This was inspired by a comment by a neighbour of @moonlightandmocha that the virus had caused us to change our lifestyle like a reset button. Do go read her insightful post. It’s the one before the lambs. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #editorialart #editorialillustration

I love this but it was more for fun really. Could wrap a present though! Take care this week everyone. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #giftwrap #wrapping #pattern #surfacedesign

Both cats and snails can now have red or navy backgrounds. I always love dark! Another birthday wrap? www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #cats #wrapping #pattern #fabric #surfacedesign

Thinking I’d like this as gift wrap. Maybe on a lighter blue background though. Hope everyone is staying sane! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #snails #pattern #fabric #surfacedesign

Black frame courtesy https://www.brusheezy.com/brushes/59529-beautiful-frame-brushes-collection but I had fun doing the rest myself. Now to discover how to use dried egg!! Strange times. Good for the brain 😀

War footing... war notice. And greetings to all mothers worried about their kids, young or old. And everyone worried about their mums and grans. Hang in there and help as much as possible x www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #editorialart #editorialillustration

Editorial illo. It might look like this but let’s not allow it to define who we are. We’re more than this! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #editorialart #editorialillustration

It would be super wonderful to claim I did this all by myself but I have to name #iornamentapp for the magic! You can also put it on a rotating sphere. Beats wine o’clock any day 😃

This would be the simple pattern from my lino cut tree post earlier. I’m hoping to think of a more complicated version eventually. Remembering all the extra hand washing is consuming some of my brain power though! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #wrapping #pattern #fabric #surfacedesign

Had another go at lino cut with the softcut printing block given to me by @thecarnelianwood. Hardly ace standard yet but I do like it. Nice quiet counter to all the “licensed looting” going on in the UK, which is so selfish. Now what shall I do with these trees????

And this is a colour pencil pair I did over lunch. It’s not a technical repeat, just dumped on as an idea. But it was fun and now I have three tiles to work on this week 😀

Just screenshots en route, hence fuzzy. Ps: to bring down cortisol levels induced by anxiety rearrange anything at all for half an hour. Even your cupboard contents!! Thinking of y’all in lockdown.

Watercolour. Professor Selina Todd of Oxford uni - modern history. Researches women and feminism in modern Britain. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #editorialart #editorialillustration #portrait #watercolour

Morning sketch and thought! Please don’t panic about hand sanitizer and alcohol wipes. Soap breaks down the shell of the virus and kills it.

Hopefully self-explanatory - otherwise I’ve failed. Hope you’re all handwashing and looking after your elderly where possible. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #editorialart #editorialillustration

You may have seen my landscape-filled butterflies the other day. Well play is essential to health so I took 200x100 px abstractions from the wings and made some in-your-face patterns! Now for lunch and a watercolour portrait session. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #abstractart #pattern #fabric #surfacedesign

I’m wondering what you think of these colours. Sometimes (often!)I am guilty of just doing what I like. I call it grape hyacinth spring in my mind. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #flowers #floral #pattern #fabric #surfacedesign

Not sure how finished this is but am happy so far. Lovely walk in sun just now. Maybe flowers really are going to spring forth up here! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #flowers #floral #pattern #fabric #surfacedesign

Wasn’t using some scrapbooking material I made so I’ve put it in a repeat for a seaside collection I’ll be working on. Hope the sun has come your way, as here 😃 www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #editorialart #editorialillustration #pattern #fabric #surfacedesign #travel

Watercolour. I gave myself only two hours from start to finish - which kinda proves I need longer to do a good version. The ochre wc pencil for the sketch was also a bad idea once I decided to do only shades of Payne’s grey! Ah well. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart #makeartthatsells #editorialart #editorialillustration #portrait #ghandi
