Wilderness - IF

Wilderness -

Roaming in the wilderness,

exploring and discovering,

Lilly was looking for some new friends but she just couldn't get close enough,

before they got to scared!!!

(My little girl and her Uncle Kai made some lovely playdough creatures and I just had to give them a background, they were so full of character so I used my graphics tablet and had some fun! I just hope she doesn't eat them hehe! Comments more than welcome ... x)

Confined - IF

Each little flower fairy in her own little box,

Confined for lack of a background,

Within her own little space!

(outline drawn on paper and transfered to the computer using a graphics tablet where I coloured and mounted them. I am very new to using the graphics tablet so any advice is very much appreciated!)

Infinite - IF

My love for him is infinite,

His kiss had started it

My unborn baby sealed it

My love for him is infinite!

(I'm really new at digital work but had alot of fun designing a background, I know it needs alot of work but I suppose practice makes perfect! Please let me know your thoughts on my image, good or bad!)

Strong - IF

If you struggle and give up it shows weakness!

If you struggle but persist to the end, to the best of your ability,

No matter how poor that ability may be,
Then you are STRONG!

I struggled to finish this mini project ( a birthday gift for my daughters Great-Grandad!) but I saw it through to the end and am now rather proud of the work! Perseverance has made me stronger and built up my confidence to try longer projects in the future!

What do you think, did my perseverance pay off? Any tips on watercolours or typology will be very appreciated! thanks Sam x

Magnify - IF

Jengy studied for hours and hours, he really wanted to win first prize at the science fair this year after coming second last year with his invention of mono-celled organisms. He had been up all night preparing but their was still something missing!

Five minutes before the fair opened he suddenly realised just what he needed, stars! lots and lots of stars to make his universe sparkle and shine!

Caution - IF

I tell her stories,

Try to teach her morals,

That her dreams will come true,

If she holds on till tommorrow.

To teach her of love,

To teach her of caution,

I tell her these stories,

Simple truths with distortion!

I have recently begun using watercolour and need alot of practice but I'm really enjoying it! Comments and suggestions are very welcome!

Wrapped - IF

My name is Lilly Summer.

Mummy and Daddy like to keep me warm ALL the time!

When I wake up Mummy helps me put my clothes on.

When we go out Daddy wraps me in my coat AND my hat AND my mittens AND then he even puts a blanket around me in my pram!

When we get home Daddy takes my outside clothes off and gets me ready for bed in lovely loose pjamas,

Then Mummy wraps me up again in my sleeping bag!

Thats why I love bathtime, I get to be naked!

Until I'm wrapped in my towel!
