Peri Peri: Art, Media & Development
Peri Peri, like WallFlower, had her beginnings as a very humble illustration.
Peri Peri: Original Digital Illustration/Drawing
Funny, when I first created her she got such rave reviews that I created a line sheet, integrating her into some of my original fashion designs.

But now that I have been spending more time developing her, I see so many things that she looks sick to me and that's what this particular post is really about: developing a work until it meets your own approval in every possible way.

WallFlower, it seems, has really developed a life of her own. What started out as a rather simple digital illustration has been developed on a range of substrates, changing her look with each new version. Here's the progression:

Pomme d'Amour: Garden Art: A work completed
With most of our major projects now complete, my husband and I have been spending quite a lot of time on our patio and he's been continuing to encourage me to add another piece of artwork to the set, telling me that the space between our storage fridge and the grill "seems a bit too bare".
After due consideration I agreed with him and we've been discussing the theme of the painting over the course of the last few days. Given that the primary use of the space is to be an outdoor dining room and entertainment area, I thought that a still life of vegetables and fruit might be the most appropriate and that the subject would balance well with The Farmer's Wife privacy screen.

Ginger Glass: Garden Art: A work completed
With Pluckin' Joyful now complete, I've begun the process of translating Ginger Glass from digital illustration to traditional media. Once completed she will be the queen of The Slate Garden Gallery, providing a visual bridge between her sisters, The Farmer's Wife [patio privacy screen] and Pluckin' Joyful.
As is usual, I am working from sketches and digital mock-ups.
HELP! Please... I think I need a website.
But before I hook it up I need a snazzy URL. Honestly, I think I'm all out of wit right now so I could really use your help. I have a list of particulars that I think are important and I need it to be an all encompassing portfolio-type of site for everything that I do.Pluckin' Joyful: Garden Art: Complete
If you've been following along in the VAFF or Su Casa groups, you already know that my husband and I have been actively engaged in a HUGE Garden and Patio Makeover project. Part of the Patio Project included creating a privacy screen, cut down to 6' wide by 4' high, from an 8' x 4' sheet of plywood. That 4' by 2' piece has now been put to work and used as a substrate for additional garden art, mountd on the wall of the work shed that my husband built in the summer of 2007.
