seasonal doodles inspired by machine lace patterns

festive ideas

went to a 'design in sustainability' workshop at future factory this morning, which has got my little brain ticking over all sorts of new ideas. just need to find some time to put these into action...

oh and i drew the christmassy jumper above for a couple of cards that may be winging their festive way around and about.

present ideas

design for gift voucher with lace inspired border for debbie.
amount is going to be hand stamped onto card so each one is all special and individual...

furby doodle

i finally invested in a graphics tablet last week... a furby was the obvious choice for my first drawing because;

• the tablet smells like one. (identically electrical, fuzzy, warm and plastic-y)
• i'm equally technologically advanced. (i.e. dated)
• and i didn't think the drawing could look any worse than the reality??!

brilliant ‘bad’ drawing with stories can be found here

look who i found lingering...

old biro sketch of ben that jumped out of an old sketchbook and bit me. not sure how i feel about this...

but the reason i was trawling old sketchbooks (if anyone wonders.. ) is because i'm thinking of submitting one to take part in an exhibition at the usher gallery in lincoln..
