Did this wee sketch last night for my brothers birthday card. The whole family went to Ireland in the summer for a week, first time we've been together like that (not counting Christmas' etc) since we were kids, so it was a great giggle. This was done with ink and dip pen, didn't even attempt to try and get the rich colour of sunsets and golden grasses so just went for the rosy red look. My poor family are very long suffering as they get a picture for every occassion, especially when money is a bit tight!

Made me smile this one! My family must groan at Christmas when they open their lovely sketch! Colour really works, nice work :-)
ReplyDeleteHeehee, I"m hoping that they think its all an investment, and all the paintings will be worth a fortune when I'm dead and gone!
ReplyDeleteI think they are real lucky getting a sketch, what more could they want?
ReplyDeleteI love my sketches/paintings from you! just wish the rest of the family would stop nicking them from me!!! Cins xx
