Stripes

Hello,
It's Friday evening here and after a busy working week I decided to sit down and give myself some "me" time.

For a long time now I have wanted to submit something to Illustration Friday. But to be honest I was nervous of putting my work out there in front of so many talented illustrators. But tonight, for some reason, it occurred to me that I should just do it! I know that these small steps are the product of a wonderfully inspiring e-course I have been involved in recently - Creative Courage run by Stephanie Levy. http://stephanielevy.blogspot.com/p/e-courses.html I whole-heartedly recommend this course to any artist, or  creative soul, whether they are creating work or not. It is a truly motivating course and I have enjoyed every moment. The course is extremely informative and also develops a wonderfully supportive community of like-minded people who happily extend the hand of friendship to support each other in their artistic endeavours. Thank you Stephanie for this opportunity, it has been life-changing!

  1. Hurray for creative courage! I LOVE the repetition of the spiral stripes and all of the variations on the theme. It has a nice sense of whimsy about it! Hope you continue to participate in Illustration Friday-- it's a great place to make new friends and be inspired!
