Hares by Robert Roskam

I bought this charming image from Robert Roskam's Etsy store in digital downloadabl format. He creates some truly delightful botanical and wildlife illustrations.  I used layers of Polychromos pencils for a simple, soft and summery look.

Art Movement Series Renaissance colouring book

I am enjoying colouring some of the images from this book. The artwork has some flaws (the artist is untrained and this is evident in many of the images) but the images are very charming and enjoyable to colour.

Girl with a Flute.  Watercolour plus coloured pencils.

Seashells from Menuet de Bonheur

Tombow, Letraset and Zig markers, plus a few touches of coloured pencil.

Happy Easter! Bunny by Rita Berman

I love pink and fresh green together, so it seemed a perfect colour scheme for this sweet and simple bunny picture from 'Mein Spaziergang durch die Fahreszeiten' by Rita Berman. Her books are great if you want to colour something quick and pretty.  I used watersoluble markers and coloured pencils.

Blossom and Bird by Rita Berman

Another simple but lovely page from Rita Berman's book 'Mein Spazeirgang durch die Fahreszeiten'.
I used watersoluble markers and coloured pencils.

The Flower Year.....Blue Tits and Catkins

Another charming illustration from Leila Duly's 'The Flower Year'.  Polychromos pencils again.

Pretty Pale Watercolours in Painterly Days Flower Book

Trying out some soft pale colours in Painterly Days. I used Inktense and Supracolor Watersoluble pencils. I think this might make a nice cover for one of my home-made sketchbooks.
