More of my faves from my everyday artworks

All sorts of Orange

I limited myself to black, white and variations of orange on Instagram this week. 

Picture at the bottom is a sneak peak at one of the colouring book pages from a new book out later this month with Michael O'Mara.

Red Berries

 Berries picked on my walk

Vintage Girls

Loved drawing these girls.  Taking so much inspiration from whoever the talented illustrator was for this 1930s shop catalogue.

 
Then adding my own version of some 1930's fabric.  Wish I'd hand painted the fabric instead of chickening out of messing up, and creating digitally.  Next time ....

Patterns flowing

This week I'm designing using Red for my Instagram pics

Although quite a lot of pink has sneaked into this one ...

Artwork for Amelia's Magazine

This is a little taster of my artwork for @ameliasmagazine open brief.  It looks like this is going to be an amazing colouring book!

Pink Week on Instagram

#paint365

I've just moved my Paint Every Day project to my regular Instagram account @jotaylordesigns 

There has been one major flaw with it so far as I didn't actually paint every day.

Here are some of my faves from the first attempt:

Beards
