Twelve drawings are now complete, so the next stage will be working out how to put them together in a book. I think it will be a concertina, as this gives the opportunity to see the sequence of the images.
See the previous post (here) for more background to where the imagery for these postcard-sized drawings comes from. Below are the final six.
Fabulous Anna. I love the colours.

Thanks Anne – when I was posting these I realised how much red there is, but if I mix them up with the others I think they will all balance out nicely!

Amazing!! And I love that you travel so much. Are you always on the road or just take short trips every year? I wish I had someone to travel with like that! So cool! And your watercolour pens sound interesting can you tell me what they are called? Thanks!ā

We only travel when we can, it’s been a while since the last trip. I don’t use watercolour pens, just a waterproof pen, available anywhere, and a small travel set of watercolours, which are wonderful, very compact and easy to use. Made by Winsor and Newton.

A concertina would be perfect for such a set. Don’t you think the colours are Christmassy?! (I know that isn’t a word and the red underline as I type confirms this.) But I’m thinking how lovely a concertina of these little reds and greens would look displayed during that season – as the drawings are truly festive. Christmas in July. Indeed the objects themselves seem to dance on the pages, not unlike baubles.

Well, I did realise this set were very red, but I hadn’t thought of the Christmas angle … I think when they are mixed with the remaining six there with be less of that sense. I’m still working out just how I will present these, at the moment I am tossing around the idea of them sitting on a black background (still as a concertina), so each one is framed, but I will need to keep mulling that over. Thanks Julie, always good to hear your take!

I like to be busy – as long as I can keep track of everything! Thanks Rebecca – the ideas for just how I put this together are slowly bubbling away, hopefully it will all come together soon!
