Fawn / ILLUSTRATION

Yet again, I have to apologise for the lack of posts, I’ve been having scanner issues & have spent the last few days trying to fix it. As I didn’t really have the cash to buy a new one, and being a bit of a tech nerd, I really wanted to sort it out. It infuriates me when I can’t fix things, I guess this is down to coming from a family of ‘fixers’, if somethings broke one of us will be able to fix it, and I’m the tech one, so I spent the last few days determined to work out what was wrong, I contemplated taking it to bits to see what the problem was, but as it’s an all-in-one & the printer works fine, I didn’t want to risk it, so I caved & brought a new one…

I’m sure you’re probably noticing a little theme with the most recent illustrations, the fact I’ve become obsessed with circles & triangles. I’m putting this down to me spending a lot of time recently flipping through my Da Vinci book, as I can’t go to the exhibition at The National Gallery, it’s the next best thing, I’m telling myself that anyway, I’m seriously gutted to be missing it. Da Vinci used triangles & pyramids extensively in the composition of his paintings, they naturally draw the eye to the important aspects of the piece & invisibly mark out key areas, they are also one of those things that once you see them, you can’t unsee them & you then start noticing them all over the place!
