I've finally caught up with the commissions I received before Christmas - a bit of a slog, but worth it! This horse will be going to Greece once we have figured out a way to get him there safely and without enormous customs/tax charges.
This is a larger than usual painting, covers my whole drawing board, and is mixed media - watercolour, Derwent Coloursoft/Drawing pencils, and a touch of acrylic - on watercolour paper. It was quite an undertaking and I got a bit disheartened at one stage with the amount of face a horse has! However, it went well and I am very pleased with the completed painting.
I'm now free for a while - next commission doesn't have to be done straight away, so time to do a bity of my own work.
I've also just seen the rough layout for the new Nudinits pattern book - looks very good and some very cheeky designs in there for humans, not puppets! Watch this space for further updates.

What an accomplishment! That horse must have taken a lot of patience and attention to detail, especially considering the large size and the mix of media. It sounds like a real labour of love, and I can imagine how satisfying it must have been to finish it. I hope the shipping to Greece goes smoothly without too many hurdles—customs can certainly be tricky!
It’s great that you now have some breathing room for your own projects.
Wow!
