Life Events, Waiting for Baby Ruben, Amanda Webster

I've just spent the last two weeks at my daughter's place awaiting the arrival of a new grandchild.  What was expected to be a three day stay turned into an almost two week stay as the baby decided to stay inside just a little longer.  I did heaps of sketches while I was there and these are a couple of my daughter and the baby that I really like. I have lots more on my blog (link at the side) if you want to look.  All these are in a cheap A5 sketchbook with unipin pen and watercolour.

 

 

Flowers, Jug of Spring Flowers, Amanda Webster

I picked a random assortment of flowers and popped them in a jug.  I decided to do a challenge from Veronica Lawlor's book which was to use ink and nibs of varying sizes.  It seemed the easiest way to go as the detail was overwhelming for me.  I watered down some ink and added the shading at the end.  I think I like it ok
