This one is an A5, on black paper, painted entirely with the stylus. Chinese writing is silver, and means "joy"
Helen thought they were parrots!

They're sooooo pretty - and very oriental - love the colours It's not cheating to copy photos and things, we'd all have to have photographic memories to do things straight from our heads - think I remember reading somewhere even some of the great masters used to use those see-through grid things, which they held up against models and landscapes Got to get inspiration from somewhere
love x
