I have still not had time to sit and draw I really must make a point of it the weather has been so wet over the last week the kids are in the house and then they want to use all drawing things to or if I go to make a cup of tea they decide to help me by drawing on my picture in the past I have been able to hide these unhelpful pencil strokes other time I have had to start again.
I have a large drawing of tigers started and I am waiting untill I have space in the house again to get back to it finish it.

Wildlife art and mags

Hi it has been a while since I have added to this blog but I have been reading my artists magazine which has had a re vamp and is now so much more interesting to read I am reading the Artist and Illustrator it has some good article in it and talks about events round the country I enjoy the section by the botanical artist Sandrine Maugy she shows how to draw in different times of the year and uses a range of art materials so there is something to interest every one.
I found an article regarding affordable web site page for wild life artists Marwell International Wildlife Art Society are offering a web page for £55. for their members to become a member is £35. per year .
Prices go up as of 1st April.
I expect this is good value if you do not want to have a big web site of your own.
Just going to check out the site for myself I am not needing to the offer as I design site for a living.
I like to see what other artists are producing and maybe get inspiration let me know of site that you like to visit.

I will be posting photos of my art work for all to see I have a passion for drawing animals I like to use coloured pencil because I can get a rich range of textures.
I went to college and gained an HND in graphic design but what I really like to do is draw pet and wildlife subjects if I had access to screen printing facilities near by I wold love to start producing prints again .

Today is a nice relaxing Sunday my two older kids are away with my mum for the day and my 3 year old is happy to potter around playing the wii so for a while I can get some work done.
My dilemma is always when I have good light I would want to draw or should I just do my computer work today the computer has won!
