More watercolours...

3 more illustrations with watercolour for the daily doodle group. Although they look simple, it took me ages to finish them. I really admire people who work with watercolours all the time.

This is for the letter Z

This is for the letter B

This is for the letter O

Colour collective - Brilliant violet

This week I decided to dust off my watercolours and once again give them a try. I've tried on other occasions to use them but became quickly frustrated by their unpredictability and by my lack of skill when using them. I remember that when I was at university I was taught all the different techniques and stuff, and I think that I did some nice paintings but after graduating I forgot everything I learnt :(
It didn't go too bad this time -I think!- 

K is for...

... is for flowery Koala of course!

N is for...

Colour collective - Ultramarine

Someone in twitter had the fantastic idea of creating the colour collective challenge. Last week's colour was ultramarine which as it happens is one of my favourite colours. I have lots of clothes that colour - are there ultramarine flowers?

Fernando the Fox

I really don't know why, but I looked at this fox and I just knew it was called Fernando. That's the kind of day I've had.

The letter F

The lunar new year is in a month's time and around here there're lots of red decorations everywhere. I think it's an auspicious colour for the Chinese, but I'm not sure so don't take my word for it. It's going to be the year of the sheep, though, not the year of the cat. I wish there was a year of the cat - they have the year of the tiger but you will agree with me that cats and tigers are very different. Anyway, here's a flowery cat for the letter F, a theme proposed by the guys of daily doodle on twitter. 

New year resolution

Hello and happy new year! I hope you're having a fantastic year so far. My resolution for 2015 was to open a Facebook page, something I've been thinking about for a while. I would be thrilled if you liked and followed me here  https://www.facebook.com/cocogigidesign
