Some colouring pages I did for The Black Kookaburra’s recent Kickstarter. Took me like 3 hours because I did them the slowest and stupidest way possible, lol, but we live and learn and they came out okay, so here we are. These will probably be available for sale as a digital download for a dollar […]

Having finally realised that markers really are my medium of choice for The Art Making, I bought myself a set of 6 skin tone copic markers a few weeks back. I haven’t made much time to practise, but even so I’m pleased at how intuitive they making colouring. I can *draw* okay, when I put

I’ve been doing quite a bit of drawing for the Inklets recently, and it’s lots of fun. I’m okay with black and white drawings – this was always my strength in art at school, too – but colour? That’s another story. But then I had this idea as I was falling asleep the other night

So, I’m a little late with this one this week, but better late than never, right? Ha. This week was, per force, Inklet illustration week. Yes, that’s right! It’s time to start work on the 2021 Inklets already! The line-up has been confirmed, and now it’s onto the first stage of production, which means writing
Made-It… Tuesday? Oops. Read More »
Well, I’ve done some creative things this week, but mostly they are making graphics and suchlike, and writing stories. I was completely slack and didn’t write on the 15th/16th/17th, which puts me one behind for my 10 stories in 20 days challenge, but meh, whatever. I might be able to catch that up this coming

Schools essentially closed to all but necessary students on Tuesday. Wednesday afternoon my school announced that staff could (and should) work from home unless rostered on for supervision. So today was my first day trying to sort out what this all-four-of-us-at-home-all-day thing looks like. My husband has a desk downstairs in the main living/kitchen area.
Ermagersh, mind blown. Thankfully, le small daughter has PLENTY of crayons lying around (which, let’s be honest, she mostly BREAKS because SHE TOO HATES THE LOOK AND FEEL OF CRAYONS) so OF COURSE I tried this out. Tune in Monday for an epic crayon coloury Made-It 😉 Ha. (And yes: I will definitely be teaching
How To *Actually* Colour With Crayons Read More »
I’ve been kind of binge watching art videos this last week, I’ll be honest. I mentioned on Monday that I’ve really been missing making physical art in the last year or two. I used to draw A LOT in high school (in years 11 and 12, I carried a sketch book around with my notebook

Recently discovered that the new work laptops convert to a tablet, AND they have photoshop installed, AND they come with a stylus. Cue my lifelong (or at least, internet-long) desire to learn to paint digitally. I used to draw in high school, and I’ve been missing that the last little while–part of the reason why
