It’s so fun creating Art in the Happy House…Today I have been playing around in Photoshop after being sent a book called ‘Big Book of Fashion Illustration by Martin Dawber’ its fantastic and really inspiring, so I thought I would create something of my own’ this lady above was photographed from a large bound book of the Illustrated London News that my Nan gave to me years ago, it is dated 1855 and is filled with reports on Florence Nightingale and the Crimean War. I have added colour and a few finishes with my flowers and hearts and some butterflies…I am really impressed with it – just shows you, how books can inspire!
This next piece above was something that my Freddy created, he used date stamps and drew a scene of London around them….so fantastic don’t you think! I took it into Photoshop and put a blue background in with a few more finishes and voila!
Hope you like these pieces and it inspires you to create something today…
it looks great 🙂
Wow, these are creative! I’ve finally finished my little ‘make do and mend’ bag, thanks to your inspiration, and I’ve put a link to you on my blog post about the bag (on the ‘Twas on a Wednesday evening post). Thanks for all your great ideas and the wonderful presentation of your blog.
