This was a bit of an experiment for me today. I decided to do a bit of mixed media and collage. I bought some textured paper and gave it a go!
The image that came into my head when I thought of 'Idle' was of this little old tortoise. In his early years he was a bit of a goer racing around from one thing to another but as time ticked on he became a bit idle. But that's not a bad thing he now gets to read the classics in his comfy chair!
Hey, thanks for visiting my blog and thus leading me to yours! I love your art!! Fun illustration for the topic - nice with the textured paper! :) Silke
