Isn't funny how things come about. This illustration began as a sketch of the girls easter present from my gran, (a duck and bunny on a bicycle), in front of the victorian dolls house, that g built over the easter weekend, almost three years after I gave it as a christmas present to bean & him.

I haven't been that happy with my sketching lately - it has been missing something.. a depth, a story, a little piece of my heart... I am finding my way back I think.

 I struggled with this weeks IF prompt... and in a way I suppose that was a journey in itself.

I sketched a couple of ideas

But I wasn't happy with them.

Finally in the last hours, I created this piece...

I am still not...well... I don't love it, and the colouring is rushed, but I do like how her dress turned out and the stained glass windows. And I would love nothing more to hope in a gypsy caravan, take off and explore the world again!

Have a great Easter break.

For years I existed... I was bottled.

I ignored my squeak.

I admired and envied those who were bold enough to live the creative life - of those who listened to their squeak.

Now... now I am braver, and trying to live the dream, to finally embrace the squeak.

It is time. I am uncorked, I am developing, deepening and evolving. I am un-bottled.

(Please excuse the photo - crap lighting and i-phone do not a great photo make! I will update when I am get home later this week)
