This last one is Rhys' master piece!
I finally managed to squeeze in an illustration Friday piece! This weeks word is Paisley and this is what I came up with. I started with a sketch of the girl and didn't know what I was going to do with her as she was just a doodle in front of the tele then I started adding paisley to her body and it grew into a tattoo like design, I then painted it with these new pastel acrylic paints that I picked up the other day and outlined the paisley design with coloured pen!
My eldest Rhys also had a go at the paisley design, I started him off and once he understood the concept had a great time with it!

OMG!!! Nic I absolutely LOVE this one! It's a very clever take on the word and Rhys' design is GREAT too. Love the smiley face! :o) xxx
I love your paisley girl! :) And Rhys' painting is so cool too! ☺☺☺
Nicola, this painting of yours is my favorite of your artworks to date - she is stunning, the tatts are amazing, I love the sky behind her - she is perfect in every way - LOVE IT! She would look stunning also as a tile pendant, a sort of tough mermaid! I hope you have framed this gorgeous illustration and it hangs proudly in your home. It is too lovely not to be shown off! Hugs, Val xo
ps Rhys' masterpiece is great :D - he has inherited his mom's artistic talent!
Hi, Nicola, this is a beautiful girl, tattooed-paisley. very nice.
I just love her!! She is so whimsical, and I love her eyes! I like how you used it as a tattoo design, very creative. Rhys' drawing looks great too, and I love the colors he used :) ~Lauren
I'm always amazed at what you come up with! I joined illustration friday and have yet done a painting...ugh, I take too long on everything!! Soon, hopefully soon I will feel more confident and let my creative wings fly!
Hugs to you!
This looks like a full body paisley tattoo and I just love it. The sketch was fab, but the painting is really wonderful. You are so very creative!
