phew! it's been a busy few days, trying to get everything sorted for going away + finishing off some commissions and stuff
i haven't slept properly since yesterday morning when i woke up... i always seem to stay awake 24hrs when i'm about to catch a boat anywhere... so i'm a little highly strung at the moment, to say the least
anyway, we (myself + my dear mama) finally made it to Coventry late this afternoon, it's been miserable weather lately but there was a colourful welcome waiting for us as we reached our destination
the picture really doesn't do it justice, it was such an incredible rainbow! a double one, and the arcs reached right back into 2 full rainbows, brilliant stuff!
i also have 2 new drawing things to share with you
i got bored in the small hours of this morning while a big thunder/lightning storm raged outside and so i drew some little Kokeshi dolls...
i also wanted to do something with my Matryoshka dolls but i'm not too sure of the result...
i think i prefer them by themselves!
other than that there's also the first in a series of 'possible' xmas card designs
i started the drawings for them all back in August just after i got back from my trip to Ireland, but despite listening to my 'Christmas Music' playlist on repeat all day, i just couldn't really get into the festive spirit so i abandoned them!
i'm attempting to take them up again now but i may end up leaving it, not sure yet!

oh oh AND when i arrived in Coventry i found an email waiting for me directing me to a nice little feature of my work from 'The Young Creatives'
Meet 20-year-old freelancerJADE BOYLAN.
When she’s not illsustrating/blogging/writing/designing, Jade can be found reading/baking/collecting/watching Formula 1. ‘I kind of suck at proper hobbies,’ she says although we could not disagree more.
Jade spends most of her money buying books. ‘When I’m not buying or reading books, I’ll probably be drawing, watching movies, or writing books of my own! Books, books, books!’
Oh, and one last thing: she just can’t STAND celery...
these are just the images from it, the actual interview bit was v fun to do, you can see the full feature + read it all here - TYC

tomorrow i think i'm off to see my big sister + my nieces and nephew so that should be suuuuper!
so until next time, that's all folks... ◕‿◕ ★ xX
