I got an assignment this week which fitted into the Illustration Friday theme - Old fashion :) I am doing some illustrations for the old nursery rhyme Three Little Kittens. So here is a painted sketch of the first scene where they have lost there mittens. It is also done the old fashion way - with a real paintbrush and paints :) The pic below is why I paint digitally at present :)
When I was out of the room my daughter decided it was time to practice writing her name :) Thank God for photoshop!Cheers

Aww bless your little one :) Children are able to fill you with pride and exasperation at the same time I know mine certainly does.
A lovely illustration and I like the version with your childs signature as well LOL.
This is so cute! I love her yellow dress.
How recognizable. I put my drawings always high up on a bookshelf. However, one day when my daughter was young I happily showed my husband a new book on how to teach reading, writing and arithmetic. The tiny super ears of my daughter picked that up and she thought it was a nice idea to show me she was already able to write.....in my new book (arrghhh!) A year later I had a good laugh on seeing her messy lines and now I still keep that book for sentimental reasons. So, please, keep your 'joined venture' one day you will smile at that sheet full of lovely illustrations.
She is coming along nicely
Thanks Chibi :) Yes exasperation and pride are in a constant battle:)
@Kelly, thanks for popping by. Yes I like the yellow dress too. A wet on wet effect.
@ Paula- yes I will keep it for prosperity ( or blackmail :) )
@ June - Yes her writing is coming along nicely. she practices all the time and enjoys it, although at times it is a bedtime delaying strategy. I wish the son was soo inclined to practice his.
what cute little kittens. How sweetly done!
Oh no, sorry about your daughter's handwriting on your page...YIKES!!! glad you were able to us Photoshop to fix...xxoo
Your kittens are too adorable. I love the one in the yellow dress, it looks like she saying, I have the slightest idea what happened to them, great stuff. I pretty much went digital for the same reason myself.
Thanks Heather :) I was happy it was just a sketch.
eh Missy Thanks :) Yeah I like the yellow dress too. It was the one I finished before daughter dear contributed lol
