My design for some party stuff based on folk art from Bavaria. I dug out some of my food watercolours to put in mono in the background :) This was part of the Make Art That Sells course I've been doing with Lilla Rogers @lillarogers - it sure pushes you to break out of your comfort zone! This reminds me of a Scottish clan event! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #party #folkart
Freehand pen, doodled on an old bit of watercolour wash while waiting for bedtime to come along. I suppose I could digitally change the colours and keep the "wash" look if I wanted to use them in something else one day! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #lettering #watercolour
Just an idea! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #cartoon #Christmas #festive #officeparty
Contemplating! Might have to adjust the spangly jeggings/socks issue... www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells
This is why the other lady was doing the painting! Www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com
I can never resist colouring a sketch, so this is how she ended up :) www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells
Chores to do today - so giving the Magic Pencils a 5-minute outing before dashing! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #sketch #Magicpencils
It has its faults, I expect, but it was fun passing a foggy day making something that didn't exist before! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #editorialart #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #dailyart #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart  #vintage
Woke up to find huge watercolour candles in the 'wet in wet' garden ;) www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #editorialart #artdirector #editorialillustration #watercolour #candles
A design for a block of square notes. Exploring my muted side, obviously! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram #notepaper #stationery
My map of the nearest village to us. All the photos are mine to do with what I like! So I did this :) It was the greatest fun - I didn't really want to tackle Newcastle which is the nearest city and 30 miles south. Maybe I will print and sell this to the many tourists :) www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram #makeartthatsells #map #otterburn #redesdale #otterburnmill
My first experiment with designing scrapbooking papers and icons. This was for part of the MATS B course taught by @lillarogers - a bit out of my comfort zone as I have never scrapbooked (as they mean it now). Tried to give it a vintage look with dotty textures like old comics, plus old papers and coins etc. 12x12" so it will be a bit small here! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #holiday #scrapbooking #travel
I made my squirrel family into a repeating pattern The background can be any colour. I just chose this one to make it sort of 'rich'. Possible bolt fabric pattern. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #boltfabric #surfacepattern #squirrels
Isn't it fun to make something that wasn't there before? I was going through vintage lace flowers etc inherited from my mum and scanned a couple of pieces to make a bolt fabric pattern It's really cream and off-white but you can put the repeat pattern on any background in any blend mode. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector  #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #boltfabric #pattern #lace

My cover design for the book written by @zoe_tucker_design for the #MATSICB5 course which finishes this week. I tried to show both the relationship they had and the fact Gran is now dead but still remembered and inspiring (I refuse to say "passed on" or "not with us now" - we die!!) Hope you like it. www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #artdirector #media #painting  #artistsoninstagram #illustrationart  #MATSICB5 #lettering #picturebookart
Last night i assembled some of the animals I've inked over time and collaged them on different parts of the same wet-in-wet watercolour sheet I scanned in. Might try making them a repeat pattern when I've time! And, you know that feeling when something niggles? Well, I might re-do the penguin. He's irritating my eye!! www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #artdirector #editorialillustration #illustrationartists #media #painting #artistsoninstagram  #makeartthatsells #animals #watercolour #collage #pattern
Bit rough and ready but I like drawing sort-of resemblances of famous people. Should really have been tweaking the cover submission for the #MATSICB5 course I have nearly finished. But here you have... well, I shouldn't have to tell you *gulp*... www.eleanorpatrickillustration.com #art #artwork #artist #illustrator #illustration #drawing #editorialart #artdirector #editorialillustration
