovered that I love to draw on them! This is my first attempt, it was drawn completely freehand, I started in the middle with a black pen without sketching it first with pencil and hoped for the best so I'm quite pleased with the results! 

Thanks for looking and I hope that you're all ok and staying well.

Happy Haloween

 Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share my monster stone sketch for Halloween, I did this whilst watching a couple of episodes of shameless and thoroughly enjoyed both the drawing and shameless!

 It will also be my daughters 11th Birthday on Halloween so I have a scavenger hunt planned with plenty of treats and a few Halloween tricks....I'm possibly more excited than the kids!!

Stay safe everyone and I hope you all have a good weekend and enjoy your Halloween at home.

Happy New Year!

Hi everyone. I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas.

I'm officially back at work today although, given the nature of being a freelance designer and loving my job, I've been dabbling throughout most of the festive hols! I even treated myself to a lino cutting kit. I used to love to lino printing as a kid so I've been having fun revisiting my childhood! I've only done a couple of prints so far as practise so not confident enough to post them on here yet!! In the meantime, here's one of my sketches that I drew during the holidays.

I hope that you all have a happy, healthy 2019.

Hi everyone,

Here's my recent drawing, it's a new experimental piece drawn onto a stone (as you do!)
The design follows along the shape of the rock so it looks better in the flesh.

Hope you all have a great weekend 😀

Hello all,

I've been snowed under with (summer!) cross stitch commissions recently but I did manage to get a small amount of drawing done for myself yesterday. I thought I would try my hand at drawing onto a stone (as you do!) Here it is,

I have been wanting to also try a Christmas design onto stone. If I get around to trying one, I will post a photograph of it onto here.

Thanks for looking,

New zentangle doodle!

Hi everyone, I've been in between drawing projects so started a doodle.....the doodle became my new drawing project!! Here it is......

It started life as a quick pencil sketch then I drew over it with a fine point pen. Here is the first photo I took of it (with my phone so it's rather dark)

I can move on with my life now and start a commission drawing for cross stitch gold!!

New drawing...at last!

Hi all. Wow, it has been a long time since my last post hasn't it! I've been super busy working on magazine commissions which, of course is brilliant but it does mean that I've had very little time to commit to the website or my own artwork. Hence, the drawing below has taken me an age to complete! Here it is anyway, daffodil, size approx. a4, polychromo pencils on Stonehenge paper.

Hopefully it won't be so long till my next post!
Thanks for reading,

Owl update

Hello again,

Just a quick update. You may remember a couple of posts ago when I posted this owl drawing. Well, I entered it into a facebook competition and.....it came second! I'm absolutely thrilled although I must admit that I'm such a perfectionist that I was also a little disappointed that it didn't come first! Oh well, practise, practise, practise   :  )

Take care everyone.

Jenny's latest art project

Hello again. I've just realised that I didn't post my latest drawing onto my blog. Here it is anyway. It took what seemed like forever to finish but I enjoyed every minute of it! It's been produced using a black pen and made entirely from dots.

People tell me they can see faces and all sorts of things in this picture. See if you can spot the face. I was studying it for ages before my husband finally pointed it out and now I know it's there I'm finding it kind of freaky! Would have thought I might have noticed it beofre seeing as I was the person who drew it1 Bizarre! Hope you all like it anyway.   :  )

Jenny's latest (dotty) drawing project

Good morning everyone. Just a quick update before I start work with a commission. Here's my latest drawing project, I produced it using dots with a black pen. Hope you all like it....it almost sent me dotty!!  ;  )
