Happy Friyay! Whilst I am on my course, I'm sharing an oldie, mainly because the weather has been terrible (rain, wind, cold...) and it's feeling like winter today 🥶
Any new colour suggestions you'd like to see?

I'm going to be a bit quiet over the next few weeks (posting sporadically). I've decided to take part in an art course. It's good fun so far!

Hope you've had a great weekend! Here's a piece I produced for World Book Day. I felt like it needed something extra so I've added a few extra details and a quote, which you can see a glimpse of 👧🏾📚

Throwback Thursday when I produced this space themed jigsaw puzzle for WerkShoppe Puzzles.
Initially on the illustration there were catstronauts, then I swapped a couple of them for pooches. So here's my 'Pets in Space' 🐶🐱🪐

I don't know how to stop a large majority of AI images popping up on Pinterest feed. If anyone knows how to do this, I'd love to know.

Throwback Thursday when I produced these cute bugs for Sainsbury's to go on kidswear.
I've tweaked the original colours giving them a bright autumnal colour palette and also laid out the bugs as if the illustration were to be used for a nonfiction kid's book.
