Murder on The Orient Express

Poirot’s most harrowing case the Murder on the Orient Express, for this piece I went with the David Suchet version (like the Death on the Nile), although I haven’t seen the Branagh version I really loved how this one was shot and the tension between him and the suspects especially that final scene! 

National Zoo Lovers Day

Today is national Zoo Lovers Day, I made this quick piece to celebrate those zoos who do wonderful conservation work in preventing some of our rarest species from becoming extinct. i've always loved going to zoos especially when I was little, some of my favourite places were, Chester zoo and Twycross Zoo.

National Handmade Day

Today is National Handmade Day' so I thought I'd have a go at a little something I think some parts worked better than others but adding collage is always fun to explore. I really like trying different crafts out, I always used to make cards for my family even when I was little, and although I have attempted to learn to knit a few times crotchet is still a craft that alludes me.

Throwback Thursday Goldfish

                          

For this week's 'Throwback Thursday' I wanted to share this piece of an orange goldfish, made using digital drawing (mainly the pen and brush tool in photoshop) then as a final touch I added some photographs with effects to add textures and details.

Find A Rainbow

Today is National 'Find a Rainbow Day' I really like the idea of celebrating the little things in nature which can make you smile. I'm trying to do that more lately and hopefully can get outside a bit more when the weather improves.

National Ferret Day

In celebration of national ferret day here is a little piece I made from an ink sketch which I coloured digitally then added some textures with photoshop effects over the top. 

Badgers Amongst the Bluebells

This is a piece from last week which I've been wanting to do for a while as I want to start looking at placing animals within landscapes. I also wanted to create more detailed pieces too. I always love creating pieces with nature and wildlife as it really helps me relax a little. This piece was made from sketches, digital painting and collage effects in photoshop.
