For some long time I have had a lovely tin of Derwent watercolour pencils languishing at the back of the cupboard. The pencil points were sharp and pristine. This afternoon I finally I gave them an outing, as I sat and chatted with some clever blogging crafters who were pursuing various projects.
For the most part my craft seemed to be confined to sampling cake. However, there was a bit pencil scribbling and washing, and creating of funny coloured blobs (all with my tongue sticking out of the side of my mouth). Nothing discernible really. I really haven't drawn anything - except for the curtains - for the longest time.
Finally these rather sketchy guys appeared this evening. I somehow think the birds spell trouble - they look like a bunch of rabble.
I love your birds. What about a fabric with them playing around...cute!:)
ReplyDeletethose are great! the birds have such a wonderful look to them :D full of personality
ReplyDeleteIf they were mine, I'd sent those birds straight off to spoonflower. I really like them! If they cause you trouble, I (and pretty much everyone else reading the blog)would be happy to mind them for you. Show us more!
ReplyDeleteI love the little pussy cat at the top - he has so much character!
ReplyDeleteI'm liking that rabble!
ReplyDeleteWOW! They are so great, why do people who draw always think they can't? And non-drawers gush over a scribble? Send em my way, i'd frame them. Or sending to Spoonflower is a good idea.
ReplyDeleteOooh...yes, they're rabble alright, but the kind that you'd be crazy to ignore! Love it. :-)
ReplyDeleteWow! I didn't get to see them before you left. You have hidden talents Liesl!
ReplyDeleteThose are lovely, I like the loose, sketchy feel of them.
ReplyDeleteI have some of those pencils somewhere that I bought years ago for a treat. I should haul them out again.
I'm so impressed! They're fantastic new friends!
ReplyDeleteYou're such a super star quietly talented wonder! I have only two words to say to you:
ReplyDeleteSpoon
Flower
Oh, and don't stop drawing now you've started again...
They are beautiful, don't know who or what Spoonflower is but others seem adamant so maybe you should! Keep drawing them though, maybe you can use them as wallpaper for your blog.
ReplyDeleteyour drawings are awesome !!
ReplyDeleteVery talented, i'm impressed! :)
Wow, they are great - you should make some fabric out of it and get it printed -they are brilliant...!
ReplyDeleteYou're a trickster. Look at those gorgeous colourful birds. Keep those pencils where they'll be used.
ReplyDeleteWow! I would be happy to be able to draw even half as good as you!
ReplyDeleteLove them - the birds and the sweet cat. Whimsical and fun. Great for fabric and rubber stamps!
ReplyDeleteI really love your illustrations. They are fantastic. Love the birdies, love the catties. I want to see more!
ReplyDeleteI got a set of watercolor pencils for Christmas that I haven't tried out yet either. I don't have any thing in mind for them and my Christmas list was too short this year but they just seem like fun.
