Bombus Terrestris (Bumblebee) Card Design

Just finished the bee illustration that I have been working on. I LOVED drawing the bee's hair, it was so much fun and such an amazing texture.

So my plans for this illustration is to turn it into a card for my Etsy shop (one of many card that I have ideas for). The theme will my take on 'You're The Bee's Knees', and there's a few more bits and pieces that I need to draw for this card before I put it together. I'll be posting updates with where I am at on this card design on Twitter. Next thing I'm going to be drawing is honeycomb!!

EDIT: May 2014
This design is now up for sale on my Zazzle Store: LINK
The store has a wide variety of products such as cushions, greeting cards, keychains and phone cases.

Bumblebee - Bombus Terrestris


Just a little sneak peak into a card I am making at the moment. I've always wanted to do more insect and botanical illustration, so I'm including bits and pieces in my work from now on. So this will a card with a bumblebee included within the design (the rest will be a surprise!).

I've enjoyed researching into bumblebees, especially when you have to type bombus (the scientific name for the bumblebee family) into search engines and giggle every time. And they are so cute!!!

I also am making more of an effort to update my twitter feed with little bits and bobs. The link to my twitter  is on the side of this blog if you would like to follow me! I'm also on facebook (and a bit more interactive on that), so if you would like to follow me on that here's the link: FACEBOOK

Ozlynn


This is a commission for LucidRequiem, of her doll Ozlynn. I've thoroughly enjoyed doing this piece, and have loved doing red hair. The make-up was so much fun to do as well. I've always wanted to draw a lace top as well, and when I saw Ozlynn I thought lace would suit her perfectly.

Eloise


So this is my new piece, another version of a hipster girl! This is my half of the collaboration with Jenni Sparks. Just putting it up here to show you that I am still alive and doing work! I've ordered a new scanner which I should have this weekend, so I'll be able to do a better scan of this and some close up details.

WIP LucidRequiem's Oz


This is a work in progress shot for LucidRequiem's doll called Oz. I've really loved working on this piece, I do have a love for red hair! The eye makeup has been very exciting to draw as well, it's not something I would usually do a lot of on my drawings but it has been so much fun I'll definitely try to do more interesting makeup in future!
