Lesson learned- I hated this one at first. I screwed up the line drawing of her face and tail, got pissed off, and threw it back in my bag. It kicked around in there for a few days like an ugly tattoo that won't fade, until i finally decided to give it another go and improvise over my mistakes.
I really need to start coloring some of these mofos in. The drawing part is easy... the colored pencil bit takes a long time and cramps my hand.
Does anyone remember doing those symmetry patterns at school? The ones we did with just a pencil and a ruler and no curves, just straight lines.
(There is probably a word for these patterns, but I can't remember what it is. If anyone knows, please remind me!)
Well, I thought I'd have a go at doing this digitally in photoshop, and TBH, it wasn't as hard as I thought it might be. I started off making the original piece, then flipped the images around, messed around with colours, then moved on to distorting it.
I had lots of fun making these.

I made this in to a card for my Frank Sinatra-loving friend's birthday. I normally avoid drawing people at all costs, but gave it a go for this...

I wanted to try out a few of the leaf tangles I'd come across, along with a couple I came up with (someone else is bound to have done them before me, but for now, they're out of my head). I've used Verdigogh, Ash Leaf and Pokeleaf. Other than the Pokeleaf, the others all look like Australian natives and I plan to do a very Aussie style tangle incorporating these in the future.
